Edge of the Red Chamber

At Maozheng, Daiyu got up, and the red silk waiter changed into a double-breasted pipa jacket and a pair of bloomers. After washing, she hurriedly walked to the back of the house, complaining to the red silk, saying: "Sister also Don't say call me earlier, I'm afraid it will be late today."

Hongxiao nodded, and still said: "Girl, don't be in such a hurry, it's still early."

Daiyu didn't look at her watch for a while, but when she heard the words, she hurriedly took out a pocket watch inlaid with silver and pearls from her bosom, and took a look at it. It’s so bright, I expected it to be late, but I didn’t expect it to be so early.” After speaking, he said, “That’s fine, let’s walk a few more laps today.”

After entering the pavilion, he didn't need to be waited on. He sat on a round drum stool and changed his soft-soled shoes. Seeing that the red silk hadn't been changed, he asked, "Aren't you going with me today?"

Hongxiao waved her hand and said, "Let's teach Xiangcheng to go with you today. I'll tidy up the house. I changed things yesterday, but I haven't tidied up. It's better to put it in the warehouse as soon as possible, otherwise it will be put in the house." Outside, there are many people with miscellaneous hands, so don't be touched by anyone with shallow eyes; the second one doesn't look like it."

Daiyu didn't care about these things. After hearing this, she just waved her hands and went up the corridor by herself, "Go, don't be in a hurry, clean up slowly."

"Then I'll call Xiangcheng." Hongxiao said, seeing that Daiyu had gone to the side of the stone, she turned around and told Lufei a few words before going to Xiangcheng.

After a while, Xiangcheng ran in with a gust of wind, also dressed in short clothes and long trousers, yelling: "I just went out for a while, and the girl didn't say wait for me." After taking off her shoes, she asked Lu Fei, "How many times has the girl walked?"

Seeing her standing on one foot and changing her shoes, Lu Fei hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and said, "Sister, sit down first too, so don't fall down," adding, "I just walked three times."

Lu Fei was supported by her, changed her shoes, and said, "Why are there so many details?"

Daiyu had just turned around at that time, and when she saw Xiangcheng, she said, "Where have you been?"

"Didn't the girl say that she wanted the dew on the flowers to make tea? I rushed to collect some, and brought it back to the girl to have a look." Xiangcheng said, and also went up the corridor, followed behind Daiyu, walking side by side , One side said: "Last night I looked at the samples that were about to bloom. Yao Huang and the others pinched all the red and purple ones, leaving only a few white ones. I got up early this morning to have a look, and it turned out There are quite a few, so I took the crystal glass bottle to collect the dew, and there are quite a few, and I will get half of the bottle."

Seeing that Daiyu didn't speak, she didn't care, and went on to say: "Girl, shall I follow you to the study outside today?"

Hearing this, Daiyu couldn't help being surprised, she paused for a while, and then continued walking, "I told you to go there earlier, but you were unwilling in every possible way, why are you willing again today?"

Hearing this, Yucheng blushed.

It turned out that Lin Hai invited her husband back for Daiyu two years ago. Jia Min thought that her daughter was studying alone, and the children were impatient, and there was no one to compare with. He was afraid that he would not be able to sit still, so he said that he would choose two girls to study with him. There is someone who can send a message if something happens.When Hongxiao and Xiangcheng followed Jia Min, they followed the big girl above to read and write. It's just that Xiangcheng was younger and mischievous, so she didn't like to learn. Jia Min thought about asking her, and there happened to be Honghao taking care of the house. , She also felt relieved, who would have thought that when Xiang Cheng heard that she wanted to read and write, she waved her hands again and again.Jia Min was also funny at the time, and she didn't force it, she just called a few little maids in and asked them, and they were all willing.There are five or six, so naturally it is impossible to go to all of them.Jia Min picked and picked again and again, seeing that Lan Qiao and Zi Yuan stood out, and it was rare that they were intelligent and restrained, so she chose them.

Xiangcheng squeaked but refused to speak, Daiyu saw that she couldn't ask, so she threw it aside.The two of them walked around twenty times, sweating all over, before entering the pavilion. The red gauze waited early, and the waiter Daiyu took off her clothes, wiped off her sweat, and changed into clean clothes.

Lu Fei and Yao Huang prepared breakfast, a bowl of mung bean porridge, a bowl of lily rouge rice porridge, a plate of small dumplings about an inch long, a plate of buns the size of a child's fist, and four small plates. There are goose breasts with rouge, shredded lettuce with salad, peanuts soaked in vinegar, and shredded chicken with sesame oil.

Daiyu pointed to mung bean and green rice porridge, and Lufei hurriedly moved to Daiyu.

After eating for a while, he said, "ask the kitchen to add some more, and you can use them here."

Hong Hom was busy thanking the others, and Hong Hom said: "It's not necessary, we also have a share, why don't you bring it over, as much as you can."

Jia Min never allowed people to waste food, and Daiyu was deeply affected by it.Hearing this, he nodded.Yao Huang didn't wait for Hongxiao to come to order again, so he hurriedly said: "I'm afraid the sisters' meals have already been delivered in the kitchen, I'll get a little maid to bring them."

Daiyu recruited Hongxiao to wait on her, and seeing that Xiangcheng was not looking at her, she repeated what she had said about going to the study in the morning, and asked again, "What's the reason?"

Hung Hom thought about it for a while, then laughed suddenly, and said, "I'm afraid it was caused when I was packing yesterday." After that, she told Daiyu what happened yesterday in detail.

It turned out that after Mrs. Lu returned home, all the colorful objects in the house were put away, not to mention the ones used on the bed, the ones worn on the body, and the ones worn on the head. These are still small objects, except for the decorations in the house. The small ones, all of them add up to a lot, only the ones in Daiyu's room are replaced with three or four boxes.

Daiyu only has warehouses and account books, which are always handled by the red silk. No matter how busy she is, she is often in charge, and another one helps to keep the accounts.Ziyuan has always helped remember, but Ziyuan was not there yesterday, and Lan Qiao and those who can write also have their own affairs, and they all couldn't get away. He took her to count the boxes together.Originally, the red silk was used to keep accounts, and the oranges were used to pack the boxes, but she couldn't do delicate work, so she almost dropped a multicolored glazed cup. He gave her the account book in his hand, and when it was her turn to write it down, she couldn't understand two of the three words, and her face flushed with embarrassment.

After listening, Daiyu couldn't help laughing, clapped her hands and said: "It's a good idea, I hate that I didn't think of it before." Then she said: "In the future, when I come back to do my homework, I will teach her to write with me."

A few servant girls ate, Yao Huang went to pass water in, Daiyu took a bath, came out and saw Xiangcheng looking at her eagerly, and said with a smile: "If you have a ready-made gentleman, you don't ask for advice, but stay close and seek far away." When finished, he pointed at the red silk.

Xiangcheng was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward to bow to Hongxiao, and said, "Good sister, please do me some favors anyway." She asked the little maid to pour tea, but she had to do a formal obeisance to her teacher.

Hung Hom already has a heart, so what should I do?Seeing her asking for tea, she hurriedly said: "I only know a few words, but I can be a teacher? If you want to read, I will teach you. There are people I don't know, and there are girls."

Daiyu was busy going to school, and when she saw that the two of them had agreed, she said: "If you want to read, you must write. I still have paper on my desk, so I just use it." The two went out.

Xiangcheng got Daiyu's words, pulled the red silk and went to Daiyu's small study, the red silk didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said: "What's the hurry, the time will be long in the future? But the things in this room can't wait. , It’s serious to pack it up and put it in the warehouse earlier.”
