[Red Chamber] Daiyu Reborn

Lin Ruhai is an official. After settling down in the capital and taking care of the most basic necessities of life, he has to make routine visits. Of course, the order is from close to close.

As the eldest daughter of the Lin family who has just passed the filial piety period, Daiyu naturally wants to start her own "celebrity society".

It stands to reason that Daiyu should have gone to see Lin Rui's wife, Princess Roulan first, but Lin Rui is still out to supervise the army at this time, and Princess Roulan has always been weak-tempered, and when her husband is away, she always closes the door to thank guests.Therefore, Daiyu still followed Lin Ruhai and went to Jia's mansion first to meet her grandmother Shi Taijun.

Lin Ruhai paid homage to his mother-in-law, Lin Daiyu paid homage to his grandmother, uncles and aunts, etc. Lin Jifeng had nothing to do with it, but he had the cheek to be a follower, euphemistically calling them "all of them are relatives of the family, at least they recognize the family".

What kind of "relative" is this?

However, for this "relative", the mother-in-law's family should be more eager to climb up than myself. In the letters from the two uncles, they expressly hinted that Lin Ruhai helped them make friends with Lin Rui more and more times... Lin Ruhai couldn't laugh or cry, but could only Shaking his head, he went with him.

King Xue of Jiashi is one of the four great families in Jinling, and their ancestors were once brilliant, but in this generation, they are considered to be relatively declining in the capital where the rich and powerful gather.In terms of the two branches of the Jia family, the eldest son, Jia Zhen, is a third-rank General Wei Lie, the elder Jia She is also a third-rank noble, and Jia Zheng is just a member of the fifth-rank Ministry of Industry.To put it simply, this family is now more powerful than the holy family, and more face than lizi.

However, it was precisely because of the decline of the family that they were lucky enough not to be involved in the thrilling and ridiculous battle for the throne seven years ago--as the saying goes, it is a blessing in disguise.

The blessings of those years have passed, and the after-effects of the present have also emerged. The reason why they were not involved in the seizure of the heirloom was because their family did not have much use value. Not much silver left.

Daiyu is a female family member, and she was taken in by the beautiful sedan chair first——Sitting in the sedan chair, Daiyu was a little puzzled, and even more sad: this time, she didn't go through the small corner gate, but was carried all the way in from the main gate... After having an uncle and an extra brother, is it really different?

And Jia Zheng and Jia Amnesty came together with Jia Zhen, who came after hearing the news, and personally welcomed Lin Ruhai, a second-rank Beijing official and deputy prime minister of Zhongshu Province. The first two smiled and greeted Lin Ruhai, as if they were afraid of death. After the younger sister, the sister-in-law will have a separation with them; Jia Zhen and Lin Jifeng are of the same generation, but they are much older, so they call themselves "old brother" and pull Lin Jifeng to talk on their own.

Lin Jifeng smiled at each other. He also had the reputation of being a dandy in the capital. In his own words, this was not all a pretense—so, to a certain extent, he and Jia Zhen still had a "common language". Entering the main hall, and then passing through the back hall, the two people who "have met each other late" have chatted from the concubine who was a famous prostitute in a brothel newly accepted by a certain adult in the court to the singer who was a singer in Yunxuan Opera Troupe in the capital. The famous character of the lady, Miss Qiangling.

"A few days ago, Miss Qiangling was in the Liyuan where the water was flooding Jinshan. Tsk tsk, it is said that she was heroic and sad and tactful, which made people cry. Unfortunately, I was still in Yangzhou at that time, so I missed it!"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, after a while, there will be a banquet at the Beijing Palace. It is said that three months earlier, I personally sent a post to invite Miss Qiangling to sing. It was Yang Guifei who sang. At that time, she will definitely be able to dance to the city with a neon dress!"

"Really? Then I must go and see it, otherwise, I will regret it for the rest of my life!"

Jia Zheng, who was walking in front, frowned when he heard the unscrupulous and insolent smile behind him, and then looked at Lin Ruhai's wry smile that hesitated to speak, and finally he could only sigh quietly: I just heard that this person is unruly, perverse, and unruly. Shun, I didn't expect that meeting would be better than being famous... A hero like Lin Rui has such an incomprehensible nephew.

