Edge of the Red Chamber
Chapter 35
On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Daiyu got up in the morning and went out for twenty laps as usual. She was sweating all over. When she returned to her room to rest for a while, she took a bath and changed into a pink silk shirt and a long green floral dress. , Then go to save the old lady.
When I went in, I saw Zhang Feng'e's eyes were swollen like peaches. I thought she was still crying just now, the tears were still on her face, and her wife's expression was not very good.Assuming that it was the old lady who was reprimanding Zhang Feng'e for something, she didn't salute, so she stepped forward and pulled the old lady's arm, shaking it and said, "During Children's Day, the old lady must not be angry."
The old lady looked pale, she pulled Daiyu to sit beside her, then raised her hand to wave to Zhang Feng'e, Zhang Feng'e got up and sat on the other side of the old lady.
The old lady also hugged her in her arms, and said angrily: "What are you still remembering what such an indiscriminate fool said? Put away your tears quickly, and you won't be afraid that your sister will laugh at you."
The old lady's tone was not good. Zhang Feng'e's eyes were red again when she heard this, but she leaned into the old lady's arms, choked up and said, "From now on, I only recognize the old lady and only my younger sister and sister-in-law."
Seeing this situation, Daiyu seemed to understand a little bit in her heart.Like Zhang Feng'e, she is a motherless child, so she treats her three or four points more than she used to treat Lin Jun.Seeing this now, she thinks that although she has no mother, she has her father and brother to rely on. Although she has a father and a mother, it is as if she has no parents. Otherwise, she would not have to live away from her parents and rely on the old lady.Thinking about it this way, I am a thousand times stronger than Zhang Feng'e.Seeing that the old lady's face was also not good, she didn't dare to ask, so she threw herself into the old lady's arms and said, "So sister Feng didn't recognize us in the past? It's a pity that I always miss you." call the shots.
Zhang Feng'e didn't know the truth from the false, and Daiyu had always been an honest person, so she just thought that Daiyu really thought so, wanted to tell her, but she didn't know where to start, she was so anxious that she burst into tears.
It turned out that Zhang Feng'e had been thinking about going home since the next year, but her father wrote back twice, but she didn't reveal this meaning, and I don't know what her father thought.
She thought in her heart that at her age, if she didn't go home, wouldn't it be a dilemma for the Lin family-whether they should arrange a marriage for her.If it is Zhang Luo, it doesn't mean that her parents are complete, and her grandparents are also there. If she really does Zhang Luo for her, she will be suspected of being overstepped;Thinking about it further, I'm afraid it will hinder the official career of the Lin family and his son.
Starting from the old lady of the Lin family, several masters love her, even the servants below respect her.She knew all of this in her heart, and if she said something that was not necessary, in her heart, she actually felt that the members of the Lin family were more like relatives.Don't talk about Chen, nor her direct mother, Zheng. After all, she died early. It is one ten-thousandth that of the Lin family.The only thing she misses about her father is that he sent her to the old lady's side.In the past two years, she has benefited tens of thousands of times compared to what she has learned in the past ten years.
It was because the Lin family treated her so well that she didn't want the Lin family to be criticized for a little bit because of her.
Therefore, after hesitating again and again, he took the initiative to bring up the matter of going home.I don't want to, the letter I received yesterday was not in her father's handwriting, I guess it was a letter from Mrs. Chen, but I don't know if her father meant it.What she said, not to mention that a girl of her age would not be able to say it, even if she dared not even think about it, she was also ashamed and ashamed, wishing she had never lived in this world.
The son didn't say anything about her parents' faults. She wanted to explain to Daiyu, but she couldn't open her mouth. This is one of them.Second, when she came to Lin's house, she thought it was a temporary stay, and she would go back one day. After getting to know Daiyu well, she also loved her as a person, and she only cherished her as a younger sister, so she was naturally close. At this moment, she Feeling ashamed of the Lin family, she unconsciously underestimated herself, Daiyu was unavoidably timid in front of her, and she looked forward and backward when speaking, lest she might miss a sentence or half a sentence.So, where can I speak.
Daiyu was going to make trouble with her, but seeing that she had lost her former cleverness, she didn't see what she meant to make fun of, instead of laughing she began to cry, and she became anxious again.
