Who is the golden hairpin of Dream of Red Mansions buried for?

In the next ten days, as before, sometimes I would play with Sanchun, Daiyu, Baoyu, etc. during the day, but I would teach Daiyu foreign languages ​​at noon every day; I would occasionally visit Ziweiju in the evening, and strengthen the management of the store by the way Sometimes, Xue Pan brought back some account books for me to look at, but he didn't ask me why I appointed Chen Rong as the shopkeeper again. It seems that he really doesn't care about the business of the store; read a book.It's such a fulfilling day!It's just that I'm going to enter the palace tomorrow, although I already know the result, but I don't know the process, so I'm still a little nervous.

"Sister, did I read those words correctly just now?" Daiyu's voice successfully awakened me, who was wandering in space, and she asked with concern, "Sister, what's the matter with you? Today you are always absent-minded!"

"Oh, no, no!" I avoided her scrutinizing eyes and answered lightly, "You read very well just now!" Daiyu is simply a genius at learning, and I only teach one chapter of each word. , she can read, after teaching her the phonetic symbols, basically I don't need to teach her!Write the word down so she can try to spell it herself.

"No! I clearly mispronounced it just now, but you didn't catch it!" Daiyu pointed to a word and said, "My sister obviously has something on her mind! What is it that distracts my sister? Tell me and let my sister help you." Let go of your worries."

"Oh, this one!" I looked at her, wondering if I should tell her that I was going to be drafted in the palace. It must be that Mrs. Xue did not publicly announce my entry into the palace for draft in Rongfu, although, Mrs. Wang and Sister Feng already knew about it.

Daiyu saw that I was hesitating, so she took my hand and looked at me sincerely: "My good sister, didn't you say that we are friends? Didn't you say that you treat friends with heart and you can trust them?" Is it? Could it be that my sister is just joking and doesn't treat me as a friend, so she won't tell me about her troubles?"

"No, I really consider you a friend! Otherwise, I wouldn't let you know my secret!" I immediately interrupted her, "But it's not a big deal, and it's okay to say it Use it! It just adds to your troubles!"

"If my sister really thinks that my sister is a friend, she will not stop talking! What is a friend? A bosom friend in the mountains and rivers, a person who gives charcoal in the snow, someone who can tell the truth, a bosom friend who can share troubles together! Not the kind of wine and meat. Prosperity cannot be shared with suffering!" Daiyu stared at me blankly, and in her eyes, I saw sincerity and genuine concern for me. "It's because my sister has troubles, and I have to say it out, and I can't keep it in my heart. It's really uncomfortable! This is what I have always known deeply!"

"Daiyu! I'm very happy to hear what you said!" I couldn't help stretching out my hands, hugged her, and then let go, "You know, hearing you say that, all the troubles in my heart are not counted What's the matter. I can only say that I will leave Rongfu for a while, but don't worry, I will be back soon!"

"Sister, are you leaving Rongfu? Where are you going? Why are you leaving?" Daiyu frowned, "Why didn't I hear Aunt Xue mention it, not even my wife? When did this happen? When will you leave and when will you come back?"

Seeing the concern on Daiyu's face, I couldn't hide anything anymore, so I had to answer something important: "This matter, the whole Rongfu, I think only my wife and Sister Feng know! I will enter the palace tomorrow to participate in this year's draft." .”

"Sister is going to the draft?" Daiyu looked disbelieving, as if this kind of thing was very strange to her.

"Don't be so surprised. This is stipulated by the law. The daughters of famous officials and famous families between the ages of 13 and 17 must participate in the selection of beautiful girls every three years. Those selected beautiful girls who win the title of emperor will die You are not allowed to go out of the palace and marry another." I explained to her in a very calm voice, "I am already 13 years old this year, so my mother signed up for me this time, hoping that I can be selected as a show girl, just like Sister Yuanchun , One day, if you can get the favor of the emperor, turn the sparrow into a phoenix, and make a concubine or concubine, then it will be considered perfect, the joy will be unparalleled, and the emperor will be honored."

"Sister is not willing to run?" Daiyu sat next to me and asked, "Does Aunt Xue know what you think?"

oh?Is my performance so obvious, how can she know it just by looking at it! "Yes, I don't want to go! It's said that once I enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea. I'm not stupid enough to jump into the sea! Besides, look at those poems about palace grievances from ancient times to the present, what kind of life did the palace ladies live in them?" It is conceivable!" I smiled helplessly, "Even if she knows, she will still send me there. Maybe you don't know, our mother and daughter are really better than mother and daughter. !"