Jia Amnesty didn't have any ideas, in fact he was quite fortunate: everyone in the court knew that Lin Rui was so self-disciplined that he didn't get into it, but he had such a nephew who was proficient in everything.

Unknowingly, several people have arrived outside Jia Mu's courtyard, no matter how "see each other late", the rules still have to be followed, Lin Ruhai and Lin Jifeng rectified their appearances, restored their respectful expressions, and went in to give the first-rank order Greetings from Mrs. Stein.

Because of having a foreigner, Yingchun Tanchun Xichun is not here, no matter how rambunctious Wang Xifeng is, this will not happen on this occasion.So now, on the embroidered pier that Jiamu started, there is only red-eyed sitting, and it is Daiyu who has cried.

When Jia She and others came in, everyone should get up, sit down, and say hello to each other according to their seniority. Lin Jifeng quietly glanced at Xiao Daiyu who had red rabbit eyes, and frowned indistinctly— —Looking at this, the old lady must have mentioned Jia Min. Didn't this make Daiyu cry?Even if you don't see Daiyu's frailty, you should have heard that she just recovered from a serious illness and couldn't bear it.

Lin Jifeng had forgotten that his greatest joy along the way was teasing Xiao Daiyu and watching her change her face.

While thinking about it, Lin Jifeng presented his gift to Mother Jia with a smile: "These are just some common medicinal materials. The old lady is well-informed, so don't dislike her."

Yuanyang took the box from Mammy's hand, handed it to Mother Jia, opened it slightly, and Mother Jia glanced at it: three round bodies with long beards, tied with red thread, high-quality wild ginseng.

"Brother Ji is so polite, such a big ginseng really opened my eyes!" Mother Jia signaled Yuanyang to open the box generously, showing it to the men present, and then smiled at Lin Ruhai, "Oh, Good son-in-law, today my old lady has taken advantage of you!"

"Where, what are you talking about, mother!" Lin Ruhai immediately apologized, "The old lady is in good health, so naturally she doesn't need this thing, and the son-in-law is still looking forward to getting a reward someday during the holidays, so that he can be blessed by the old lady!"

"That's it, ouch..." Mother Jia shook her head with a smile, and waved her hand to signal Yuanyang to put down the box of ginseng, and offered her own gift in return, "Brother Ji is so generous, it makes my old lady feel embarrassed. I There's nothing to sell, so I'll give this little fan to Brother Ji to play with."

Lin Jifeng got up, saluted first, and then took the "return gift" from Jia Mu from the maid: a folding fan from the Tang Dynasty, opened it to see the layers of mountains and rivers, and Lin Jifeng smiled in his heart: also It is a rare treasure.

Lin Jifeng also prepared a gift for Jia Amnesty and Jia Zheng. Of course, all the elders had to return the gift, and they had to return two copies—isn't Daiyu still there?

Sitting upright on the embroidered pier at one side, Daiyu listened to the hidden sharp conversations of men coming and going, pursing her lips silently, without saying a word.

Finally, after chatting, laughing and exchanging pleasantries, Mother Jia smiled and sent a group of men to "go to the front to busy with your important affairs", she held Daiyu's hand and rubbed Daiyu's little white hair with the other hand. The face seemed to be full of emotions: "Let my granddaughter accompany me for a while, it's weird, it's been so long since we met!"

Lin Jifeng's eyes turned unconsciously: this old lady is a difficult one, the joke she said to herself and Uncle Ruhai just now was to test the alliance relationship between their uncles and nephews; now holding Daiyu to say these words, In addition, when they were away, she would definitely talk about her daughter Jia Min... Was she complaining about Lin Ruhai for not sending her granddaughter over earlier, or did she simply want to keep Daiyu in Jia's house?

In terms of scheming, she is slightly better than the men in this family, but her vision is narrower - the current Jia family does not have the capital to have an equal dialogue with the Lin family to discuss an alliance.

