Daughter of the Red Chamber should be self-improvement
Chapter 44, Yueshi's Disaster
Baochai did not know where to find a calligraphy and painting of a previous generation of masters and a set of emerald butterfly heads as gifts to Daiyu.Daiyu couldn't refuse, so she had to accept it; Xiangyun also sent someone to send a pair of red gold inlaid lapis lazuli head and face and some embroidery; what greeted the spring was a single chess record and a suet white jade bracelet; What I have here is a scroll of the Grand View Garden, a copy of everyone's poems in the past, and a head decorated with red gold and hibiscus stones; Jewelry and the like are much more valuable.Baoyu was still a little dazed, but Xiren sent Baoyu a golden step shaker with a phoenix spreading its wings and a few gadgets.Daiyu looked at it and then put it aside.Xueyan curled her lips and put it away.Naturally, everyone in the garden also had gifts, such as a pair of heads, a hairpin, a few pieces of embroidery, or calligraphy and painting, to name a few.
With this incident, Daiyu organized the first gathering between sisters.The venue is located in the Tongyin Hall in Yingchun.I originally planned to put it in the Jixiang Tea House, but I thought it would be inconvenient for the sisters to eat, drink and play.It was a public place after all, wasn't it?It's better to put it in your own courtyard, let it be more indulgent, and you won't be afraid.
Daiyu, Xichun, and Baochai were the first to arrive; not long after, Xiangyun also arrived in full dress, and the gold yarn and satin brocade was embroidered with peach blossoms from the shoulders, the densest at the beginning, and fell to the corners of the skirt a few flowers.It's like a gust of wind blowing, and a burst of peach blossoms swaying. In the midst of sorrow, some of them are no match for the spring breeze, and then sway down.On the head is a golden step rock inlaid with pink hibiscus stones, on the ears are two earrings inlaid with hibiscus stones, and around the neck is naturally the shining golden unicorn that is usually worn.
Baochai laughed to herself: "Sister Yun's attire reminds me of a poem in the Book of Songs:
Recipe, Shining.The son of Yugui, Yishi IKEA.
Tao Zhiyaoyao, there is a lotus, in fact, the son returns home, suitable for his family.
Tao Zhiyaoyao, its Ye Zhenzhen.When the son returns home, it is suitable for his family.
It seems that sister Yun must be very popular in her husband's family.But, when will my sister love Ye Zhen Zhen? After finishing speaking, he hid behind Yingchun.
Xiangyun gritted his teeth with hatred, stomped his feet and said, "I don't believe that Sister Bao doesn't have this day, I finally waited for your day!" It's completely a gentleman's revenge, and it's not too late for ten years.
"It seems that getting married is not all a bad thing!" Xichun muttered softly.
Xiangyun rubbed Xichun's head and said: "Silly boy, the marriage is due to Yuelao who tied the red line between the two of them a long time ago, so no one can do it." Then he did not forget to tease: "You are still young, you don't have to think about it so early .”
Xichun said: "Why am I so young? My family," Hey, I later found out that something was wrong.It looks like a pit!Then she blushed and said no more.The people present have long burst out laughing.
Yingchun came out to smooth things over: "Sister Lin will return to Yangzhou in a few days, so don't talk about those who don't have it. It's fate for my daughter's family to get married well. If she doesn't marry well, everyone has to help each other. Like me, if there is no Lin Sister, I'm afraid I don't know where I'm wandering at this time." Everyone tried to avoid some topics at first, in order not to stimulate Yingchun.Now that Yingchun is so calm, she can't help but secretly feel that she is too narrow-minded.
"I think the second sister is much more friendly now than in the garden. Our family is considered a bit of a face in the business world of our Great Xia Dynasty, and we often accompany my mother to the shop. When the shopkeepers mention the second sister, they are also stretching Thumbs up. Especially the shareholding system proposed by the second sister is very popular; there is also the story of the second sister who went to the Xiongnu and broke into the Yueshi, which is now compiled into a storybook by those storytellers. Many people have heard it It really increases our women's ambition!" Baochai was the first to speak out in solidarity.
"It's really not as good as traveling thousands of miles to read thousands of books. I thought the world was as big as a garden. All we can do is obey our parents' advice and keep our duty as human beings. There are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond the sky. Not to mention that the women of the Yuezhi country are respected. This world is not that you just obey him and treat you well. Take Tan girl as an example. Marrying in that barbaric place, not only cannot speak, And the customs are different. If it was someone else, I’m afraid they would have cried to death. But last time I saw the third sister, she was very high-spirited. She built a medical clinic, opened a school, and experimented with growing food from the Central Plains. Everyone is full of praise. That respect was earned by the third sister herself, and not given by her status as a married princess." Yingchun talked eloquently.
These words had a profound impact on both Xiangyun and Xichun.This is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
The little sisters chattered for a while.Xiangyun got up first to say goodbye, she was still a bride after all.If it's too much, I'm afraid it won't be so easy to come out next time.Yingchun sent Siqi to watch Xiangyun get into the car before he felt relieved.
The remaining three talked nonsense again and again, and they also left together.Yingchun personally sent the three of them out before giving up.
The next day, Daiyu went to the Prince's Mansion in Beijing to bid farewell.If you make a princess of Beijing both happy and worried, if you are happy with Daiyu and Ji, then it is suitable for marriage; if you are so worried, you will be far away, and it will be difficult to see each other.He took Daiyu's hand and talked for a long time.He kept Daiyu for another lunch before releasing Daiyu back.
