Mirror Dreams

At the beginning of May, Lin Yun took his two younger sisters back to Fengxiang Mansion after receiving a letter from his family.In addition to Lin Zhenzhi, Mrs. Lin, a few children, and a third wife, Yiyun, the Lin family is the servants of the family.

Lin Zhenzhi is a typical parent. Mrs. Lin is very friendly. The third wife, Yiyun, is a beautiful woman who is nearly 17 years old. At the age of [-], she and the second wife married into the Lin family as concubines. However, the second wife passed away after giving birth to the youngest son, Lin Lei. Although the third wife, Aunt Yun, was favored, she didn't have a child, so she didn't argue about anything and just served Lin Zhenzhi wholeheartedly.

On the day Lin Yun brothers and sisters returned from Suzhou, the whole family happened to be there, except Lin Zhenzhi's eldest son, Lin Feng, and his family.Therefore, the primary topic is Lin Feng's family.

Lin Zhenzhi first said: "Yu'er, your elder brother's mansion is about to be completed, and after you rest for a few days, go to the capital to see the world."

Lin Fangyu said happily: "Okay, I really want to visit the capital."

Lin Yun immediately said: "Father, let's go after a few days of rest, and I will bring my brothers and sisters with me." Lin Yun likes to run around the most.

"You can go if you want, but Yu'er, I don't need you to accompany me." Mrs. Lin said to her son with a smile.

Lin Zhenzhi also said: "Yes, when Ah Qi comes someday, let him take Yu'er to the capital, so you don't have to worry about it."

Lin Yun got angry when he heard that guy, but he didn't dare to attack, he just said: "After all, he is an outsider, and Yu'er is already such a big girl, what if that guy messes around?"

Mrs. Lin smiled and said, "Yun'er, he is not an outsider. Ah Qi grew up with your eldest brother, and has always been in love with our Yu'er. Sooner or later we are a family."

Lin Yun said angrily: "What is he, I don't care about having him as a relative."

Lin Fangyu didn't speak, just ate with her head down, thinking to herself: It seems that the family members agree, what should I do?Can he know my current situation in the south?Maybe...forget it?No, he said he would be accepted by my family within five years, and I believed him.

Lin Yun said again: "Stop wishful thinking, why don't you ask Yu'er?"

Mrs. Lin said with a smile: "You still have to ask? The two of them have been very close since childhood, let alone now. Isn't that right, Yu'er?" Mrs. Lin suddenly turned the topic to her daughter, but Lin Fangyu not only did not answer, but her mind wandered too much. empty.

After a while, Lin Zhenzhi saw that his daughter was worried and a little unhappy, so he said, "Let's eat, let's not talk about it." After that, no one spoke.

After the meal, Mrs. Lin said to Lin Zhenzhi: "Master, I see that Yu'er has done nothing to Ah Qi for so many years. A twisted melon is not sweet."

"What do children know? After consummating the house, you will have all kinds of feelings. Don't worry, besides, Yu'er's illness is the most important thing. After the illness is cured, you can slowly cultivate feelings, and nothing will happen." Lin Zhenzhi continued. How can you not see what's on your daughter's mind?But nothing is more important than her daughter's life.

"I hope! This year, Yu'er's illness seems to be fine. Next year will be the third season. This matter has to be settled early."

"Let them be alone this year, and let them get married at the end of the year. Yan Ling, don't think about it. I think Yu'er is a bit like you when you were young, and you don't like to talk." Lin Zhenzhi comforted his wife, and put his arms around her. she thought.

"Yu'er is different from me. She is a child with her own opinions. It's better to tell her about this first. If Yun'er really gets what she says, we can have a countermeasure."

Lin Zhenzhi held his wife in his arms and said, "Don't worry, it won't happen. The weather is not very good, don't let it rain, why don't you go back?" After speaking, the two returned to the room.

After a few days, Yang Jiaqi really came to see Lin Fangyu in the General's Mansion, and asked her to go to Fengxiang City to play. Since her parents agreed, Yu'er had to go out with him.There are always many people in the market, and Yang Jiaqi is also happy to be able to come out with Yu'er.When he saw a very beautiful phoenix hairpin on the jewelry booth, he pulled her and asked, "Do you like it?"

Lin Fangyu really liked it, but she still said: "It's very beautiful." Then she shook her head.

