[Red Mansion] Raiders of the heir

Mother Jia's heart and soul were all on the Lin family, and after this conflict with the Xue family, she felt that the Xue family could not be as serious as the Lin family, so she couldn't find Jia Lian, so she sent Wang Xifeng to the Lin mansion.One day when Lin Wei came back from Tu Yan's place, he saw Wang Xifeng lobbying in front of Daiyu, saying that Mother Jia was worried about his young age and wanted to take the Lin family siblings to live in Rongguo Mansion for a long time.

"Wei'er is back? Biyuan will bring some snacks for Wei'er first." Daiyu said: "Grandmother has a heart, thank you for your second sister-in-law, but now there are only me and my younger brother left in the family, how can there be any one?" If you don’t live at home, you should live in someone else’s house? What’s more, Wei’er is studying now, and has some good friends, so the house can’t be locked away. Besides, the big sister’s good life comes soon, but my brother and I They are all people who value filial piety. It's okay to go there once in a while, and it's too rude to live all day. Even if no one in the house talks about it, we feel sorry for it. We also ask Lian's second sister-in-law to go back to her grandmother. If this matter fails, we appreciate grandma's kindness, and now my brother and I are not children, so we can take care of ourselves."

Lin Wei didn't expect that Mother Jia would make such a fuss again, she would make a fuss one after another, making people feel troublesome.If the old lady really cared, why didn't they mention it when they came back from Suzhou?Lin Wei is really tired of this person. She always looks at others as stupid. When she sees something good in her eyes, she moves closer to her. She can always find an excuse that she is doing you a favour.

Before Lin Wei could speak, Lan Die opened the curtain and said, "Girl, the eldest girl is here."

Lotus is now being served by maids, her clothes have been changed, and because she is older than Daiyu, her figure already has a faint charm, her eyes are the most energetic, so she looks out of place It's so beautiful.He Hua came in gracefully with a flower stand in her hand, embroidered with two vivid little fishes, He Hua entered the room, took a look at Wang Xifeng, then walked up to Daiyu, and handed over the flower stand in her hand.

Daiyu admired the needlework of the lotus the most, she couldn't help laughing, and saw her pointing to the small purse on Lin Wei's waist, so she smiled and said: "Sister, do you want to make a purse for Wei'er? Great, I'm going to As for those trivial things in Wuxin, someone will send purses to Wei'er in the future."

After hearing this, Lin Wei leaned over to have a look, and said, "This is interesting, it seems real."

Because the lotus is used to moving less, this is the first time Wang Xifeng saw her after coming here many times, she couldn't help feeling curious, but when she saw that she ignored him, she frowned secretly, anyway, the Lin family siblings were still polite to her Angry, who is this woman?Seeing that Wang Xifeng was only looking at the lotus, Daiyu said, "Don't blame Lian's second sister-in-law. My sister can't speak and rarely sees people, so her temperament is a little cold, but she has no other intentions in her heart."

Wang Xifeng wondered, "Whose family is she from?"

Lin Wei said: "It's my cousin from my hometown." When Lin Wei was in Suzhou, in order to avoid troubles in the future, he found a widow and orphan who had just passed away in the close family, and gave He Hua a new household registration to stand under her door. As a granddaughter, she brought her back to Beijing, and her cousin, who is said to be a distant relative, is doing well.

Wang Xifeng nodded suspiciously, seeing that the two of them had no intention of talking, she stopped asking more questions, but sat and chatted for a while, then left Lin's mansion and went back to Rongguo mansion to answer.

When Jia's mother asked Wang Xifeng to go to the Lin's house, she already thought that the siblings would most likely refuse, so she wasn't too surprised when Wang Xifeng came back to tell her, but she just asked Wang Xifeng to bring Tanchun and others to the Lin's house. Take a seat, and said: "Yu'er is afraid that we will be inconvenient if she comes over, but now she is not happy, it is time to spend more time with her, and it is good for you to sit with her more. You grew up in front of us, and you know her temperament best. It seems that Brother Wei is promising. Right now, their siblings are lonely. If you talk to her more often, she will definitely have concerns in the future. of."

These words coincided with Jia Lian's meaning, Wang Xifeng had just heard Wang Ziteng's words that day, and knew that Lin Wei was the person most favored by Prince Rui, so she understood it in her heart, so she readily agreed.