I couldn't figure out the reason for a while, but I knew that the words just now must have offended her, so I quickly said: "Sister, what's the matter? It must be the girl who made my sister angry. My sister should tell the old lady to just kick her out."
Seeing Daiyu talking and laughing, she knew it was to explain herself, and thinking of Daiyu's kindness to her in the past, Zhang Feng'e felt even more guilty, suppressed her tears, and said with a smile: "How ever?" Generally speaking, Zhang Feng'e felt relaxed, and her demeanor became more casual. She wiped away the tears from her cheeks with a handkerchief, and then said: "Sister's words are nice now, and when she turns around, she will be beaten and scolded, so she should soften her heart." gone."
Liuli had already led three or four little maids to wait with basins, handkerchiefs, target mirrors, etc. Seeing that Zhang Feng'e was getting better, she led them in.Another two little maids carried a scorpion in front of Zhang Feng'e.Liuli came up to help roll up the sleeves and remove the bracelet, took a large handkerchief and covered Zhang Feng'e's front skirt, Zhang Feng'e stretched out her hand to wash in the washbasin, and Liuli took a handkerchief to cover her eyes.
After her face was evened out again, the old lady saw that her complexion was much better, and she couldn't tell that she had just cried. She sighed inaudibly, and then smiled and said, "You are just thinking too much, so you are so happy." That's good."
After speaking, Lu Huixian and Mrs. Zhao Lin Jun came over together, and the old lady smiled and said, "Why did you meet together?"
Lin Jun went up to greet her and said, "I just met you outside," then turned her head and said to Daiyu, "I didn't know you were here, and I said I'd go to your room first, but luckily I didn't."
After saying hello to Mrs. Zhao, Daiyu and Lu Huixian said, "I don't have to go to school today, so I came here early in the morning." After that, she laughed and said to Mrs. Zhao, "This person, I talked to her yesterday. I said it, but I forgot it in a blink of an eye, and when I looked back, it was my fault again, and my aunt had to make the decision for me."
Lin Jun thought for a while, then remembered, blushed, and said, "I forgot it for a while."
Mrs. Zhao nodded her forehead, gritted her teeth and scolded with a smile: "I don't know what you think about all day long. You are a little older, just forget this and forget that. What you just said, you can't remember it when you turn around. At our age, is that okay?" Although it was scolding, the pampering was self-evident.
The old lady had no children, so she changed her mind again, she loved the children most in the family, she couldn't see them, and said: "During today's festival, what's the matter, which day can't be said, so let's talk about it today? "
After getting along these days, Mrs. Zhao is not as cautious as before.Knowing that the old lady loves her granddaughter dearly, she was not upset, she just smiled and said yes, and said in her heart: "This old lady has a smile on her face, and her temper has gone back."
After finishing speaking, seeing five or six women coming in with large boxes of multicolored enamel, they went to mediate with Lu Huixian and the two of them.After breakfast, I accompanied the old lady to talk about how to spend the holidays in Gusu and Yangzhou, but the old lady left because she was going to the Buddhist hall, and Lin Jun and Daiyu went to her room with Zhang Feng'e.
Ye Zi and the others had just finished their meal and were cleaning up when they heard someone talking outside.
One was the voice of the little girl Cai Er, saying: "Mom is here, can I have dinner?"
That one said: "I ate it, but the girl is back?"
Ye Zi heard that it was probably her mother's voice, and hurriedly lifted the curtain.Cai'er helped her mother to come over, smiled and said, "Why is mother here at this time? We just finished eating and haven't cleaned up yet. Today we all got rewards and added several dishes. I haven't finished eating, do you want some more?"
Mother He took out a purse from her sleeve, handed it to her, and said, "I'll give this to the girl." Ye Zi and Cai'er both looked at it, but they saw it was an extremely exquisitely crafted five-poison talisman, " I have been working on this one for half a month." He added: "I was supposed to send it over yesterday, but my memory is not good, and a few old sisters talked about it for a while, but turned around and forgot. When I think about it at night, everything is locked again.”
Ye Zi smiled and said: "Yesterday, the girl asked. Seeing that it was dark and Mom hadn't come yet, she said that she must have been dragged by someone and said she forgot, and she was right."