Early the next morning, a large cart of gifts arrived.But it was two bolts of lake-blue silk gauze, two bolts of jade-colored Shu brocade, and two bolts of concubine red and fine cloud brocade.A seven-treasure necklace inlaid with red coral the size of a longan, a pair of red coral earrings of the same size and grade, and naturally a string of red coral beads that are slightly smaller.A gold-green cat's-eye ring, and an emerald ring.A set of red gold emerald heads.There are also some weird gadgets.There are small gold silk sandalwood handles, boxwood dolls, pocket watches from the West, music boxes, and some cute and simple clay dolls.A lot of mess.Daiyu knew at a glance that it must be water-soluble, and she couldn't help but feel warm in her heart.He picked out the coral bracelet inside and put it on his wrist first.
The next day, Daiyu got up early and said goodbye to Jiamu.He went to Mrs. Wang's room to salute, then turned around and went to Sister Feng's yard to say goodbye.Then he boarded the car and went to the pier with the people who came to pick him up at home.
The morning mist has not yet dissipated, and the days at the end of September are already very cold.Mrs. Wang naturally sent some servants and maids to see them off.Abandoning the car and boarding the boat, Lin Feng struggled to move Daiyu's luggage onto the boat.Zijuan, Xueyan and Wang Momo accompanied Daiyu to the cabin first.The cabin is small, but clean and tidy.The copper fire charcoal basin was set up early, but it was very warm.Zijuan spread a wool cushion on the chair by the window, and put a pomegranate red brocade pillow on it.Xueyan put the tea utensils used by her daughter on the table one by one.Zijuan said with a smile: "Today, the girl got up early, let's take a rest first. I'm tired of going. I heard from the nanny that the water journey will take seven or eight days!"
Daiyu was about to sit down, but she saw a jet-black horse by the river, and a person on it was dressed in a flamboyant red dress.A head of black hair flutters with the morning wind, which one is it if it's not water soluble?Daiyu opened her mouth, but didn't make a sound.He only picked up the handkerchief in his hand and waved it.
Shui Rong didn't sleep almost all night yesterday, but today he stood by the river and waited early.Step by step, he looked at the little man who was thinking about it and walked onto the boat.But he couldn't go forward and say a word.I deliberately wore such an eye-catching color, just so that the little guy could notice me.Looking at the waving handkerchief and the passenger boat going further and further away, Shui Rong rode his horse along the river for a long time until he couldn't even see the little black spot.
Life on board is very relaxing.Daiyu just reads a book and takes a walk on the deck every day.It was Zijuan's first time on a boat, and she was very excited.I couldn't help but continued Xueyan's questioning, and for no reason received Xueyan's eyes.
The journey went smoothly, but arrived in Yangzhou in seven days.The people who own the Lin Mansion are already waiting on the wharf.Looking at the scenery outside the window, Daiyu only felt kind, and Xueyan and Wang Momo only said that it was okay and came back again.Only Zijuan is inevitably a little lonely.
When father and daughter meet, there is naturally endless talk.Lin Ruhai regretted letting Daiyu go there.Not to mention nothing to gain, but it was a waste of time for the father and daughter to be together.Daiyu is also at ease in every way, whether she is sitting or lying down, she doesn't need to look at anyone's face.On the days when they don't have to go to the government office, the father and daughter cook in person, making three or five small dishes, and they don't need to serve anyone. They eat and chat, which is very satisfying!
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long.When Lin Ruhai came back from the yamen this day, he asked Daiyu to come over.But it turned out that the Xiongnu did not dare to harass them because of their alliance with Daxia; but when it was cold and cold, food became a rarity again.Although Tanchun promotes crops in the Central Plains, it is limited to the south.Some tribes in the north lacked trust in this, and secondly, some places were really not suitable for farming.As soon as the group discussed, they aimed at the Yuezhi Kingdom in the west.In the past few years, relying on the natural dangers of the Yinshan Mountains, the Yuezhi Kingdom has really relaxed its defenses.
The Huns did not know where they found a secret road, but they descended suddenly overnight.Surprised Yuezhi was caught off guard, and approached Yining, the capital of Yuezhi.Fang was blocked.After this battle, the vitality of the Yuezhi Kingdom was seriously injured.Not to mention that the rich and prosperous land in the southeast was almost completely plundered.The Huns were also very cunning, they sneaked into the frontier guard's place somehow, and secretly poured slow poison into the well.There were not many hundreds of thousands of cavalry left.
In addition to urgently ordering [-] soldiers from the capital to rush to the border, the Queen of the Yuezhi Kingdom also hurriedly sent a letter of request to the Emperor Daxia for help.
The relationship between Yueshi and Daxia was before the Xiongnu.Moreover, although the Yue clan was brave and good at fighting, they never invaded the Central Plains.It touches more disputes with the Huns.Since ancient times, the Central Plains has also regarded the Yuezhi as a good neighbor, and even regarded it as a strong support to restrain the Huns.His lips were cold and his teeth were dead, Tuo Bo Zhe immediately ordered Shui Rong to send [-] soldiers to go northwest.Tuo Bojin asks for the supervising army, and he is on the right track.At the same time, the Northwest garrison was secretly ordered to wait and pay close attention. If necessary, they could take the initiative to provoke troubles and deal a head-on blow to the Xiongnu to relieve the Yuezhi's emergency.
All of a sudden, the borders of the three countries were full of flames, merchants avoided each other, and common people fled in all directions.There is a faint gust of wind and thunder.