Seeing Lin Fangyu shaking her head, Yang Jiaqi thought she didn't like Fengchai, so she picked up a green earring and was about to ask, but saw a man holding up the Fengchai and asking the stall owner, "How much is this?"

The stall owner said with a smile: "Three taels of silver." The man took out the money from his pocket to pay the bill and left.

Yang Jiaqi didn't pay attention to these, but he found that Lin Fangyu had been looking at that person's back, thinking to himself: Could it be that Yu'er likes that Fengchai very much?How stupid of me not to see it and watch someone else buy it.He never expected that Lin Fangyu looked at that person with a kind face, but felt that he was a bit like Zhan Zhao, but not like him.

And that person was Uncle Zhan Zhao's eldest son, Zhan Yifei. He came to Fengxiang Mansion this time because of his family's business, so he might not be there.His family runs a brothel, and he came here because something happened in the Yihong Courtyard of Fengxiang Mansion, and he needed to solve it himself.Here he lives in the silk and satin village of Zhan Zhao's family.This day I just had some leisure time, so I came out to play, and saw that Lin Fangyu wanted this phoenix hairpin very much in her eyes, but the man next to her was so ignorant, so she decided to buy it for her confidant.

When Yang Jiaqi saw that he hadn't bought anything for Lin Fangyu, he tried his best to give her a gift, and suddenly remembered that Lin Fangyu preferred pink when he was a child, so why not give her a pink dress, she must like it.After walking half a street, they found Ruixing Silk and Satin Village, which was also a place frequented by the Lin family, so they dragged Lin Fangyu in.

I saw that the boss was chatting with a man in white, and this man was Zhan Yifei who bought Fengchai.Seeing that it was Lin Fangyu, a clerk ran over and said, "Miss Lin, are you here?" He led the two of them to the cloth next to him, and introduced the new fabrics and patterns, but Lin Fangyu kept looking at the girl who was so tall. Much like Zhan Zhao's Zhan Yifei, he is not in the mood to look at the cloth at all.

Yang Jiaqi naturally also saw Lin Fangyu's thoughts, thinking that she still liked the phoenix hairpin better, so he asked the buddy, "Is that young man in white your master?"

The man looked at Zhan Yifei and said, "It's the eldest son of our Fourth Master's family, Young Master Zhan Yifei."

Lin Fangyu asked strangely: "Isn't your shopkeeper surnamed Zhai?"

The clerk said: "Miss Lin doesn't know something. My shopkeeper's surname is Zhai, but the chief shopkeeper's surname is Zhan."

"Oh!" Lin Fangyu looked at Zhan Yifei and didn't speak, thinking to himself: I'm also surnamed Zhan, but...

I saw Yang Jiaqi walked up to Zhan Yifei and saluted, "I am Yang Jiaqi, Mr. Zhan, do you still remember?"

"Yang Jiaqi?" Zhan Yifei looked at him, then at Lin Fangyu, then bowed and said, "I remember, we just met at the jewelry place." Is this still a human memory?faint!

"Young Master Zhan has a good memory." Yang Jiaqi was really impressed. He didn't even look at them, but he still remembered them. It's really not a normal person's memory.In fact, Zhan Yifei has an impression of Lin Fangyu. People in his profession usually have a deep impression of girls. Who made him the head of Yihong Courtyard?

Zhan Yifei smiled and said, "Young Master Yang is too much for the award. May I ask what advice you have?" Zhan Yifei had already realized that he came for Fengchai.

"That's right. My girlfriend is also interested in that Fengchai. I wonder if Mr. Zhan can transfer it to me?" In fact, Yang Jiaqi couldn't say anything about this kind of thing, but seeing that Lin Fangyu was always paying attention, he put down his face and said it.

Zhan Yifei said with a little embarrassment: "It would have been better if it had been earlier, but I have already given away the hairpin. I'm really sorry, Brother Yang."

Just as he was talking, he saw a very beautiful girl walking in front of Zhan Yifei, she was wearing that phoenix hairpin on her head, Yang Jiaqi couldn't say anything more, after all, it was also given to the person he likes, so how could he take it away from others? what about love?

The girl said: "Brother Yifei, let's go back a few days later, okay? I just received a letter from Feige from my elder brother. He and my second brother are coming to Fengxiang. I really want to meet them, okay?"

Zhan Yifei took the girl's hand and said, "Okay, it's rare that the third brother and the fourth brother are all here. Wan'er, what time did they say it will be here?"