Sister He patted Ye Zi twice with a smile, and scolded: "Dare to arrange for your mother to come, is this the rule you learned?"
While talking, the two entered the room, the table had already been cleaned up, and only three bowls of dishes that had been slightly moved were left. A servant girl brought over the rice and said, "Mom, don't be disgusted, we only moved these bowls slightly." move."
Mammy He didn't want to pick it up, and saw that her food was already full, so it was hard to push, so she said, "I just ate it," and asked, "What is this fried food?"
Ye Zi said: "It's quail. I got it today. I tasted the leg and saw that it tasted good. Let them. They only tasted it a little, but they refused to eat it. In the end, it was better. After putting it away, keep it for lunch and dinner, Mom will try two, how do you like it?" Then she told the little girl, "You don't need the meal, just fill it with half a bowl of mung bean porridge." She also asked her to wash her hands and clean it for her mother herself. quail.
Mother He liked it, and she kept saying: "I got it today, but not this." She also said: "Since you like to eat, you can keep it for yourself. I'll just try to tear some legs off."
The little maid brought the porridge and said: "Mom and sister are talking, I have something to do, so I won't accompany you old man."
Mother He liked it in her heart, and she couldn't help it. Seeing her go out, she said to Ye Zi: "This is the rule of everyone, it's not like..." In the middle of speaking, she shook her head again and again, and asked: "Young lady is still old. In the wife's room?"
Ye Zi nodded, thinking about the letter from her hometown, wondering if she should tell her mother.Thinking about it, I couldn't help being dazed, holding a quail in my hand, and didn't move for a long time.Mother He saw it, and first thought about what happened to Zhang Feng'e, she hurriedly called Ye Zi, saw her look over, and asked anxiously: "Miss, how are you these days? Don't you keep it from me?"
Seeing her mother like this, Ye Zi dared to hide it, so she said it in a hurry.Nanny He was not a stupid one, she could see it more clearly than Zhang Feng'e, but she was still so angry that she almost dropped the bowl in her hand.Ye Zi caressed her chest and patted her back again, while persuading her: "If you want me to say, it's better if you don't go back. Although this is not my own home, whoever doesn't love our girl is more comfortable than at home. some."
Mother He slowed down, seeing that Ye Zi's words were inappropriate, she quickly stopped, and said, "Shut up quickly, you can say these things?" Then she lowered her face and said angrily, "The girl wrote back the letter It must be detained by the wife, the old lady and the old man must not know." He sighed again: "The girl has grown up in the past two years, and she behaves well. I see that she is better than our wife. She only thinks about it. The weight side is still the same." This "our wife" is naturally not Mrs. Chen, but Mrs. Zheng.
Mother He didn't need to ask, she also knew that Zhang Feng'e must have mentioned in the letter that she wanted to go home, which annoyed Mrs. Chen.
She can probably guess what Mrs. Chen is thinking. It is nothing more than wanting Zhang Feng'e to be close to the water first, not to be the second mistress, but also to find a concubine, so that she can cling to the Lin family to find a way out for her master.
Of course, according to Chen's thoughts, if the second girl is not too young, I am afraid that the master will make a fuss that day and ask the master to send the second girl here.
Although the Zhang family is in decline, it is also a family of scholars, how can they do such shameless things?
Ye Zi didn't know Zhang Feng'e's concerns, nor did she understand her mother's thoughts. It was also because she was young and a maidservant. Seeing that their master and servant lived tens of thousands of times better in Lin's house than they did when they were at home, she couldn't help but feel sad. Thinking of this is good, naturally he doesn't want to go back to Zhang's house.
After being scolded by her mother, she didn't dare to speak back, but she didn't think so in her heart, she just lowered her head and tore her legs.
Mother He deliberately told her that this is not her own home after all, Zhang Feng'e's surname is Zhang and not Lin, and the Lin family treats their masters and servants well, that's the kindness of the masters of the Lin family, but they must be clear in their hearts.Thinking about the situation when she was at home, Zhang Feng'e had a bad life, let alone a slave?She is just this one girl, how can she not feel distressed?I can't say that.Forget it, when Mrs. Lin makes an appointment for the girl, even if she goes back, she will go out in only a year or so. What's more, with the old lady around, even if life is not as good as it is now, it will be better than before.After thinking about it, I didn't want to say it.
