Love of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

Chapter 1 Apprenticeship

"Brother Zhong, come and deliver the food!"

Zhong Chu put down the two fresh vegetables he had picked, wiped his face casually with a sweat towel, and then replied sullenly.

"My father is not well, so I will send it for him today."

Zhong Chu was tall and burly, and his body was born with supernatural strength, so it was very easy for him to eat green vegetables.It's a strange day, the sun is so hot that the human skin is hot, but Zhong Chu has been tanned for a long time, and he can't see it after more sun exposure, but the sweat is flowing like he doesn't want money, Zhong Chu's throat is dry and burns uncomfortably .

Lin Butler stood under the eaves where the sun couldn't reach him. He wanted to ask his servants to pick up the vegetables as in the past and look at Zhong Chu, but he changed his mind.

"Brother Zhong, help me pick the dishes to go to the kitchen, and I'll treat you to a bowl of tea later." Lin Butler ordered the servant to lead Zhong Chu in. "I'll pour you Xiao Zhong a bowl of herbal tea later, it's not easy in this hot weather."

Zhong Chu also knew the housekeeper's good intentions, and he also wanted to finish this matter quickly and go back to do other things. It was originally Zhong's father who came, but it was too hot, and Zhong's father was suffering from heatstroke, so he didn't dare to let Zhong's father run outside , he was afraid that his mother would grab his ear and nag again later!

After Zhong Chu drank the herbal tea, his throat didn't feel so dry. After repeatedly ensuring that he remembered the way out of the mansion, he bid farewell to the boy who poured him tea, and walked slowly along the shaded porch.While walking, I got lost and came to a small pool.

The sunlight reflected in the water made him almost unable to open his eyes. He closed them and opened them again. There was a little girl sitting by the pool. Although her eyebrows were frowning, she was incredibly beautiful.Even in the 21st century, where the Internet information is developed, Zhong Chu has never seen anyone more beautiful than this little girl, no matter how many p-map software beautify the filters.The little girl was pretty, and Zhong Chu had no eccentricities, so it was impossible for her to have any thoughts about a four or five-year-old girl. After looking at her twice, she turned around and wanted to go back to the fork in the road just now.

"who?"

Lin Ruhai followed Jia Yucun and chatted in the gazebo next to the small pond. When he looked up, he was amazed. There was a face-faced boy staring at his precious daughter. When was the management of the Lin Mansion so loose that outsiders could come and go as they please!

"Master is well. This boy is Zhong Chu, a villager from Tongfu Village. He is delivering food to Lin's mansion. He is about to leave the mansion after delivering food, but he doesn't want to get lost. Butler Lin knows him..." Being caught, Although Zhong Chu could see the master-slave relationship between the two, he couldn't be sure who was the master of the family, so he could only say "the master" in general.Blaming him for being too troublesome is a big excuse. If the boy sent him out, nothing would happen.

Although Zhong Chu was not afraid to let Lin Ruhai see him better, but he was not so easy to be fooled, so he ordered the servant to call the housekeeper.

"This Zhong boy is calm and composed, he is a talent." Jia Yucun stroked his beard, glanced at Zhong Chu, picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.

"How old are you? Have you ever studied?" Lin Ruhai is not an unreasonable person. Although Zhong Chu stared at his precious girl, he also noticed that her eyes were clear, and there was no blasphemy in her admiration.

"Back to the old man, the boy is fifteen years old. When he was young, he studied in front of Mr. Song, a scholar in the village. Now he is studying in the government school." Zhong Chu replied sternly, without saying a word, but in reply.Lin Ruhai in front of him was upright and majestic, his eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts, and his white robe softened the sharpness, but it couldn't make people think that he was a good-natured person.

"Fover school? The young master is already a student? You are really a young talent, and the scholar who delivers the food is indeed interesting, interesting." Jia Yucun put down his teacup, clapped his hands and laughed.

Zhong Chu's face was flushed red, but his face was dark, so others couldn't tell whether he was red or not.

"master!"

When Zhong Chu was embarrassed, Lin Butler finally came, and he left in a hurry, before he could catch his breath, he respectfully saluted Lin Ruhai.

"Lin Bo can recognize Zhong Chu." Lin Ruhai didn't beat around the bush, and went straight to the point.

