The heart of the red mansion is like jade

Daiyu looked up, but saw Ouyang Ziyi walking over, Daiyu smiled and said, "Brother Ziyi is also here to buy something?" Ouyang Ziyi smiled and said, "I have nothing to do today, come and walk, does Yu'er want to buy window grilles? " Daiyu smiled lightly and said, "Let's come out to buy some new year's goods." Someone said to Ouyang Ziyi: "Brother Ziyi, I have moved to the old house of the Lin family. Brother Ziyi is free to play."

Ouyang Ziyi smiled and said: "I will definitely go, I am very bored in the inn by myself, and there are people to talk to when I go to my sister's house." Daiyu thought for a while and said: "Why don't you move to Lin's mansion, now that the year is approaching My brother is going out alone for the new year, and it’s quite lonely." Ouyang Ziyi was overjoyed, he is a very casual person, and hurriedly said: "This is great." Daiyu smiled lightly: "Then brother will follow me today. Shall I go to Lin's Mansion?" Ouyang Ziyi hurriedly agreed, and went shopping with Daiyu.Because Ruyan Ruxue knew about Daiyu's relationship with her lord, she didn't care, especially Ruxue, who admired Ouyang Ziyi very much. Now that she saw the real person, she was naturally very happy, so she surrounded him and asked questions Xi, Ouyang Ziyi didn't expect a little girl to know so many things in the Jianghu, so he told her one by one. The two talked with great interest, and Daiyu, Zijuan, Xueyan and Ruyan followed with smiles.

After walking around for a while, Daiyu felt a little tired. By chance, they arrived at Wangyu Tower, and the four of them went to Wangyu Tower.Helpless, Ouyang Ziyi and Ruxue had a very happy chat, and they had already passed by, Ruyan said with a smile: "Young lady, go and sit in Wangyu Tower first, and I will call them both." Daiyu smiled and said: "Let's walk slowly. Hurry up, let's meet at the gate of Wangyu Tower." Ruyan smiled and agreed, then flew to Ouyang Ziyi and Ruxue, Daiyu, Zijuan and Xueyan walked slowly behind, just now After walking a few steps, she saw a few people coming in front of her blocking Daiyu's way, and said: "Which family is this little beauty, if you go with the master, I will guarantee that you will eat well and drink spicy food."

Xueyan was furious, and just cursed: "Which toad is so short-eyed, so ugly, it's so scary, and it doesn't look for a basin of footwashing water to reflect its own shadow, just because of your appearance, you dare to call yourself a master, How dare you disrespect our lady, what a toad wants to eat swan meat."

Xueyan spoke urgently and quickly, and the people around felt that what Xueyan said was very reasonable. Look at that person, who is fat and short, but wearing a suit of clothes, really looks like a big toad , all the street vendors around know this person, he is the young son of the Zhongyi Palace, he is just 15 years old this year, but he is bullying men and women and committing all kinds of crimes, he is the same as that Xue Pan, the son of the Zhongyi Prince can't do anything, the Zhongyi Palace There are three sons, this is the youngest one, but it was born to Prince Zhongyi's most beloved side concubine, spoiled and spoiled since childhood, and has become the current virtue.Princess Zhongyi is also used to him. Others don't know what Princess Zhongyi means, but she is afraid of the prince's side concubine. In fact, she is thinking that if this little prince is spoiled, the throne of the palace will be given to her son for sure. .Therefore, if this little prince gets into trouble, not only will Princess Zhongyi not speak of him, but she will also help him. This little prince is getting more and more courageous, and now he likes beautiful women even more. The prince took him in as a concubine, and the concubine followed behind to help him take care of them, and gave some money to those people's families. Some people didn't pursue the money when they saw the money, and some people didn't want to but they couldn't help it. The palace has a high position and authority, and they dare not force it.Some people even sent their daughters there.This young man is getting more and more courageous, and now he wants to snatch back a beautiful woman, more and more like a pig's brain.

Today, he took a group of servants and wandered around the street again. He accidentally saw three people, Daiyu, Zijuan and Xueyan, all of whom were as beautiful as flowers. Seeing it made his heart itch, so he greeted his group The dog leg, stepped forward to tease Daiyu, but was robbed by Xueyan, and couldn't help being stunned.

