Clear water and jade in the Red Chamber

"

"Well, it's easy. It's the daughter of an old acquaintance of you and me, the only daughter of Lin Ruhai, the inspector of salt. Her name is Daiyu. Daiyu, what a good name!" Standing up, she took the mask aside and put it on her face again. .The copper mask, expressionless, tightly covered the entire face.

"Oh! The daughter of the famous beauty Jia Min back then! I want to..." Someone began to think about it.

"Dare! Before I decide how to repay my kindness, you go cool off! Don't forget the Hedong lion behind you." The faint tone is unquestionable, still casual: "Master Yilin's temper, if you know how to mention him, the first thing you think of is His wife hasn't messed up the salt transportation in the south of the Yangtze River."

"Hey, I can't say that. Jia Min's reputation back then was well known in the capital. Lin Ruhai is also a high school student in Tanhua. She is a talented man and a beautiful woman. If I mention it, I should be proud. How can I lose my temper!" The fan closed, full of confidence. full of smiles.

"Your Majesty, it's getting late, where should the holy driver rest? According to the rules, the emperor should move to Li Shuyuan's place at Zhu Jinge tonight." A figure knelt at the gate of the garden, with a penetrating thin voice, holding A booklet, selected by day.

The person who was still laughing immediately froze, why is he going to bed at this time!

"Now, it's time for me to see your jokes! Today is gentle, tomorrow will be stormy." He gathered his silver-green robe and walked out of the courtyard without looking back.

"Slave sends the prince of Beijing a thousand years old, thousand years old!" A group of eunuchs outside the courtyard knelt on both sides, illuminating the stone path, their tall backs flickering with the flickering candlelight, mysterious and unusual.The prince hasn't appeared for a long time, and now that he's gone, he doesn't know when he will enter the palace.

"Brother Huang...you can't go and sue..." With a helpless call, I will be finished tomorrow...Daughter of Lin Ruhai, no wonder there is Snow Lotus Jade Flower Pill, Brother Huang is so lucky.

007 visit

The weather is getting colder and colder every day, and in a blink of an eye, Daiyu has been in Beijing for several months. She is protected by Jia Mu and accompanied by her sisters and brothers all day long. Although it is very lively, when everyone goes to the house, the But doubly lonely.I don't know if it's what the old lady meant, but now Zijuan is monopolizing all the work around her, Xueyan tried to intervene several times but couldn't get in, and only complained to Daiyu when there was no one else.

In the fall, she is not in the right shape, or maybe she is not acclimatized to the environment. Although she has lived there for a while, she is still not used to it. Daiyu will fall ill every few days. During her illness, she is most likely to be homesick. She vomits medicine once every time she cries, and she repeats it again and again. After tossing and tossing, although I have seen better in recent days, I have lost a lot of weight.Seeing that Rili was with Baoyu, they didn't think about eating and drinking together. Mrs. Wang saw it anxiously, but it happened that a letter from Xue's family came, and Mrs. Wang saw the light immediately, and she became energetic for a while.

"Xueyan, do you have a letter from your father?" Daiyu asked once when she thought of it. Did not see.

"Miss, it's the master's letter. Naturally, it's addressed to the second master or the old lady. I'm afraid she got the news before I do." Xueyan looked everywhere for Daiyu's maple leaf earrings, but couldn't find them. I don't know where the azaleas have gone, really!

"Master Lin must be in good health, so why should you worry about it, the second master sent people a lot of goodies this morning, why don't you take a look?" Without any explanation, Zijuan helped Daiyu to sit at the table, and took out some goodies from among them. Playing around with a rooster pecking at rice.Swaying gently from side to side, a rooster kept pecking at the rice plate in the middle, very cute.

Seeing Daiyu looking happy, Zijuan seemed unintentional, and said slowly: "This Second Master Bao is really the strangest thing. He is said to be a master, but he has no airs. He treats girls very well. But no matter what It’s a good idea, including these girls, but I don’t see him treating others as much as he treats girls.”

Xueyan only raised her head to look at Zijuan when she heard the words, but said nothing.

"Second elder brother is a careful person. I am sick these days, but he visits me every day. This kind of affection is determined." Daiyu touched this, played with that, and couldn't put it down.

"Speaking of it, the girl and the second master Bao, one is the direct grandson of the relatives, and the other is the granddaughter who is connected by blood and blood. They couldn't be closer!" Zijuan said happily, and suddenly saw Xueyan looking at her, and suddenly realized that there was something wrong with her. Impatient, he hurriedly said: "Thinking about it, the most favored people in this mansion are not the girl and Second Master Bao. If the girl is happy, Master Lin will naturally be happy."

"Brother-sister relationship, that's all!" Daiyu has no siblings. Recently, Baoyu's concern and Sanchun's love have made her feel the deep family affection. Although her body is weak, her spirit is very good.

"Sister Yuanyang is here!" Chunxian announced while rushing to open the curtain? "Miss Lin is safe?" Yuanyang bowed to salute.

"Sister Yuanyang, what wind brought you here!" Zijuan laughed, and hurriedly took the cup outside and poured tea.