Suddenly a little maid came in and asked which table to move, Ye Zi didn't get up, she turned her head and said, "I was going to say it just now, but I forgot, so I moved the camphor wood Eight Immortals table in the girl's room, and all the chairs were moved there. Don't be busy, wait for the girls to come and take it out in time." The servant girl agreed to go.
Mother He asked, "What are you doing moving the table?"
Ye Zi smiled and said, "Isn't today the Dragon Boat Festival? The girls want to make zongzi, and they agreed to come over after breakfast."
Mother He said angrily: "Nonsense," but couldn't help laughing, "How do you say that, there are a group of maids and women in the room, and there are not no waiters in the kitchen, so I'm not afraid to use a few of them to do things." They cut off their hands, and the old lady let them go?" Even so, he still said to Ye Zi: "Don't stay here, go out and watch them, they are young, don't accidentally knock their teeth."
Hearing this, Ye Zi still couldn't get up, pushed the torn quail meat to her mother, took another quail, and said, "It's okay, they are all careful people."
Nanny He ate a few mouthfuls of porridge, when she heard the sound of greetings from outside, she knew that it was Daiyu and the others who had come, so Nanny He hurriedly put down the bowl, asked Ye Zi to wash her hands, and at the same time lifted the curtain and went out by herself.
Three of Zhang Feng'e entered the Moon Cave Gate, when she saw a servant girl wiping the table with a rag in the pavilion, and another three servant girls walked out of the room with chairs, talking and laughing.
Lin Jun was talking about what to pack this year. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "These girls are lazy too. We are all here, and the things are not ready yet."
I am used to talking and joking, but today Zhang Feng'e couldn't help but think too much, she felt that she was talking about herself for no reason, and she knew that Lin Jun didn't have such meaning in her heart, she couldn't help being ashamed secretly, but she didn't dare to show it .Seeing that the maids put down what they were doing to pay respects, they waved their hands and said, "Hurry up, where is Ye Zi? Why didn't you see her? Where did you go to be lazy?"
Before she could say a word, seeing Nanny He coming out of the room, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red, but she couldn't help it, she went up to meet her, and asked with a smile, "When did Mommy come?"
Although Lin Jun didn't see it, Madam He could tell Zhang Feng'e should have cried at a glance. She was so distressed that she couldn't show it because of Daiyu and Lin Jun's presence. When I saw them eating the leftover fried quail, I got hungry and drank another bowl of mung bean porridge."
Lin Jun said, "That's good for porridge. It's also good for eating and playing."
Daiyu also said: "Go back and ask Sister Xian. If there are still some, I will fry some and send them over at noon. Let me see, the old lady likes it too."
Ye Zi washed her hands and came out, seeing that a group of servant girls had surrounded Daiyu and went to the pavilion, so she turned around and went inside to make tea.
The author has something to say: Sorry, I haven't updated in two days, and I won't be in the next few days.
When I went in, I saw Zhang Feng'e's eyes were swollen like peaches. I thought she was still crying just now, the tears were still on her face, and her wife's expression was not very good.Assuming that it was the old lady who was reprimanding Zhang Feng'e for something, she didn't salute, so she stepped forward and pulled the old lady's arm, shaking it and said, "During Children's Day, the old lady must not be angry."

The old lady's tone was not good. Zhang Feng'e's eyes were red again when she heard this, but she leaned into the old lady's arms, choked up and said, "From now on, I only recognize the old lady and only my younger sister and sister-in-law."

It's a pity that I always miss you." call the shots.
Zhang Feng'e didn't know the truth from the false, and Daiyu had always been an honest person, so she just thought that Daiyu really thought so, wanted to tell her, but she didn't know where to start, she was so anxious that she burst into tears.
It turned out that Zhang Feng'e had been thinking about going home since the next year, but her father wrote back twice, but she didn't reveal this meaning, and I don't know what her father thought.

After speaking, Lu Huixian and Mrs. Zhao Lin Jun came over together, and the old lady smiled and said, "Why did you meet together?"
Lin Jun went up to greet her and said, "I just met you outside," then turned her head and said to Daiyu, "I didn't know you were here, and I said I'd go to your room first, but luckily I didn't."

