Concubine daughter of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

Shi Aizhu said awkwardly, "Wanru's sister is really amazing."

Liu Xuan said: "They are real sisters. Seeing that my sister is injured, my sister will definitely be anxious."

Shui Judao: "Actually, I've also heard that Wan Ru's father used to be Tanhua, and his ancestral home was in Suzhou. It's just that the two sisters lost their father and had nothing to rely on, so they lived in Jia's mansion. By the way, Wan Ru's biological mother and Duke Qi's mansion Grandma is still a cousin, but Chen Ruiwen is Wanru's cousin."

Shi Aizhu and Liu Xuan's faces turned pale: "What if Wanru tells that living Hades and he comes to seek revenge from us?"

Shui Rou gave the two of them a white look: "How can you talk nonsense about such a thing, don't worry."

But Shi Aizhu and Liu Xuan did not look relaxed at all.

After listening to the order, Xianglan hurried to Jinhuatang to find Lin Wanru, but Lin Wanru was pulled away by Shi Aizhu, and she just missed it. It's not a good idea to wander somewhere.

She searched several places back and forth along that road, but she still couldn't see anyone. She was about to cry, so she hurried to tell Princess Minghua, and Princess Minghua asked someone to look for it again. Only then did she know that Lin Wanru had died. Back in the garden, I naturally heard about being scratched by a cat.

Others may be confused if they don't know, but Princess Minghua is so shrewd. She is afraid that the girls will have accidents. All the girls who go boating must report to her first. She nods before the women dare to set off. I personally don't row boats at all, and Liu Xuan's Persian cat is the most docile and doesn't scratch people at all, there must be some reason for this.

It's just that the banquet was still in progress, so she didn't want to investigate it carefully, so she gently uncovered it.

When it was time to sit at noon, everyone returned to Nongyu Xiaozhu. The partitions on all sides had been removed and turned into a spacious open hall. At the front was a small stage, and a dozen of them were arranged neatly in a row below. square table.

There is a table for every four girls, and the maids lead them to the table. Shi Aizhu, Liu Xuan and Shui Rou sit at the front table.

Lin Wanru sat at a table with Lin Daiyu, Xue Baochai, and Chen Ruishuang. Next to them were Jia's Sanchun and Sister Feng, and on the other side were the Chen family's two sisters and the Shi family's two sisters.

After the play started, the girls filed in and served the dishes one by one. Everyone was drinking while listening to the play. At first, they couldn't let go and were a little cautious, but after Shi Aizhu took the lead in the front row and said hello, everyone It's a lot easier.

Lin Wanru heard Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun talk about Jiang Yuhan: "...I heard that he is an actor from Prince Zhongshun's mansion. King Zhongshun likes it very much, so he lives in the mansion..." Lin Wanru's hand tightened, and King Zhongshun...

Lin Daiyu took hold of her chopsticks, frowned and said, "If you have a wound, you are not allowed to eat heavy-colored things." Then she personally served her vegetables, which turned out to be some steamed or stewed vegetables, so Lin Wanru had no choice but to swallow them without taste.

A girl brought a bowl of soup, smiling: "The princess said that this fish soup is the best, without any condiments, it is most suitable for Wanru girls to drink, so ask your servant to bring it."

Lin Wanru thanked with a smile, and Shi Xiangyun laughed next to him: "Or Wanru is lucky, and the two princesses are attracted to you." Xue Baochai also smiled and nodded. To be honest, she was also quite envious.

But Lin Daiyu rolled her eyes angrily, whoever wants such good luck will want it, she doesn't want Wanru to want it, what can I do with this neck injury.

Jiang Yuhan deserves to be a famous actor, when the imperial concubine sang softly and lingeringly while drunk, Lin Wanru became dumbfounded because of Xue Baochai's words just now, King Zhongshun is the emperor's uncle, he was brave and good at fighting when he was young, the late emperor liked it very much, later the late emperor passed away, When the emperor ascended the throne, he was a little jealous of him and withdrew his military power.

King Zhongshun is also knowledgeable and interesting. His title back then was Zhongyong, but later he personally wrote a letter saying that he was old and could not bear this title, so he left it to the younger generations, and asked the emperor to give him the title again.

This is a disguised show of weakness, the emperor is naturally happy, bestowing the title Zhongshun, the meaning is self-evident, and he often bestows a lot of beautiful women and jewels on King Zhongshun, King Zhongshun may have been a soldier for the first half of his life, tired, and wants to have a good rest , just idle at home, hanging out in the inner house all day long.

Either it is taking concubines, or raising opera singers. The older you are, the more absurd your behavior is. In the previous life, Lin Wanru even heard that King Zhongshun liked to play with his husband, and even raised eleven or twelve-year-old girls. Send it to serve King Zhongshun, the more immature, the more King Zhongshun likes it.