That girl is Zhan Yifei's younger sister, Zhan Wan'er, who is 12 years old this year.Since her family was engaged in brothel business, she grew up in Zhan Zhao's parents since she was a child, and naturally called Zhan Zhao the eldest brother, and the second brother she called was Bai Yutang.Zhan Wan'er handed a note to Zhan Yifei and ran away.Zhan Yifei looked at it and said to Yang Jiaqi: "Brother Yang, I'm very sorry, I can't transfer this hairpin to you."

Yang Jiaqi also understood, so he said: "Please forgive my abruptness."

Zhan Yifei said to shopkeeper Zhai: "Uncle Zhai, there is no need to charge for the fabric this girl chooses, it will be credited to my account."

Shopkeeper Zhai smiled and said, "Look at what you said, the fifth young master is from my own family, so why be so polite? Just wait for my young master to come and sign."

Zhan Yifei didn't evade, and said to Yang Jiaqi: "Brother Yang, since this hairpin cannot be transferred to you, I asked you to give this girl a dress as compensation for her love. I hope Brother Yang will not refuse, otherwise It’s you, Brother Yang, who insists on that phoenix hairpin.” Good guy, Yang Jiaqi has no way to shirk it, so he can only accept it happily.

Zhan Yifei then walked up to Lin Fangyu and said, "Girl, let me recommend a pattern for you." After he finished speaking, he went there and picked out a piece of light green cloth embroidered with small flowers and said, "This light green is The main color of this summer is fresh and cool, and will not give people a feeling of restlessness. And the girl's graceful atmosphere with pink embroidery is more dignified and elegant, beautiful and moving. The girl has big eyes, if she wears long hair on her head The long embroidered ribbon, although somewhat similar to the background of the rivers and lakes, does not lose the demeanor of everyone. Don’t choose the same pattern for this belt, just a light pink one, which completely matches the whole body. It is best if the girl has a pink shirt. It must be the most perfect combination." Zhan Yifei is really the best salesman, his eloquence is definitely trained.

Lin Fangyu was really moved by what he said, so she said, "Young Master Zhan, what you said is really nice." Even Yang Jiaqi admired him so much.

Zhan Yifei smiled and said, "It doesn't matter if it sounds good, the most important thing is whether the girl chooses this piece of fabric."

Lin Fangyu nodded and said, "I want this one, thank you."

Zhan Yifei said to the clerk, "Tailor a dress for this girl."

Shopkeeper Zhai came over and said, "Fifth Young Master, Miss Lin is the daughter of General Lin's family. We have a record of size in Ruixing."

Zhan Yifei was surprised at first, and then said with a smile: "So that's the case, no wonder the girl looks different from the ordinary lady, with a hint of heroism in her elegance, so she is the queen! Disrespect and disrespect." Zhan Yifei accidentally pulled I touched Lin Fangyu's hand, but let it go quickly, thinking to myself: This girl's body is not usually weak, if she accidentally hurts her, it will be troublesome, so I said: "Miss Lin, I will introduce you to you later." A style is only suitable for you." Lin Fangyu followed Zhan Yifei to the counter, took the book, turned a page, and introduced that style to her, without paying attention to others.

Yang Jiaqi felt a little jealous, and thought to himself: This Mr. Zhan is simply an expert in the service industry, he really has 360 skills, and he is the number one in his career.Not only is his eloquence so good, but he is also so handsome, there must be many girls who have secretly fallen in love with him.Yu'er can't be in touch for too long, otherwise... it's better to take Yu'er away as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.Little did he know that this Zhan Yifei was in the business of a brothel, so listening to words and demeanor was essential, and eloquence was a compulsory course, not to mention the fact that there were girls who secretly agreed with her.

After a while, Lin Fangyu chose the one introduced by Zhan Yifei, and left with Yang Jiaqi satisfied.

Yang Jiaqi was a little unhappy, so he said, "Yu'er, this Mr. Zhan is really eloquent."

"Yes, he is not only handsome, but also very tasteful." Lin Fangyu praised.

"We won't come here again."

"What are you talking about? Mr. Zhan didn't offend you, so why target him? Besides, Ruixing's cloth is so good, why don't you come here?" Lin Fangyu was angry. This Yang Jiaqi always put on a big brother air and taught himself.

Yang Jiaqi was also speechless, but he hadn't given her a gift yet.