The people around have also had enough of this prince's anger, now seeing Daiyu's extraordinary demeanor, even the two girls are not ordinary, so they hope that this bad prince can learn some lessons, now seeing this prince's appearance, I really felt like a toad, and I couldn't help laughing.

The prince realized that he was about to reach out to hit the snow goose, the snow goose took a step back and said: "Toad's legs are too short." Everyone laughed again, even Daiyu couldn't help laughing.The prince became furious, and said to his gang of dogs: "If you don't go up and catch the three of them, whoever catches them will be rewarded." One person held Daiyu in his arms, while a man and two women came over from the other side and beat the servants to the ground.

The prince was dumbfounded, and said to several people: "You blind people, do you know who I am? I am the prince of the Zhongyi Palace, be careful that I will let my father cut off your heads."

Shui Rong protected Daiyu and said: "So you are the worthless son of Uncle Loyalty's family. You go back and tell Uncle Huang that I, Shui Rong, are waiting for him to chop off my head, but if he dares not come, you will go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice." The prison admits the crime and will no longer commit crimes."

The prince said: "You just wait for the beheading." A servant on the side hurriedly said: "Young master, he is the prince of Beijing." The prince was dumbfounded when he heard that, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Cousin, prince, My brother is wrong, so please forgive me this time." Shui Rong said with a dark face: "You insulted the prince to commit a crime, so you can go back and ask the emperor what crime it is."

The vendors on the side hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't let him go. He is very bad and has robbed many daughters from good families. If you hadn't come, this girl might not have escaped." An old woman said: "He Robbing my old granddaughter, originally my daughter and son-in-law thought it would be good to marry into the palace, but who would have thought that my daughter would die in three days, the prince will decide for us."

Shui Rong said: "In that case, Shuiyun, send these people to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice." Shuiyun hurriedly responded, and someone took these people away, and the common people on the side hurriedly said: "My lord is wise, such a villain, Even a few days in prison is fine." Daiyu smiled and said, "Brother Rong, let's go visit the Yulou." Seeing that Shui Rong was looking at Ruyan Ruxue with an angry face, he hurriedly said softly : "Brother Rong, don't be angry, isn't Yu'er nice? I forgot to introduce, this is Mr. Ouyang, brother Ziyi, this is Prince Beijing Shui Rong."

Shui Rong looked at Daiyu's smiling face, and decided to spare Ruxue this time, and then looked at Ouyang Ziyi, alarm bells ringing in his heart, he really is a very good opponent, and now this opponent is looking at him coldly, looking at him hugging Holding Daiyu's hand, I was a little happy in my heart. Fortunately, the one who came out earlier today protected Daiyu, or Yuer would have been rescued by that Ouyang Ziyi, and he would be at a loss. He hurriedly said to Ouyang Ziyi : "It turns out that the young master is the world-famous young master Ziyi, and I admire him."

Ouyang Ziyi also said: "Xiaomin has seen the prince." Shui Rong said with a smile: "You are Yu'er's elder brother, and you are also Shui Rong's elder brother. If you don't dislike it, how about you call me Brother Ouyang?" Like Shui Rong's casualness, seeing Daiyu's trust and attachment to Shui Rong, she hurriedly said: "My lord, you are welcome." Daiyu smiled and said: "You two stop talking, brother Rong, brother Ziyi, we Let's go to Yulou, Brother Lincheng is also here." After speaking, he still didn't forget to take a look at Zijuan.

Shui Rong knew who Lin Cheng was, but Ouyang Ziyi didn't, but neither of them would refute Daiyu, so he smiled and said, "That's fine, let's go to visit Yulou for a while, Yu'er, you can also rest for a while." Shui Rong He didn't speak, just helped Daiyu to go forward, Ouyang Ziyi and others followed behind, arrived at Wangyu Tower, went directly to Baihua Hall, and saw Lin Cheng waiting inside.