As for Mother Jia's persevering thoughts, if she hadn't watched the good things come closer, even Lin Wei would definitely think of her good, but she always had a reason for everything, Lin Wei is not really a child Naturally, I couldn't be happy without saying it, the more she was like this, the more I disliked it, but it was just preventing Daiyu from getting close to her, so she never said anything else.

Let's say that Xue Pan's facial injury finally healed up, at least not as bad as he was in the first month of humming every day, but a bean-sized scar on one side of the two faces is really ugly, not to mention going out, it is When old friends came to visit, Xue Pan was not willing to see each other again, so he sat at home every day.

However, Xue Baochai finally had time to move forward, but he had other thoughts about the Lin family and the Jia family, but said that after dinner that day, the girls were all joking in front of Jia's mother, even Shi Xiangyun. I have lived in Jia's house for four or five days.Seeing that Xue Baochai's face was also happy, everyone suggested that it is better to open a poetry club to have fun again, so everyone got excited and discussed how to get started. Shi Xiangyun was even more impatient, and hurriedly said that he would host.

Jia Baoyu looked at the crowd laughing and talking, and thought of Lin Daiyu not seeing each other for a few months, suddenly felt inexplicably lost, and couldn't even join in the interest of the big guys.But everyone was excited, and no one noticed Jia Baoyu's expression, so Shi Xiangyun said: "If I want to be an host, I must invite Sister Lin. If there is no her in the poetry club, it will be boring."

Jia Baoyu looked at Jia Mu and said, "Old Ancestor, Sister Lin hasn't come for quite a while, why don't you ask someone to pick her up?"

Mother Jia was troubled when she heard that, Lin Daiyu was no better than Shi Xiangyun, she would come to pick her up every time she went to pick her up. Ever since she had a bad quarrel with Xue's family, Lin Daiyu didn't like to come here even more, let alone Xue Baochai is here now.

Jia's mother was in a dilemma, but she heard Shi Xiangyun say: "No, I have a very good idea, do you want to listen?"

Tanchun laughed and said, "What bad idea do you have again? Confess it quickly!"

Shi Xiangyun said: "Hmph! I don't agree with you. Second brother, let's follow the example of those people outside and post a message to sister Lin first. It's too late today. How about we visit my sister's house tomorrow? After so many years, I always I've never been to Sister Lin's house before, but I heard that her house also built a small garden, which is the most beautiful, wouldn't it be nice for us to go there and write poems together?"

Even Xichun's eyes lit up when he heard these words, he hurriedly said: "It really is a good idea, I will write a greeting card soon."

A few girls talked cheerfully together, and for a while they really wrote the greeting cards, regardless of the format, they all signed the nicknames they used to use before, Zhenxia old friend, and banana off guest, and urged Jia Baoyu Quickly ask someone to send it.Jia Baoyu was also very happy to see him, and solemnly ordered Mingyan to be sent to the Lin residence.Mother Jia saw that the girls were very affectionate when they mentioned Lin Daiyu, and she was thinking about other things. After all, the affection between these children was different. Although her goal was compromised, she achieved something in the end, so she smiled and let them go. Go make a fuss.

Let's say that Lin Daiyu was embroidering with the lotus, and saw Qingyan come in with a smile and said, "Girl, Rongguo Mansion sent someone to send a greeting card, saying it was for the girl."

Lin Daiyu was startled, took the post and read it, with a smile on her face, and said happily: "It's some girls from my grandmother's family who said they would come to visit tomorrow. These ghost girls must be that Yun My sister made trouble." Lin Daiyu was happy, and after thinking about it, she came up with a better idea, and said, "I just feel bored for a long time, which is good, our garden has just been repaired, and we just invite the girls to enjoy the flowers and have tea. Why don't I write another invitation card, Linger, the younger sister of the elder sister's family, happened to be in Beijing, and invited her together with Princess Yanran, the younger sister of King Beijing Jing, and Yu Rong, the fourth daughter of the Zhao family. If it's good, I won't blame me for being reckless, just invite them to tea."

Seeing that she was really in high spirits, Qingyan hurriedly reminded: "Do you want to invite Princess Ruohan together?"

Daiyu shook her head and said, "That's all, where can I send a post to the palace?"