"'Liaoluo ancient palace, the palace flowers are lonely and red. The white-headed palace maid is here, sitting and talking about Xuanzong.' Sister, I understand your mood!" Daiyu held my hand, her eyes were helpless, "But so what? It's not just you, but I, sister Yingchun, sister Tanchun, and sister Xichun will also take this path and run for election."

"No! You don't need to use it!" Seeing that Daiyu seemed puzzled, I continued, "You may still know something, there is nothing in the world that can't be done with money! As long as you go to the household department to donate your name , you don’t need to participate in the draft! Besides, the old lady loves you so much, she will definitely not let you participate in the competition!”

"Heh, who can say for sure what will happen in the future!" Daiyu sighed, her expression sank, "If you love me now, it doesn't mean you will love me in the future! Besides, I'm not the granddaughter here, and even my own granddaughter will be sent away. Going to that kind of place, let alone me as an outsider? My sister is also a good example! I really hope that Daddy can pick me up soon, at that time, Daddy will naturally know how to arrange these for me!"

"Daiyu, stop thinking about it. If you think too much, it will be bad for your health! The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge, and the car will have its own way to the front of the mountain! Even if they want to send you to the draft in the future, I can help you! "Looking at her expression, I really feel distressed, especially when I know that his father will die soon, I feel even more sad.

"Sister, don't comfort me anymore. If you really have a way, would you still be frowning here?" Daiyu said with a wry smile.

"Of course there is a way!" I smiled, "As long as you use your hands and feet during the selection process, isn't that all right?"

"I don't think it's that simple!" Daiyu expressed disbelief, "With my sister's looks and talent, how could she not be chosen? But if she is really chosen, then it's up to you, and you will spend your whole life like that in the palace. !"

"Ha! Sister, you should believe me!" She still didn't believe me, but I couldn't say that I had already made arrangements and I would lose the election, so I had no choice but to do so, "Then let's make a bet, if I lose the election and come back , you have to promise me two things! Don't worry, those two things will never violate social norms, will not harm the sky, will not harm others or yourself!"

"Okay!" Daiyu rolled her eyes, "Anyway, if you win or lose this bet, there shouldn't be too much loss. On the contrary, it's my sister. If you lose, it will be a lifetime!"

"sure!"

"Okay! Let's give it a high five!" Daiyu raised her palms and said with a smile, "Now, I'm really looking forward to what you will ask me to do?!"

"Crack!" We looked at each other and smiled. The afternoon sun was really bright, but it was a bit desolate.

In the evening, Mrs. Xue came to my room and chatted for a long time, nothing more than talking about what to pay attention to after entering the palace, and how to behave well.After finally coaxing her to leave, my ears were finally quiet!

"Girl, you should go to bed early today!" Ying'er and Ling'er are so well-behaved, they advised me to go to bed early. In the past, when I asked them to go back to rest, both of them were reluctant to leave, and kept clamoring for another stay. card.

"Well! That's right, after I leave, you must take good care of the shop! If there is anything, you can deal with it. You don't have to wait for me to come back. If you can't deal with it, just put it away and wait for me to come back Let’s talk later!” Now it’s time for me to tell them!But I always feel that I forgot to tell them something, but I can't remember it.

"Got it! You've said it several times! We can hear cocoons in our ears!" The two said in unison.At the same time Linger asked curiously, "Girl, are you sure you will come back?"

"What are you talking about! If the girl doesn't come back, where can she go?" Ying'er was dissatisfied.

"Of course it was an accident, I was selected as the show girl by shit luck!" Ling'er said unconvinced.

"Ah, don't worry! Since the girl said she wants to come back, she won't be chosen!" Ying'er said calmly, seeing Linger give a question "Who do you think you are? "Up" in her eyes, Ying'er continued, "You have to trust the girl, if the girl is not willing, I don't think anyone can do anything about it!"

Uh, huh, Yinger, your words have reached my heart. "Ling'er, don't worry! I'll be back in a few days, you just think I'm going on vacation these few days!" I patted Ling'er on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Really!" Linger's eyes turned red for some reason, "The girl must come back, don't leave us behind!"

Yinger seemed to be infected by her, and her eyes were also red. I watched from the side, and my eyes were also red. After a while, I forced a smile and said: "What is this? They’re back again! You don’t want them anymore, okay?” Seeing that the two of them didn’t speak, I continued, “Go back and rest, I’m going to rest too, otherwise I won’t have the energy to deal with what will happen in the future tomorrow. thing?"

"Oh, that girl should have a good rest too!" The two said goodbye before reluctantly leaving.