"What's the wind, the east wind!" Yuanyang was not polite, warmed her hands on the small stove at the door, and leaned forward to pull Daiyu, looked up and down, and greeted: "How is the girl? The old lady ordered me to come Look at the girl. Last night, the Taishi Manor sent someone to deliver a letter. The Taishi ordered to go to the mansion to visit the girl. Because it was too late, I didn't bother to disturb her. I just wanted to see if the girl looked better, and the Taishi's order would not be in vain. love."

"This... How can Daiyu afford it!" Daiyu was also quite surprised, and hurriedly asked Xueyan to prepare clothes.

"Don't be in a hurry, I won't be there until noon. The old lady has some fruits for the girl. Zijuan will come with me and get them back." Yuanyang pulled Zijuan away affectionately. some.

"Girl, this Zicuckoo will be good to the second master every day, and the second master is wonderful." Xueyan managed to find out the earrings and snorted.

"Second elder brother doesn't like to read sage books, but he is kind. Zijuan has always been a servant of the Jia family. Although he says he is good, he is not from the Lin family." Daiyu swayed to the desk and said, "It doesn't matter if it's good or bad. Forget it, grandma saw it too, it's time to go back to the south." Then, he took out the letterhead and began to write.

"From my point of view, it's not clear whether the girl's previous letters have been sent. What if the old lady doesn't want the girl to go back to the south? Unless the master comes to pick her up in person..." Xue Yan pondered.

Daiyu was taken aback for a moment, and realized something. She forgot to lift the stroke, and the ink stained half of the letter paper...

Not long after noon, I heard an announcement from the messenger in front that the carriages and horses of the Grand Master's Mansion had arrived at the main gate, and specially instructed the old lady and Miss Lin not to go out to meet them, and just treat it as a visit.Having said that, Mrs. Xing Wang, You Shi, Qin Keqing and the girls finally dressed up to welcome them out of the second door.The grand master ordered to come, no matter Ning Rong, everyone wants to get some glory.

Jia Lian and Jia Rong led people to drive away the small traders at the gate of the mansion, got off their horses and stood aside respectfully bowing to the chariot and horse team.

The purple felt sedan chair that is commonly carried at home is surrounded by suede with auspicious and dark patterns of gold thread. There were three pairs of maids leading the sedan chair, followed by three pairs of mothers, followed by carriages, horses, gift boxes, etc., which took up half the length of the street.

The guards walked to the main entrance of Rong Mansion and stood on both sides, while the bearers carried the sedan chair directly into the main entrance.After the team had completely entered the main gate, Jia Lian and others ordered people to guard the street entrance, and hurriedly turned into the mansion to obey orders.

The sedan chair went straight to the outside of the second gate, and all the female relatives saw the sedan chair coming, and hurriedly adjusted their clothes. Zhou Rui's family hurriedly whispered a few words into Mrs. Wang's ear. Mrs. Wang frowned, looked anxiously at the west side, and then turned around. But the face saw that the sedan chair had come to the front and landed, and he was busy preparing to bow down.

On the three blue-cloth sedan chairs at the back, six women got on and off, moved the footstools left and right, and respectfully invited the master to get off the sedan chair.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, the two big girls sitting at the mouth of the sedan chair got out of the sedan chair first, and then helped out the person in the sedan chair one by one on each side.

The one on the left is wearing a crimson satin trimmed cloak. He is in his 40s. There are no complicated patterns and colors in the clothes, but the texture is first-class.With fair skin, slightly plump cheeks, and dignified eyebrows, she must be the wife of the Grand Master.The person on the right has a light yellow cloak, embroidered with a pattern of white birds facing the sun. He is about fifteen or sixteen years old. He is tall, healthy and plump, with a melon-seeded face, almond-shaped eyes, thick eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and an air of arrogance between his brows.The temperament of the two is graceful and noble.

Today is not a formal occasion, and the Jia family naturally sorted it according to the seniority of the family. Mrs. Xing and Mrs. Wang led all the female relatives to come forward and salute.

"No, no, I'm anxious to see Miss Lin, these laborious gifts are unnecessary!" Mrs. Tai Shi was a little impatient, and hurriedly waved her hands, and there was no one else in her eyes.

"Yes! Madam Xie! Madam, this way please!" Madam Xing hurriedly stretched out her hand to lead the way, and all the female relatives followed into the courtyard.

Daiyu supported Jiamu and waited outside the main room door. Seeing that his wife had come in, she hurriedly greeted her and said hello.

"No, no!" Mrs. Taishi hurried forward to help Jia Mu with one hand, and Daiyu with the other. She looked up and down, couldn't hide her excitement, and said, "This is Miss Lin!"

"It's the old granddaughter Lin Daiyu!" Mother Jia replied with a smile, and looked at Daiyu with satisfaction.I saw her wearing a pink and blue multicolored cotton satin pleated skirt embroidered with plum blossoms in moon white. It was formal and grand, elegant and light, like a lotus flower.

Embarrassed by the Taishi's wife, Daiyu bent down and said a blessing, took the opportunity to turn her face away, but found that the girl accompanying the Taifei was also looking at her with a smile, her intimacy doubled, and she couldn't help smiling.

Seeing Daiyu smile, the girl also tilted her head and made a grimace, then simply stretched out her hand to pull Daiyu, and said generously: "I like this younger sister!"

"Li Yang, don't be rude