"Shall we go back?" Lin Fangyu walked back after finishing speaking.Yang Jiaqi found that it was almost dusk, so he had to send Lin Fangyu back to the general's mansion, and Lin Fangyu ignored him along the way.

But in Ruixing Silk and Satin Village, Zhan Yifei went back to the backyard angrily after sending them away, and found Zhan Waner in the yard, so he went over and said, "Who let you into my room?"

"He's helping you out, so it's fine if you don't thank me, but you still yell at me?" Zhan Wan'er is not as cute and cute as before.

Zhan Yifei was so pissed off by his younger sister, he said, "I'm giving this to someone else, who asked you to wear it on your head?"

Zhan Wan'er stuck out her tongue at her elder brother, then took off the phoenix hairpin and said, "I don't care about giving it back to you!"

Zhan Yifei saw that his sister was submissive and said, "Give it to you."

Now Zhan Wan'er misunderstood, and said angrily: "I tell you: I, Zhan Wan'er, will not want things that don't belong to me." After speaking, she turned and left, but when she reached the corner of the door, Fell directly into someone's arms.

That person was Zhan Zhao. As soon as he entered the house, he saw Zhan Wan'er rushing towards her, so he hugged her and asked, "Who provoked you again, Miss."

When Zhan Wan'er saw that it was the eldest brother, she beat him wildly in his arms and cursed: "Brother dead, big brother bad, big brother stinky, why didn't you come earlier and let Zhan Yifei bully me, beat you to death, beat you to death ..."

Zhan Zhao smiled and took his younger sister's hand and said, "Okay, okay, can't big brother vent your anger on you? If you really beat big brother to death, no one will avenge you."

After beating wildly for a while, Zhan Wan'er stopped, looked around and asked, "Where's second brother?"

Zhan Zhao looked to the right and said, "I vented my anger on you, let's go and have a look." Then he dragged his sister into the yard.

When they arrived in the courtyard, what they saw was Bai Yutang holding a phoenix hairpin in his hand and said, "Yifei, did you buy this hairpin with your love?"

"Yeah, such a big man doesn't understand girls' minds." Zhan Yifei smiled and said, "I originally wanted to tease them, but after seeing this hairpin, I really fell in love with it. I thought Wan'er would wear it first when I came back, so I don't want it."

Bai Yutang looked at Fengchai and said, "I want it." He thought to himself: Zhan Yifei doesn't want such a beautiful Fengchai. When I return to Suzhou and give it to Jinger, she will definitely like it. Hehe, who wouldn't want something for free? want?

Zhan Zhao also came over and asked, "What kind of hairpin would the three of you want to come and go?" Zhan Zhao took the Feng hairpin from Bai Yutang's hand and looked at it, and said, "It's not pearl and emerald, but it's just a hairpin." An ordinary phoenix hairpin with very fine workmanship is nothing more than two or three taels of silver at most."

Bai Yutang snatched it up and said, "But its shape is very beautiful. When I go back to Suzhou, I will find the old man to make one inlaid with pearls according to this shape. Wouldn't it be worth it?"

Shopkeeper Di did not know when he also came to this yard, and he said after hearing it: "Master Bai, why do you need to go back to Jiangnan for re-building?"

"That's right, since everyone likes it, why don't we copy a few and make one for each of them. I'll make an emerald one." Zhan Yifei said happily.

Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "I want to use jade to make an identical one."

Bai Yutang jokingly said: "Brother, didn't you say that this is an ordinary hairpin? Why are you making a fuss?" Zhan Zhao immediately said: "Yes, but I also said that the workmanship is fine. If so, why not?" ? You don’t need to pay for it.”

……

Shopkeeper Zhai saw that they were about to quarrel again and said, "The most famous jewelry store in Fengxiang Mansion is called Jin Chengyuan. I have a good relationship with Jin Cheng, the shopkeeper. Why don't the young masters go there with Lao Zhai tomorrow to have a look."

Zhan Wan'er also said: "Uncle Di, I'll go too, and get me a gold one." This little girl who likes to join in the fun doesn't forget to take advantage of it.

In the end, there was nothing that Zhai shopkeeper could do, who let them be the young master and young lady of his own family?Shopkeeper Zhai was afraid that they would quarrel again.In the past two days, the fifth young master and Miss Wan'er have been playing around when they are free. The young people nowadays can't calm down at all, which makes shopkeeper Di, an old man, helpless.