When everyone met Li again, Shui Rong and Ouyang Ziyi saw Lin Cheng for the first time, and after saying a few words, they all felt sympathetic to each other, and the three of them chatted happily. Daiyu only talked with Zijuan Xueyan Ruyan Ruxue sat in front of the window drinking tea while listening to the three of them chatting, eating snacks, and occasionally winking at Zijuan, Xueyan Ruyanruxue, the three of them couldn't help teasing Zijuan, Zijuan Those who blushed like apples gave up.

Several people had lunch together again, Daiyu was worried that Sister Feng and the others were going back to the Lin Mansion, Ouyang Ziyi had asked the boy to scoop up his luggage to the Lin Mansion, so naturally he wanted to go back with Daiyu, and Shui Rong would naturally go to the Lin Mansion too. Because Daiyu asked him to help take care of Ouyang Ziyi, Lin Cheng also wanted to go to Lin's mansion, so they resigned from Lin Zhong and got into the carriage, scooped up the shopping and some snacks for Princess Beijing, and returned Lin Fu.

The person in charge arranged the residences of Ouyang Ziyi and Lin Cheng. Since they were men, they were arranged in the front yard, and Shui Rong accompanied Daiyu back to the Pearl Garden.In the Pearl Garden, Mrs. Xing, Sister Feng and others were sitting in the side hall waiting for Daiyu. Nanny Wang had prepared clothes for everyone to change into, and brought hot tea and rice. They were imprisoned Daiyu went out to see them, and no one else went there. Even if she was released from prison, only Daiyu sent someone to pick them up. None of the historians of the Wang family and the Qing people of Jia's mansion showed up. Now they are in the house. Sitting inside, wearing clean clothes, drinking hot water, several people suddenly felt that this was contentment.

As soon as Daiyu entered the side hall, what she saw was the scene of people sitting around and talking together. Sister Qiao was snuggling up beside Madam Xing, Sister Feng was sitting next to her, and sisters Yingchun Xichun were sitting next to her. Li Wan was pouring water for Jialan. Drink, sister Qiao has sharp eyes, she saw Daiyu all at once, got up from Mrs. Xing's arms and ran towards Daiyu, everyone looked up, only to see Daiyu holding Qiaojie's hand and walking in.

Mrs. Xing, Sister Feng, and Li Wan hurriedly stood up. Now that they are down and out, they are able to stay in Daiyu's house because of Daiyu's kindness. The prison disaster made them understand something.Daiyu hurriedly greeted Mrs. Xing, Sister Feng, and Li Wan. The three dared not do so. Daiyu helped Sister Feng to sit down and said, "Auntie, Sister Feng, Sister-in-law, don't do this."

The three of them sat down as they said, and Yingchun Xichun took Daiyu's hand again and said, "Sister Lin, sister Lin, thank you." Daiyu smiled at the two of them: "We sisters, what can I thank you for? If it wasn't for the two of you, maybe I would have died a long time ago." Xichun smiled and said, "Don't say that." Daiyu smiled and asked, "Sister Feng, sister-in-law, what is your solution?"

Sister Feng smiled and said, "Does Yu'er still remember that Grandma Liu?" Daiyu smiled and said, "Of course I remember." I gave her some money and asked her to buy some land in the village, but he bought it, but the land deed was written in the name of your second elder brother Lian, and he only said that he could go to her place if he needed it someday. The second master took her mother-in-law and sister-in-law Xichun to welcome the spring to Grandma Liu's place. If sister-in-law wants to go, we can go together."

Li Wan said: "Sister Lin, back then my father bought me a small house in the east of the city. I wanted to take Lan'er there, and I could spend my days doing needlework." OK. Let’s go after the new year.”

Sister Feng laughed and said: "I discussed it with my mother-in-law. We thought we would go there today. I haven't seen the second master for a long time. Besides, my body is getting heavier and heavier, and it will be more and more inconvenient." Li Wan also said: "It's better to go earlier, sister Lin, you don't have to worry about us, the Jia family is so sorry for you, and you still take care of us like this already makes us feel very guilty."

Daiyu smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, you have always been very kind to Daiyu, and Daiyu knows it in her heart. Since you are determined to leave, why don't you leave tomorrow. It's getting late today, Qiaojie Lan'er is a child, How can we bear it, and secondly, let's have a good meal, how about it."

