Yucuo of the Red Chamber

"What are you looking at? I haven't seen you for a few days. Did you forget, or is there a flower on my face?" Daiyu looked at Xichun with a smile and asked.

"What's so good about flowers, I'm afraid they can't compare to Sister Lin. I was thinking, I can't get enough of Sister Lin's appearance. In the future, I don't know that there will be such a lucky brother-in-law Lin who can look at her every day. Or if we get a chance, we can often be together in the future, and we can see Sister Lin more." Xichun was a little joking at the beginning, but after a few words, there was a trace of desolation and emotion.

Daiyu thought she was talking nonsense at first, and wanted to annoy her, but she just listened to her tone, and suddenly cooled down, twisting the quilt, nodded slowly, looked at Xichun and said: "The current situation is that after today, I don't know tomorrow. Yes. You and I are both boudoir daughters, so what can we do? The third younger sister used to say that she wanted to start a career, but I don't think so."

"That's not necessarily true." Speaking of Tanchun, Xichun couldn't help but sneer, "Her ambition hasn't started yet, isn't it too early for Sister Lin to say that?"

"Oh? What does Fourth Sister mean by that?" Daiyu didn't quite understand.

"Did Sister Lin forget that the third sister is waiting to enter the palace to be a concubine. That year when the second elder brother celebrated his birthday, you took advantage of the name to play. I heard that the third elder sister took an apricot lottery, saying that she would get a noble son-in-law in the future." , probably also a princess. No, if you become a concubine, wouldn’t it be fulfilled? Looking at the current situation, this year’s draft, the second wife is confident, waiting for the third sister to enter the palace, she is the aunt of the two princesses Who can match wealth?" Xichun said with a smile.

"Well, I remember something like this. According to the third sister's character and demeanor, it's not difficult to keep her in the palace, and with the elder sister taking care of her, it's probably pretty safe. What does the fourth sister mean by that?" Dai Yu thinks about it and thinks that Xichun must have something to say.

Xichun took a sip of the tea offered by Zijuan, looked at Daiyu for a long time before smiling and said, "Sister Lin is sick now, and she's becoming more and more lazy. She doesn't know anything about these things. I heard that this There were some accidents in the mansion again, I don't know. Recently, she was the only one who saw the guests at the New Year's wine, and she also went out as a guest by the way, which was very popular with everyone. But I heard that others were also very strange. They were all busy in middle age Few people keep their daughters in the mansion in order to welcome them, but in our mansion, there are only three of them, how could this outsider not want it?"

Speaking of this, Xichun stopped talking, teasing people's appetites, Daiyu was not very good, Zijuan and Xueyan Chunxian were very curious, as if they were listening to a story.Seeing Xichun shut up, Zijuan said: "This engagement has to be proper. Although I heard that there are many engagements in Duzhong, if there is no one suitable for our house, the family is not right, so naturally we can't catch up with this excitement. .”

Xichun said: "Sister Zijuan wants to know more than this, right?" Zijuan hurriedly found an excuse and left after saying a word.

Xueyan said: "The girl in the family's mansion enters the palace only to be a maid, that is, a girl, who is similar to us, so naturally she is reluctant. But our mansion is different, as long as she can enter the palace, it is probably a ready-made empress waiting for her. It's a pity to go to someone else's house, of course the family is not the right one." Ordinary people only have such a little thought, so they are not afraid that people will not know if they can do it.

Xichun nodded and sneered, "Yes, let's take a step back. The Jia family sent in three girls, so we can't leave none of them behind. Sister Lin has always been weak and sick, so she should be sent back. I'm young and It’s not as good as the third sister’s literary talents. She should come back. Even if the emperor doesn’t care about the face of the eldest sister, he should also take care of our ancestors’ face and keep her. Such a sure thing, who can’t figure it out. Sister Lin probably doesn’t You know, at this moment, many things in the mansion are in the hands of the third sister.

The second sister-in-law is too busy, the second sister-in-law Bao has never been married, and the eldest sister-in-law is a widow, so it is inconvenient to arrange weddings, so naturally it is the third sister who is in charge of the house to help, so that the second wife can worry less.It seems that the meaning is to let the third sister have more experience, so that she can cope with everything after she leaves the cabinet in the future.There is such a capable third girl in our house, but everyone praises her.Even the servants now treat her as a housekeeper and are very flattering. "

"So, the third sister can do a great job in the mansion?" Daiyu suddenly laughed.

"No, so in the future, elder sister Lin should be more polite when she meets third elder sister, so as not to make herself feel uncomfortable. In the past, although the second sister-in-law was very good at servants, she was not bad to us sisters. The third elder sister is much more powerful than the second sister-in-law now. Not to mention the embarrassment of the old housekeeper for many years, Aunt Zhao was suppressed to death, and even the second sister-in-law has to give her three points." Xichun said lightly.Zijuan and Xueyan also nodded in agreement, thinking that this housekeeper girl is really good, even better than the temporary housekeeper last time.

Fortunately, Daiyu just lives her own life in peace, and in the current situation, she doesn't want to do anything to anyone.Xichun joked with Daiyu again, seeing that Daiyu was weak and didn't have much strength to speak, and it was getting late, so she resigned from Daiyu and went back.