Ye Zi nodded, thinking about the letter from her hometown, wondering if she should tell her mother.Thinking about it, I couldn't help being dazed, holding a quail in my hand, and didn't move for a long time.Mother He saw it, and first thought about what happened to Zhang Feng'e, she hurriedly called Ye Zi, saw her look over, and asked anxiously: "Miss, how are you these days? Don't you keep it from me?"
Seeing her mother like this, Ye Zi dared to hide it, so she said it in a hurry.Nanny He was not a stupid one, she could see it more clearly than Zhang Feng'e, but she was still so angry that she almost dropped the bowl in her hand.Ye Zi caressed her chest and patted her back again, while persuading her: "If you want me to say, it's better if you don't go back.

Mother He deliberately told her that this is not her own home after all, Zhang Feng'e's surname is Zhang and not Lin, and the Lin family treats their masters and servants well, that's the kindness of the masters of the Lin family, but they must be clear in their hearts.Thinking about the situation when she was at home, Zhang Feng'e had a bad life, let alone a slave?She is just this one girl, how can she not feel distressed?I can't say that.Forget it, when Mrs. Lin makes an appointment for the girl, even if she goes back, she will go out in only a year or so. What's more, with the old lady around, even if life is not as good as it is now, it will be better than before.After thinking about it, I didn't want to say it.
Suddenly a little maid came in and asked which table to move, Ye Zi didn't get up, she turned her head and said, "I was going to say it just now, but I forgot, so I moved the camphor wood Eight Immortals table in the girl's room, and all the chairs were moved there. Don't be busy, wait for the girls to come and take it out in time." The servant girl agreed to go.
Mother He asked, "What are you doing moving the table?"
Ye Zi smiled and said, "Isn't today the Dragon Boat Festival? The girls want to make zongzi, and they agreed to come over after breakfast."
Mother He said angrily: "Nonsense," but couldn't help laughing, "How do you say that, there are a group of maids and women in the room, and there are not no waiters in the kitchen, so I'm not afraid to use a few of them to do things." They cut off their hands, and the old lady let them go?" Even so, he still said to Ye Zi: "Don't stay here, go out and watch them, they are young, don't accidentally knock their teeth."
Hearing this, Ye Zi still couldn't get up, pushed the torn quail meat to her mother, took another quail, and said, "It's okay, they are all careful people."
Nanny He ate a few mouthfuls of porridge, when she heard the sound of greetings from outside, she knew that it was Daiyu and the others who had come, so Nanny He hurriedly put down the bowl, asked Ye Zi to wash her hands, and at the same time lifted the curtain and went out by herself.
Three of Zhang Feng'e entered the Moon Cave Gate, when she saw a servant girl wiping the table with a rag in the pavilion, and another three servant girls walked out of the room with chairs, talking and laughing.
Lin Jun was talking about what to pack this year. Seeing this, she smiled and said, "These girls are lazy too. We are all here, and the things are not ready yet."
I am used to talking and joking, but today Zhang Feng'e couldn't help but think too much, she felt that she was talking about herself for no reason, and she knew that Lin Jun didn't have such meaning in her heart, she couldn't help being ashamed secretly, but she didn't dare to show it .Seeing that the maids put down what they were doing to pay respects, they waved their hands and said, "Hurry up, where is Ye Zi? Why didn't you see her? Where did you go to be lazy?"
Before she could say a word, seeing Nanny He coming out of the room, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red, but she couldn't help it, she went up to meet her, and asked with a smile, "When did Mommy come?"
Although Lin Jun didn't see it, Madam He could tell Zhang Feng'e should have cried at a glance. She was so distressed that she couldn't show it because of Daiyu and Lin Jun's presence. When I saw them eating the leftover fried quail, I got hungry and drank another bowl of mung bean porridge."
Lin Jun said, "That's good for porridge. It's also good for eating and playing."
Daiyu also said: "Go back and ask Sister Xian. If there are still some, I will fry some and send them over at noon. Let me see, the old lady likes it too."
Ye Zi washed her hands and came out, seeing that a group of servant girls had surrounded Daiyu and went to the pavilion, so she turned around and went inside to make tea.