Mrs. Xing said with a smile, "That's fine. I'll live far away in the future, and I may not see the eldest girl for a long time." Sister Feng and Li Wan also agreed.Daiyu asked Jia Lian and the others what was going on, and Wang Momo hurriedly replied, "Second Master Lian, Second Master Bao and Brother Rong are all in the front yard. I think there is nothing serious." Daiyu said, "That's good." Then he asked Sister Feng, "What can Baoyu do?"

Sister Feng sighed and said, "Based on what the second wife did, I really don't want to bother with him, but our siblings want to have a good relationship, so let's take him and Rong'er to Zhuangzi together, but I don't know if he wants to go or not." .”

Daiyu smiled and said: "Sister Feng is really a chivalrous woman. Sister Feng, why don't you let the second and fourth sisters live here, we sisters are also companions." But Xichun said: "I want to be with Sister Lin, Second Sister, don't refuse."

Mrs. Xing knew that it was not easy for Sister Feng and Jia Lian to raise such a big family, so she said to Yingchun, "Ying'er, you can stay in Lin's house, and your sisters can be companions." Yingchun had to agree.Sister Feng said to Daiyu: "Sister Lin, there is one more thing I want to trouble you with. When the sale starts in the next year, please help buy Ping'er back."

Daiyu hurriedly agreed, and Ruyan smiled and said: "There is no need to wait until then, and you can buy her now." Daiyu hurriedly asked: "Sister Ruyan, is it really possible?" "Of course I can. I'll go to the prince right now. We're buying it, not robbing it. What are we afraid of?" While talking, he went to look for Shui Rong, who immediately wrote a letter after hearing it, scooped up the silver like smoke, and then went Ping'er was redeemed from the women's prison.

Daiyu asked Mother Wang to arrange a place for them to stay for the night, so she went to the main room to find Princess Beijing. Princess Beijing was talking to Shui Rong, when she saw Daiyu coming, she hurriedly pulled her to sit down Said: "Good Yu'er, are you tired today." Daiyu smiled and said: "Mother, Yu'er is not tired." Then he asked Zijuan to scoop it up and buy it for Princess Beijing, all of which were elegant and elegant jewelry. , and various decorations.Concubine Bei Jing held an ice-blue lotus flower with lotus pod and shook it, she liked it very much, and said with a smile: "Yu'er has really good eyesight, look at this thing, it's really beautiful."

Before Daiyu could answer, Shui Rong whispered at the side: "Yu'er has good eyesight, otherwise she wouldn't have taken a fancy to your son." It only made Concubine Beijing laugh, and after a while Madam Xing and others came over again Grand Concubine Bei Jing, Greetings, Grand Concubine Bei Jing was very moved when she saw that the former Duke's Mansion had become like this, and felt how much they cared for Daiyu in the past, so she said a few words of comfort, and everyone agreed , and another dinner together before each rest.The next day, Sister Feng and Jia Lian took a large family to the village. When they left, Daiyu prepared all kinds of supplies for them and gave Sister Feng a bank note. Family business, you have to buy everything, the money is considered to be lent to you by my sister, and you will have more money on hand that day, so you can return it to me, okay?"

Sister Feng looked at the old Mrs. Xing, the young Qiaojie still had her own belly, and Baoyu Jiarong who knew nothing, so she had to agree, and Ping'er came to kowtow to Daiyu again. He hurriedly helped her up, and told her to take good care of Mrs. Xing and Qiaojie. Ping'er hurriedly agreed, and followed Sister Feng with her arms.Daiyu greeted the spring and cherished the spring until she returned to the yard after watching the few people walk far away.

Xiuju and Chuhua were also redeemed and came back to take care of Yingchun and Xichun. Daiyu arranged the two of them in a courtyard with two entrances behind the Pearl Garden. The two disagreed desperately, they only said that it would be nice to have a place to settle down, and they also said that they would live with Zijuan and the others, but Daiyu could agree, and only arranged them in a small courtyard with two entrances at the back. The two were also happy, so they settled down.Yingchun and Xichun don't want others to wait on them, but they only leave Xiuju Chuhua by their side. They take care of the small yard every day, and they are very happy. Xichun is even obsessed with planting flowers, except for the flowers in her own yard. Beautiful, even the flowers in the Pearl Garden are a little more lively.Xichun also felt happy, and felt that she was finally not just for nothing. Daiyu understood her thoughts and didn't stop her, letting her be happy.