On the second day, five people went to Jin Chengyuan. Since Zhan Yifei and Zhan Wan'er had to leave first, the shopkeeper Jin completed the building ahead of schedule.Two days later, Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao went to the store to pick up hairpins.When they walked into the door of Jin Chengyuan's store, they saw Lin Fangyu wearing a light green embroidered pink flower coat, plus a long light green ribbon on her head, standing in front of the counter like a fairy, looking at something.

And the person next to her was Yang Jiaqi, who found Lin Fangyu staring at the jade hairpin in a daze, so he said to the man, "Man, this hairpin..."

The young man said: "I'm sorry, my lord, this phoenix hairpin was made to order by someone else, not for sale. The shopkeeper said it was put here for buyers to see. Look at this hairpin, the workmanship is also very fine..." said Then introduce him to other accessories.

Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao in and said to the clerk, "Xiao Mo, where's our hairpin?" The clerk named Xiao Mo took out the hairpin and packed them up. There were four boxes in total and handed them all to Bai Yutang.Zhan Zhao opened a box and looked at it. This phoenix hairpin is simple and beautiful, and he thought to himself: This Jin Chengyuan is really extraordinary.

But Bai Yutang asked: "Brother, this hairpin is so beautiful, Jing'er and Yu'er will definitely like it."

At this moment, Lin Fangyu looked at them.

Zhan Zhao didn't answer, because he had already seen Lin Fangyu, he recognized Yang Jiaqi at a glance, and thought to himself: It seems that Yu'er's family has already recognized him, what should I do to make the Lin family change their minds?

Yang Jiaqi noticed that Zhan Zhao had been staring at Yu'er beside him. He didn't recognize Zhan Zhao, so he pulled Lin Fangyu to the other side to look at other accessories.

Zhan Zhao was about to move, but Bai Yutang pulled him and said, "Brother, didn't you say you want to take me to see Yujing Lake? How about going to see the sunrise on the morning of the [-]th of this month? I hope to dream of Jing'er, Let's go." Bai Yutang pulled Zhan Zhao away after finishing speaking.

After going out, Zhan Zhao woke up.

Bai Yutang said: "If you stare at other girls like that, it's better not to suspect that you are a pervert. Anyway, are you afraid that you won't see Yu'er when you go to Baojing Lake on the 19th of this month?"

"Baojing Lake is Yujing Lake, only a few of us know, then Yu'er will definitely go, and then I will give her a phoenix hairpin as a gift." Zhan Zhao said with a smile: I never thought of it, but Yutang is smart and quick to respond .

How could Lin Fangyu not understand?Anyway, there are still a few days until the nineteenth, and it will not be too late to leave for Baojing Lake tomorrow.So he planned to ask Lin Yun to take her to the Three Realms Mountain. Anyway, Lin Yun seemed bored at home. Suddenly, he heard that his sister asked him to accompany her to Baojing Lake, so he happily agreed. He was planning to go out, but he was afraid that his parents would not let him Go, it's God's will.

That night, Lin Fangyu went to her mother's house, and when Mrs. Lin saw her daughter coming, she asked, "It's so late, what's the matter?"

Lin Fangyu pulled her mother and said, "Mom, I want to go to the Snow Girl Temple to offer incense, okay?"

"Okay, I'll let Brother Yang accompany you tomorrow."

"My second brother is with me every time. This time I have already found my second brother. I don't want to trouble others."

Mrs. Lin knew that her daughter had no feelings for Yang Jiaqi, so she asked, "Yu'er, tell mother, do you not like Ah Qi?"

Lin Fangyu bowed her head and did not answer.

Mrs. Lin said again: "Mother knows that you don't like feelings, but some things are predestined by the heavens. Your illness has linked you together, and we can't change it."

Lin Fangyu asked back: "If my daughter recovers from her illness, can mother promise her daughter not to marry Brother Yang?"

Mrs. Lin held her daughter in her arms and said: "If your illness can be cured without treatment, your marriage will not be connected with the illness. With your status as the princess, have you found some kind of county horse?"

"If that's the case, can my daughter marry whoever she likes?"

"That's right, Mother doesn't want you to marry a general. It's a blessing to marry an ordinary man." Mrs. Lin sighed and said, "Go to sleep? Go to the Snow Girl Temple early tomorrow."

Lin Fangyu said no more, nodded and went back to the room.