Daiyu was held in her arms by her grandmother who loved her all the time in her previous life, but finally abandoned her for Baochai. The bitterness in her heart slowly overflowed, and the circles of her eyes couldn't help but become redder - of course, in Lin Jifeng's eyes, this appearance, It was clear that Daiyu herself was unwilling to stay, and suffered a lot of grievances.

Therefore, Lin Jifeng pulled Lin Ruhai and deliberately laughed loudly: "Hey, uncle, I heard that there is a young man in Rongguo Mansion who was born in Hanyu. Didn't you see it?"

Hearing this, Jia Zheng looked distressed, but Jia Mu looked happy, and quickly called Yuanyang: "Hey, look at my memory! Hurry up and call Baoyu. His uncle came from afar, but he didn't come to see him. What is it called?" thing!"

Yuanyang responded, stepped back quickly, and went to call someone in person—the old lady specially asked her to go in person, didn't she just remind Second Master Bao repeatedly, don't go crazy in front of the distinguished guests?

Jia Zheng was even more impatient. He knew best what kind of virtue his son was. Although Lin Jifeng also had the name of a devil in the world, but he was in the business world and even in the officialdom, and his son was in the rouge market!

And Daiyu, when she heard the word "Baoyu", her body couldn't help trembling, and a burst of deep grief suddenly surged in her heart. Not only was she sad that her infatuation was no match for the wind knife and frost sword, but she also remembered the last time she saw with her own eyes. Yes, the Jia mansion collapsed, and the whole family was left with only a good daughter, Tanchun, who carried the grief and hope of getting married; her grandmother died, and sister Feng died of exhaustion, only a broken mat was wrapped in the snow all over the sky. Baochai from Liujia hides her face and weeps under the cold lamp, while Baoyu in a red cloak drifts away with a mad monk in the snowy sky...

Sad fate, who can change it?I have a wandering soul, and Baoyu obviously does not have this responsibility...

Daiyu is still wandering in the sky, and Baoyu, who is only 12 years old, has already come in with the mandarin duck - it seems that the mandarin duck's exhortation just now has an effect, or it is because Jia Zheng dared not make mistakes here, and Baoyu paid a respectful visit Uncle Lin Ruhai.

Lin Ruhai couldn't help taking a closer look at this handsome, lovable, innocent yet clever boy. He and Min'er once thought about letting Daiyu marry him.

Baoyu didn't know Lin Ruhai's thoughts, after saluting to Lin Ruhai, when he walked over to greet Lin Jifeng as a peer, he was suddenly stunned: the person in front of him was handsome and handsome, and there was an unconcealable sense of coquettishness in his gestures and gestures. Absolutely without the stereotyped mediocrity of a scholar-bureaucrat—Baoyu suddenly had a good impression of Lin Jifeng, and couldn't help but take a step closer, and asked with a smile, "May I ask what your brother's name is?"

Lin Jifeng's experience in the makeup and powder pile is definitely richer than Jia Baoyu's. Looking at the obviously flattering eyes, he didn't feel the slightest discomfort. He waved his fan, raised his eyebrows and eyes, and said in a lazy voice: "My name is Lin Jifeng, little Its name is Lin Sanqi."

Seeing him so close, Baoyu's eyes lit up, and just about to say something, Lin Jifeng suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled him in front of Daiyu, pointing to Daiyu and introducing him: "This is Daiyu, your cousin."

Because Daiyu was dragged by Jia Mu, and Lin Jifeng happened to cover her behind, Baoyu couldn't see this younger sister who was supposed to be "love at first sight" at first sight.

Daiyu already possessed such an extremely soft and coquettish demeanor. At this moment, she was full of emotions, and her affectionate eyes were filled with resentment and anger. Holding Daiyu's hand: "This younger sister, it seems... I have seen it somewhere!"

Daiyu heard this sentence that was no different from her previous life, and her heart throbbed for a while. Just as she was about to say something, Baoyu's excited and handsome face suddenly seemed to be in a trance. Baochai, who was a widow, seemed to hear the low sobbing in her ears... Paoyu felt a sharp pain in the hand held by Baoyu, and Daiyu hurriedly avoided it, subconsciously avoiding it.