"I know him. He is Zhong Dali's only son. He has delivered food with Zhong Dali several times in the past. This child is filial. Today Zhong Dali is not feeling well, so he brought it here by himself." Lin Butler paused, and then said: "It's a big day today, so the younger one decided to let him into the mansion and treat him to a cup of herbal tea."

Lin Ruhai didn't speak, and the tea cup was buckled on the tea bowl.

From the corner of Zhong Chu's eyes, he secretly looked at the three of them.

Jia Yucun's business was none of his business, Lin Ruhai was so sullen that he didn't know what he was thinking, but the steward Lin watched his heart, Lin Ruhai did whatever he did.

"Zhong Chu, would you like to be my student?"

What?Zhong Chu was taken aback for a moment, and his face was also dumbfounded.He was a little confused about the current situation, even if he was a young talent, he wouldn't directly accept him as a disciple!

Lin Ruhai was amused by his appearance, and a smile appeared on his face.

"I am willing!" Although I don't understand, but the Lin family sees a big family and a great career, and there is a powerful master who will help him in his future career, and the other party is also a powerful person. "Master, please drink tea!" Zhong Chu hurriedly poured a cup of tea, and served it to the other party respectfully.

"My surname is Lin, my first name is Hai, and my character is Ruhai. From now on, I will study Muxiu in the mansion, and you will come to the mansion." Lin Ruhai was very satisfied with Zhong Chu's attitude, took the tea, and took a sip.

When Zhong Chu heard that the other party was called Lin Ruhai, his heart felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The master was a good master, but he was short-lived... Isn't that little girl just now the sister Lin who lived to repay her tears and finally died when her tears dried up? !Zhong Chu instantly felt a pain in the ass. He watched "Dream of Red Mansions" no less than a dozen times, and every time he saw Sister Lin dying of tears, he felt sad and unconvinced. But it has penetrated into the world of the Red Mansion.Zhong Chu had a smile on his face and his heart was full of tears. Now that he has come, he has worshiped Lin Ruhai as his teacher. No matter what, he must protect Sister Lin from her final fate. As for Lin Ruhai, it will depend on him ten years later. Is it true that he died of illness or someone wanted him to die of illness.

"I was supposed to let you meet your teacher's mother and Yu'er to recognize them, but today is urgent, and you will come later." Lin Ruhai also knew that it was too hasty to suddenly recognize a disciple, but his youngest son died young last year, and his wife Jia Min was ill again, and his aunts did not leave him a son and a half daughter. It would be too lonely and helpless for Daiyu to be alone. What's unexpected? Zhong Chu might not be Daiyu's backer.

"The student knows, master. The student is going home first. After a long time, I am afraid that the parents at home will worry, and such a happy event needs to be announced at home."

"Go, Lin Bo, send Ah Chu off." Zhong Chu swallowed a mouthful of bitter tears when he heard Lin Ruhai address him, but fortunately his name was not Ah Zhong...

When he got home, he gulped down the mung bean soup prepared by his mother, and Zhong Chu told the two old people the whole story of his apprenticeship.Zhong's father and Zhong's mother marveled at his good fortune again and again, Zhong Liushi took Zhong Chu to go to worship Buddha, Zhong Chu hurriedly stopped her, it was too hot, it is better to go tomorrow.Mr. Zhong thought that the day after tomorrow would be a formal teacher apprenticeship, so he walked back and forth in the room anxiously, thinking about what kind of teacher apprenticeship ceremony he should prepare.

Zhong Chu worshiped Mr. Song as his teacher when he was a child. In fact, he sent Shufu to the school with the children in the village to learn how to read with Mr. Song.Later, Mr. Song said that Zhong Chu had a talent for reading when he was older. The Zhong family gave Mr. Song a pig hind leg, a piece of green cloth and a bunch of money, and the apprenticeship was completed.But who is Lin Ruhai, the doctor of Lantai Temple, although he doesn't know how high an official he is, but his family's wealth is probably not enough to send out.Father Zhong was in a hurry, so he lit a cigarette and took a sip. When Liu saw that he was smoking again, he twisted his ears and began to lecture. Zhong Chule was at ease, and sneaked back to his room to take a nap.