Zhao Yurong is the daughter of Zhao Yin, Minister of the Household Department, and Princess Na Ruohan is the daughter of Huo Yan, King of Nan'an. Because of Huo Yan's incident in Yunnan, even though he was taken back to Beijing by Tu Yan, she is still old Feeling depressed and restless, he actually went there after two years. The emperor took pity on what happened to Nan'an palace, so he rewarded his eldest son Huo Qing to attack Wang Jue, and took Ruohan by his side to raise him.Because Na Ruohan met Daiyu twice in the Beijing Prince's Mansion, and followed Princess Yanran to the Lin Mansion a few times, the two met each other rather late, and they are also very good friends.But the imperial palace is not where Princess Beijing is, so Daiyu dared not send the post casually.

Qingyan said: "Where is Miss Bao?"

Daiyu looked at the post in her hand and said, "Sister Bao also signed her name here, so I should have invited you here too." Jia Baoyu was so busy sending greetings that she forgot to sign it. Although Yu was surprised why there was no him, she didn't think much about it, maybe something happened if she thought about it, so she let it go, and wrote a post for Qingyan to deliver to Lin Wei.

Lin Wei was doing essays in the study, seeing Qingyan sent the posts, he read them one by one, seeing that Daiyu was in such a good mood, he asked Chang'an and a few others to send them to various places immediately, and he even kissed her. Go to the backyard to find Daiyu and ask her what to prepare so that someone can take care of it first.

Daiyu said: "It's nothing else. You just tell people not to go into the garden at will. We can play in it ourselves."

Lin Wei said: "It's cheap, the sister of Guozidian also asked the kitchen to get up early to prepare, and I ate the new tea from the Qianxiang Kingdom tribute from my husband, the taste is very light, I want to come to sister and girl You should like it, I will go over tomorrow to ask for some, and ask someone to bring it back to my sister."

Daiyu said with a smile, "Why is it so important? I'm just going to ask for it from my husband. I'll eat the Biluochun you just sent me last time."

"It's all for trying something new, sir will not be reluctant." Lin Wei said.

The two discussed some good dishes, and they all said that they could invite the girls to try Huaiyang's delicacy. Both Lin Wei and Daiyu's tastes were relatively light, and the cook of Lin's family brought them from Yangzhou, which was special.On the second day, Lin Wei arrived at Tuyan's mansion early in the morning, and sure enough, he begged for some tea and sent them back, so there was no need to talk about these gossips.

Let's say that Daiyu got up early this morning, Biyuan and Landie had already gone to the kitchen to gather together, while Qingyan brought a few maids to prepare pens, inks, papers and inkstones, and asked someone to place them in the garden. Prepare it as soon as possible, and the girls in front of Lin Wei also brought their own people to help Zhang Luo.

Suddenly someone came to report that Miss Zhao had arrived, and Daiyu picked it up in person.After the sedan chair entered the second gate, the woman carrying the sedan chair helped Zhao Yurong out, and Daiyu hurriedly greeted her.But Zhao Yurong was wearing a simple and elegant biluo skirt, her movements were as graceful as flowing clouds and flowing water, and her head was nothing more than a white jade bracelet dotted with dots of star beads, which was the most refreshing, because there was no complicated dress and headgear in the past In contrast, it looks a little more graceful and graceful.

Yu Rong smiled and said, "It's rare to have your invitation, but I came too early?"

"It's just right, my brother just brought back good tea, and Bi Yuan is going to make it soon." Daiyu went to the east chamber hand in hand with Yu Rong, and said, "Several sisters from my grandmother's family are clamoring to start a poetry club. Thinking that you must like it, I invited you here, and let's have a good day today."

Zhao Yurong said: "It's really interesting."

Not long after, the three Yingchun sisters, Shi Xiangyun, and Xue Baochai from the Rongguo Mansion also arrived. Daiyu was about to pick her up when she saw Qingyan enter the room again. Daiyu saw that her expression was not right, so she went outside and asked: "What?"

"Miss, Second Master Bao is here too." Qingyan whispered.

But Daiyu didn't expect it to be like this. There was no him in the invitation card and there was no him in the invitation card, but she followed. This time, Daiyu was in a dilemma, and said: "First, please invite second cousin Bao to Wei'er's study. Sit here, you go and entertain first."