"Sister..." Daiyu's reaction frightened Baoyu into a fool, and also made Jia's mother, Jia Zheng, and the others froze. A sneer.

"Baoyu, what do you look like? My sister came from afar, so don't scare her!" Mother Jia scolded, then turned to look at Lin Ruhai, and said with a smile, "Baoyu is still young and a bit naughty, son-in-law, please don't take offense."

As a junior, Lin Ruhai could only smile and shake his head; but Lin Jifeng snorted secretly: 12 years old?Young Master, when I was 12 years old, not to mention how many shops I ran to, I had already seen the battlefield with my uncle!

Jia Mu's rounding the field obviously had an effect, the stiff atmosphere of the scene gradually disappeared, and everyone gathered around to admire Baoyu's psychic jade, but——suddenly, Baoyu leaned closer to take a closer look at Daiyu's medicinal jade, his eyes turned, inexplicably affectionate, The next sentence blurted out without even thinking about it: "So my sister also has jade? Just in time, let's make a couple, and you will never be alone anywhere!"

Everyone gathered together to watch the psychic treasure jade, and Baoyu inevitably asked Daiyu if she also had jade. Thinking of her own "no" in her previous life, Baoyu almost broke her lifeblood, so Daiyu quickly took out the medicine jade that Lin Jifeng gave her , indicating that he also has it-but who would have thought that Baoyu would come up with such a "nonsense" out of thin air!

Hearing this, Daiyu trembled again, Lin Ruhai and Jia Mu's expressions changed drastically, Jia Zheng was so angry that his whole body trembled, and he yelled, "You bastard, what nonsense are you talking about!"

Only then did Baoyu remember that Jia Zheng was also here, and she was frightened like a frightened quail. She grabbed Jia Mu's arm and hid behind the old lady. Jia Zheng: "What are you doing so loudly? My good brother scared you into such a state!"

"Mother..." Jia Zheng was embarrassed and embarrassed, angry and at a loss - Lin Jifeng leaned behind Lin Ruhai and whispered: "Look at this, this is not the first time."

Lin Ruhai looked at Baoyu with increasingly disappointed eyes: pampered, foolish, lustful, irresponsible...

But Jia Amnesty and Jia Zhen, who didn't know whether they were wise to protect themselves or didn't want to get burned, all lowered their eyes respectfully, and none of them got involved in the confrontation between the grandparents and grandchildren.

The more Jia Zheng thought about it, the more angry he became. If he hadn't been concerned about Lin Ruhai, he might have given Baoyu a meal on the spot; He kept frowning... After Jia Min passed away, Lin Ruhai entered Jia's residence for the first time, and it was also the first time Daiyu entered Jia's residence in her life, and it ended in this awkward atmosphere.

It can be seen that Jia's mother really wants to match Baoyu and Daiyu, and it can also be seen that after this trip, Lin Ruhai is completely disappointed in Baoyu's temperament. I don't know the so-called dude, from now on, poverty will be minor, but crime will be major!

Daiyu was silent all the time, Lin Ruhai thought she was frightened by Baoyu, and comforted her carefully; but Lin Jifeng found that his sister with seven apertures and exquisite heart seemed to have something on her mind.

The gilded incense burner tactfully emits a faint purple smoke, which rises gracefully and gracefully.Daiyu lay silently on her embroidered bed, thinking of Baoyu's sentence today, "It just so happens that we make a couple, and you will never be alone anywhere in the sky and the earth."

Crystal tears gradually wet the pillow, and Daiyu couldn't help weeping in a low voice—why didn't she think that "I'm not alone anywhere"?But she doesn't want to experience the tragedy of stealing dragons and turning phoenixes again, doesn't want to be arbitrarily bullied as a pawn or even an abandoned child, doesn't want to see sister Feng with a pale face in the ice and snow, Xiangyun who is married far away, and Baochai who is widowed And Baoyu who became a monk...

If the love she yearns for can only end like this, she would rather not...