28 After Sister Feng and the others left, Daiyu played chess and talked with Yingchun Xichun, as if she had returned to the days in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Princess Beijing looked at the home of the three girls who looked like flowers and jade, and she was also happy The land is very different, Yingchun and Xichun are two people, one is gentle and the other is an elf, she likes them very much, so she wants to find a suitable husband's family for the two of them. Naturally, Yingchun and Xichun don't know what Concubine Beijing is thinking. The concubine was distracted, and the three of them still thought it was funny.

29 This day, Concubine Beijing had to go back to Prince Beijing's mansion. Prince Beijing's mansion does not need Lin's mansion, and the housekeeper couldn't deal with so many important matters, so she had to invite Princess Concubine Beijing to go back.Daiyu also felt very bored seeing off Concubine Beijing, and suddenly remembered that when she was a child, her father wrote Spring Festival couplets by herself. When I heard that I was going to write Spring Festival couplets, I was very happy, so I found red paper, cut the paper, and polished ink to write Spring Festival couplets. They were very busy. Spring Festival couplets, it was not until evening that all the Spring Festival couplets were posted. Although a few people were very tired, they felt very happy.

In a blink of an eye, it was the New Year's Eve, and the sound of firecrackers early in the morning woke Daiyu from her sleep, and she could no longer fall asleep. Daiyu got up and sat on the bed to embroider a water-soluble fan bag for her.Not long after, Zicuckoo also woke up. Seeing that Daiyu had woken up, she smiled and said, "Young lady woke up early today." Then she helped Daiyu to wash up and walked around the yard with Daiyu.The maid who got up early again saw Daiyu and was busy paying New Year's greetings to Daiyu. Daiyu smiled and said, "I didn't bring any red envelopes, so I'll give them to you later." After breakfast, Daiyu said to Mother Wang "Mommy, this is the first year we celebrate the New Year at home, how about giving a red envelope of two taels of silver to no one?" Nanny Wang smiled and said, "Of course that's fine." Then she went down to prepare red envelopes for everyone, and the maids After receiving the red envelopes, she hurriedly came to greet Daiyu, who stopped everyone and said, "It's Chinese New Year today, everyone should be happy." Everyone agreed, but they still paid New Year's greetings to Daiyu before returning.

Naturally, they ate lunch with Ouyang Zi Yilin City Yingchun Xichun and Zijuan Xueyan Ruyanruxue. Ever since they moved to Lin's mansion, the four of Zijuan have been eating with Daiyu.Ouyang Ziyi was already familiar with Zijuan and the others, especially Ruxue, who was even more familiar, and the two of them still played a few tricks, which made Ouyang Ziyi even more fond of this little girl.Lin Cheng and Zijuan often looked at each other and giggled, which only made the rest of the people laugh at them.

Before dinner was served, they saw Shui Rong bringing Feng Ziying over, several people hurriedly saluted Shui Rong, Shui Rong smiled and said: "You don't need to be too polite." Daiyu hurriedly asked the little girl to add two more chairs, Shui Rong introduced Feng Ziying to the others We know each other, they are similar in age and share a lot of languages, so we became acquainted after a short time.After lunch, Daiyu was called by Shui Rong to whisper, Lin Cheng also talked to Zijuan, and the rest of them were still sitting and chatting.

Here, Shui Rong asked Daiyu, "Yu'er, what do you think of Feng Ziying?" Daiyu asked with a puzzled face, "How do I know how Brother Feng is? Don't you know me well? Ask me what I do?" Shui Rong smiled Said: "Yu'er, let me tell you the truth, Feng Ziying fell in love with the second girl Yingchun, I hope you can help him."

Daiyu was surprised and delighted when she heard the words, and hurriedly asked: "Brother Rong, is what you said true?" Shui Rong smiled and said: "Of course it is true." Daiyu thought about it but was disappointed: "The Feng family is also everyone. , will not allow the second sister to be the main wife, if she is a concubine, she will not be bullied if she has the temperament of the second sister."