But he said that Jia Baoyu was stopped, and he watched Tanchun and others enter the second gate eagerly, but Qingyan in front of him insisted on taking him to the study, so he said displeasedly: "It's not easy for me to get here. Come here once, what do you only stop me from doing? Go back to my sister quickly, and be punished carefully for delaying important matters."

Qingyan said: "Young lady's guests are all young ladies from different families. Why do Second Master Bao make it difficult for your slaves to come? If you look for the uncle, you may have to wait for a whole day. When the uncle comes back from school, you will always have to have dinner What time is it?"

Baoyu said: "Where did you come to find your uncle? My sister sent me an invitation. You are still playing here. Take me to find my sister."

"Second Master Bao, my girl has invited ladies from several families today. No matter how foolish the servants are, they dare not act in front of Second Master Bao. But just think about it, the girl will never be able to invite you seriously. It's on your head." This Qingyan is the most quick-spoken, and said immediately.

Just as Jia Baoyu was wondering, he heard someone at the gate saying: "The young ladies of Prince Jing's Mansion are here."

Qingyan said quickly: "Second Master Bao, follow me in, it's not good to stand outside here, don't run into some ladies."

At this time, Baoyu believed in Fang Lue, but whether he believed it or not, he heard that there was indeed a lady from another family, so he had to follow Qingyan into the study and asked, "Why are there people from the Beijing Palace? Didn't we make an appointment?" Playing with us? I haven't seen my sister for several months, what's going on today?"

Qingyan said: "I'll just say it, but Second Master Bao just doesn't believe it. Even if you're joking, you can't open it like that. My girl is now a family. How can she still be the same as when she was a child? Although Second Master Bao is a relative, But after all, it belongs to my natal family. You just say those nonsense nonsense, but you also think about my girl? Since the second master Bao is here, it’s nothing else, please don’t say those nonsense again , don’t make people laugh, girl, it’s not good for Shengyi. If you say you’re looking for my uncle, then sit down and have a sip of tea first. If you come to see off your girls, there are still guests there If you want to entertain, please do it yourself."

Jia Baoyu watched three or four sedan chairs being carried into the second gate of the Beijing Prince's Mansion, so he didn't dare to force his way in, so he sighed wearily: "Forget it, I just sent the third sister and the others over here." , you go to work on your own, I'll be right back."

Just as Jia Baoyu stood up, he saw Lin Wei's girl, Xizhao, walking in with a plain brocade box, and said, "Miss just heard that Second Master Bao came to send Miss San and the others off, so she asked me to pick out some crispy soft bread from the kitchen. These are the dim sums that the girl specially ordered to prepare in the kitchen early in the morning. When the second master Bao left for a while, he brought them to the old lady in the house to taste. This dim sum is our Yangzhou taste, light and not too bad Sweet, the most refreshing, and a little bit of my girl's heart." Then let out the little girl who was following her, told her to put the delicate snacks on the table, and said, "These are for the second master Bao, you Try it too, and if you like it, take some back with you."

Seeing Xizhao approaching, Qingyan withdrew to go to work on her own.

Jia Baoyu heard that it was specially ordered by Daiyu to prepare it, so he rested his thoughts of leaving immediately, sat back and picked one up to taste carefully, and said happily: "It still has a faint almond flavor, it is indeed light and refreshing, this taste Qingwen must like it. Sister, don't bother, I'll just take these back home."

"Second Master Bao, you're welcome. It's rare for you to come here once. You just sit down for a while, and it will be delivered soon. Miss Yuan still thought that the taste of this dim sum is bland, and the second master doesn't like it." Xi Zhao turned to the person beside her. The little girl said, "Go and pack some more, and get some more of this flavor that Second Master likes."

"Yes." The little girl went in response.

Jia Baoyu smiled and said, "Thank you, sister, what else did sister Lin say?"

Xizhao paused, glanced at Jia Baoyu, raised his voice slightly, and said, "What's the meaning of Second Master Bao's words? What else can the girl say?!"

Jia Baoyu had seen Xizhao's verbal skills before, and when she heard her change her tone, she hurriedly stopped, and when the girl brought some snacks, she hurriedly got up to say goodbye, and Xizhao sent him out.