After seeing off Xichun, Xueyan came to help Daiyu to lie down. Seeing that Daiyu didn't feel sleepy at all, she presumably slept too much during the day.Zijuan is still busy outside, calling the girls and women to clean up, while Xueyan comes in to serve Daiyu, think it's better to talk to Daiyu, or tell her what happened yesterday, so that Daiyu won't worry about it.

Xueyan also has a solid eye, and she tells Daiyu everything she needs.She had swallowed her breath when she heard that, Daiyu couldn't help the tears from the corners of her eyes, Xueyan also shed tears, the master and servant were both chilled and worried about those people and things.Hearing that she happened to meet a miracle doctor, Daiyu couldn't help but shed tears and asked, "You mean you just met?"

"Well, I think it's probably God's will. If it wasn't for the miracle doctor, the old lady in front didn't care, and if the grandma thought that the girl was really dying like other nuns, it would be a disaster." Xue Yan sighed again. It is proud again.

Daiyu felt warm in her heart.Although she never cared about it, but she died once, and someone brought her back to life like this, that kind of feeling is hard for others to understand.In the midst of being happy, Xueyan asked how the genius doctor saved her. Daiyu blushed instantly, pointed at Xueyan and said, "What are you talking about?! He's still holding... me? Why don't you strangle me to death? !"

Xueyan hurriedly covered Daiyu's mouth, and quickly stopped saying: "Miss, don't yell, keep your voice down. The girl's body is cold, and the quilt is not warm. If the genius doctor doesn't do that, wouldn't the girl be frozen to death? In the book The fact that Liu Xiahui was in trouble, the miracle doctor was just the doctor's parents' heart, a kind heart, and no frivolous intentions. And I was the only one watching, and Chunxian just came in to make the bed, and I didn't know what was going on. Besides, there was no No one else knows."

Even so, Daiyu blushed and her heart beat endlessly.Fortunately, no one else knew about it for a while, otherwise she would really be dead this time.Xueyan saw that she was fine, so she told her how the miracle doctor gave her needles, vomited, massaged and washed her feet, and how she brought bedding, etc. Daiyu buried her face in the quilt, so ashamed that she refused to come out .

Suddenly, Daiyu hurriedly lifted the quilt again, grabbed the quilt and smelled it, yes, it was the faint lotus fragrance, which was exactly his smell, floating intermittently, like a strange dream, in her mind Ripples come.

"What's the matter, girl? It's cold now, don't catch a cold." Xueyan hurriedly covered Daiyu with the quilt again, and whispered, "Girl, I think that miracle doctor is really kind to you. I have a heart of ice. I don’t want to disturb you. To say something I shouldn’t say, although there are not many men in the world, but they accompany girls to study, and they hear a lot of rumors in the boudoir. There are really few who can be like him. Several times They all saved the girl when it was critical, and they handled things properly, and Eunuch Dai and Prince Beijing took care of her. I think he is a very reliable person. Girl, don't worry about it too much, if it is really destined, it's not bad."

"You girl, you just said a few words and you went crazy. Could it be that you've grown up and wanted to go out?" Daiyu heard about Lianxiang, and she had some intentions in her heart, but when Xueyan said this, she felt ashamed for a while, Cursed bitterly.

It's just that although Xueyan doesn't talk much at ordinary times, she has thought about what she said, and she is not afraid. Seeing that Daiyu blushed, not because she was angry, she stopped her mouth and let her think about it.The words have come to this point, it is useless to say more, and if you ask for more, I am afraid it will backfire.

Let's say that Daiyu slept for a whole day, woke up and listened to Xichun's words, and was told by Xueyan again, in the morning, she was so tired that she fell asleep like a dream.In the dream, the nose is full of lotus fragrance, and his shadow is lingering.

Let's not mention this matter for now, let's say that yesterday Beijing Jing Wang Shui Rong accompanied the Buddha to the Grand View Garden to enjoy, and today he had another day of banquets, and now he calmed down under the clear light of the moonlight night, but he was full of thoughts. Can't figure it out.

If you say that he comes from a noble family, is a romantic person, knowledgeable and sensitive; at a young age, he holds great power and has a good marriage. He accounts for [-]% of the benefits in this world.What's more, he is still quite appreciated by the emperor. In the hereditary succession of princes and dukes with different surnames, he can be said to be the best among them.Although he cared about the face of the family and always tolerated his body, it was hard to beat his noble status and he was especially respected.

It's just that things in the world are not always satisfactory, and it's still a matter close to him, that is, a matter in the room.Although a beautiful wife and concubine, virtuous and virtuous, it is always difficult to be considerate.What's more, the concubine was also born as a duke. Although she followed the general rules of square and radius, the concubine didn't care if they couldn't get along well.Not long after they got married, Shui Rong thought it was unfamiliar, but it has been several years now, and it is still the same.At a young age, at the time of courtship, the one who married was a princess instead of his confidant, so he was naturally displeased.

Although there are a few concubines who are gentle and gracious, with both talents and colors, they are always unsatisfactory.The so-called confidant is hard to find, and it is even more difficult to find a confidant.In today's world, the defense of men and women is far better than usual.During the Han and Tang Dynasties, they could meet each other at will, so they fell in love at first sight and left a good story through the ages.It's different now, the wives, grandmas and girls are naturally guarded in the boudoir, so they can't be seen easily.Even some decent girls and daughter-in-laws don't see outsiders easily.In this way, it is absolutely impossible to ask for a confidant.