In the previous life, King Zhongshun went to the south of the Yangtze River in person, and he fell in love with Zhuang Mengdie at a glance. He didn't show up in person, but just asked his housekeeper to come to threaten and lure him. Under such persecution, Zhuang Mengdie had no choice but to become a nun...

In this life, although Zhuang Mengdie became Miaoyu, he experienced the same fate, and the culprit was King Zhongshun.

After singing two plays, the girls couldn't sit still, and they left the table one after another and gathered together in small groups to chat and laugh, and the stage was replaced by two old clowns making jokes there.

Playing until mid-afternoon, people from each family came to pick them up, and everyone also said their goodbyes. They also thanked Princess Minghua for their hospitality. Lin Wanru also followed the sisters of the Jia family to thank them and went home.

Chen Ruiwen picked up the three younger sisters and waited outside the door. Today he was ordered to take Lin Wanru over, but Lin Wanru was injured, how could Lin Daiyu be relieved, she refused politely, and Chen Ruiwen looked at Jia with a sullen face. The family's carriage went further and further away.

Chen Ruixue said: "Brother, don't be angry. It seems that it is not convenient to visit our house now. Her neck is injured."

Chen Ruiwen's heart tightened, and he hurriedly asked what was going on, and Chen Ruixue told what happened today.

Chen Ruiwen frowned secretly, did he really get scratched by the cat, or did someone bully him?

In case she suffers a loss, it's hard to say, but what should I do if I hold it in my heart?Chen Ruiwen's heart suddenly ached.

After returning home, Mother Jia inevitably asked some more questions when she saw her, so Sister Feng hugged herself: "It's all my fault for not taking good care of my sister."

Jia's mother didn't say anything, she asked someone to invite a doctor, gave him some wound medicine, and told someone to take Lin Wanru back home.

Aunt Shen's heart ached even more when she saw her, and it took Lin Wanru a long time to persuade her.

In the Princess Mansion, Princess Minghua finished seeing off the guests, and then she called Shi Aizhu and Liu Xuan over. The two couldn't help asking, and they vented their feelings in a few words. Shi Aizhu was timid, so she told the story.

Princess Minghua was furious: "You sisters didn't talk about fighting, but even called outsiders to persuade them, and even scratched them. If this gets out, do you two still want to see people? I indulged you, today I have to punish you."

Shi Aizhu was extremely wronged: "Wan Ruan said that she won't say it."

Princess Ming Hua was even more angry: "You will believe her if she says it or not, who is she?"

Liu Xuan hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't be angry, Wanru is not an outsider, she is Chen Ruiwen's cousin, and she has a gentle temperament. Shuirou was there at that time, we all like Wanru."

Princess Minghua was angry just now, but now she thinks about it calmly, she thinks that Lin Wanru is really good, if there is another girl next to her, she will either be frightened and rush to call someone, or she will be frightened.

Just like Shuirou, this friendship from childhood to adulthood, at the time I felt that it was not easy to make a move, once I made a move, who would help?

And Lin Wanru was fearless, not only stepped forward to stop him, but also said that, if it doesn't make sense, can he convince these two stubborn donkeys?

Not to mention the courage, but also the knowledge, such a person should have a good character. Thinking of this, she breathed a sigh of relief. Liu Xuan, observing her words, hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Princess Minghua's arm: "Auntie, Xuan'er knows Wrong, don't be angry, don't tell mother, or she will punish me again."

Princess Shunhua is not as kind as Princess Minghua, and treats her children a little harshly. Princess Minghua smiled: "Can you not tell such a big thing? Your cat scratched his neck. If there is a scar , If you lose your appearance, your whole life will be ruined, this is not a trivial matter, not only your mother, but also me as the host must come to the door to apologize in person to be considered a complete courtesy."

Liu Xuan immediately said embarrassingly: "I gave her the ointment from the palace, it will definitely not leave scars."

Princess Minghua sighed, and asked an old lady to visit Liu's house, discussing when she would come.

After Chen Ruixue went back, she told Shen Shi about the incident, and Shen Shi came again with the medicine and said: "This is really a disaster without reason. It is said that the animals raised by the princess should be trained, and they are the most docile. Why? It will scratch people."

Lin Wanru smiled and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, I'm not afraid of cats, but I'll be fine after a couple of scratches."

Shen smiled and said: "It's good that you are so reassuring. If you are always worried about whether you will get better, it will not be easy to get better."

While talking, Mother Jia sent someone to say that the two eldest princesses came to visit Lin Wanru. Aunt Shen was taken aback. Even Mrs. Shen was a little surprised. Seeing that Aunt Shen was busy asking someone to bring the new clothes, she stopped her with a smile. Li said: "The two princesses came to see Wanru's injuries. We dressed up specially to make people feel flattered. Just change into ordinary clothes for meeting guests. It's fine if you don't lose courtesy."

Aunt Shen was naturally convinced of Mrs. Shen, and hurried to get the clothes, and changed into them and went with Lin Wanru.
