There is no phoenix

Daiyu laughed and said, "Among the three of us, Miaoyu and Fourth Sister may have changed the most. Sister Qin may not know that the husband of the two of them is not so kind to them, which makes people not envious It's all difficult. I heard that the fourth sister can do all kinds of housework now, and she does everything by herself, Liu Xianglian advised her not to worry so much, but the fourth sister said that such a life is just wishful for."

Baoqin smiled and said, "Sister Lin, don't talk about them, it's you, who wouldn't envy you and the young prince."

Daiyu laughed and said, "Sister Qin, we just talked and forgot that you are a guest. This is your first time here, and I will take you to the back garden, where the lotus is in full bloom. it's the same."

Baoqin hurriedly asked: "More lotus than Zilingzhou in the Grand View Garden?"

Daiyu nodded and said, "Yes, the Crown Prince and Concubine like lotus, so they plant a lot of them."

After Daiyu finished speaking, she walked hand in hand with Baoqin to the back garden, and said to Chunxian, "Chunxian, let the cook prepare some more dishes. This is Miss Qin's first visit."

Baoqin laughed and said, "I didn't even know that Sister Lin had given birth to a son. I'll make up the gift some other day."

Daiyu hurriedly said: "Sister Qin, we are sisters, we don't care about these little details. When my Lin'er grows up, it's not too late for you to give."

After the two of them finished talking, they had already come to the backyard, and from a distance, the lotus flowers in the pond were in full bloom.Baoqin praised: "I can't blame others for saying that the fairy mansion in the sky is the emperor's home on earth. My sister's Beijing Palace is really different."

Daiyu laughed and said, "It's just that there are more lotuses here than in the Grand View Garden. In fact, the whole palace is not as big as the Grand View Garden."

The two were talking and walking, when suddenly Baoqin stopped and said, "Sister Lin, who is playing the flute? The sound of the flute is matched with the lotus flowers in the pool, and the Jiangnan flavor is stronger. This flute plays well, and it must be a regular The flute player, sister, do you have a musician in your house?"

Daiyu said: "I don't seem to have one." Then she listened carefully and said with a smile, "The flute player is just ahead, Sister Qin, let's go and have a look."

Daiyu took Baoqin and turned around a rockery, and saw in a pavilion under a few willow trees in front of her, a person was leaning on a pillar and playing the flute with his back facing the lotus pond.

Seeing that Shui Xi had been concentrating on playing the flute, Daiyu and Baoqin didn't look back, so they didn't bother, just stood still and listened to the flute attentively.

But soon Shui Xi stopped playing the flute, turned around, saw that it was Daiyu and a strange but extremely beautiful woman, quickly supported the pillar with one hand, turned sideways to salute Daiyu: "I have seen Mrs. Wang! Mrs. Wang , do you know who this girl is?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "Brother Xi, Sister-in-law Wang didn't know that you played the flute so well. This is Mrs. Wang's former good sister, Miss Xue Baoqin, who came from Jinling today, so Sister-in-law Wang brought her to our garden to have a look. Please bother you."

After Daiyu finished speaking, she smiled at Baoqin, "Sister Qin, this is Shuixi, brother Rong's younger brother."

Baoqin hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Baoqin has seen the second son!"

Shui Xi hurriedly turned to return the salute: "Miss Qin, you don't need to be too polite. You are my sister-in-law's good sister and a guest of our house, so you don't need to be so polite."

After Shui Xi finished speaking, he slowly sat down while supporting the pillar.

Daiyu saw a painting on the stone table, she hurriedly pulled Baoqin closer and said, "Sister Qin, brother Xi, although my legs are inconvenient, I am smart and can do everything. How about this painting?" ?”

Baoqin picked up the painting and took a closer look, then nodded with a smile and said: "The painting is really good. Looking at this painting, I remembered the poem written by the girl from Zhenzhen Country again. Sister Lin, did the second son also go to sea?"

After hearing this, Daiyu looked at Shuixi suspiciously, and Shuixi smiled and said, "Sister-in-law Wang, Miss Qin, I have been sick since I was a child, and my legs are inconvenient. How can I go to sea? I read about it in a book. They say There are fairy mountains, Qionglou and Yuyu in the East China Sea, so I drew such a picture in my imagination. Could it be that Miss Qin has traveled to sea?"

Daiyu smiled and said: "Brother Xi, you don't know that my sister Qin is younger than me, but her ancestors were imperial merchants, and she followed her father across the ocean to do business since she was a child. Seven or eight of the ten pavilions in the world have gone. How do you know the real country?"

After hearing this, Shui Xi looked at Bao Qin in surprise and said, "Then Miss Qin said just now, looking at my painting reminds me of a poem by a girl from Zhenzhen Country, I'm thinking about how to write a poem for this painting, can you write Read that poem you said to me?"

Baoqin glanced at Shuixi, saw him sitting on a chair, his handsome face was looking at her quietly, as if waiting for her answer, so she read: "Last night Zhulou Meng, tonight Shuiguo Yin. Dao Yunzheng The sea, haze and jungle, the moon has no past and present, and the relationship is shallow and deep. Hannan Spring calendar, how can you not care. Second son, to take care of this painting, what do you think of the middle two sentences? Sister Lin, what do you say Woolen cloth?"

Daiyu also said: "The island cloud steams the sea, and the hazy air connects the forest. The moon has no past and present, and the relationship is shallow and deep. Well, it is really best to only use these two sentences."

Shui Xi smiled and said, "In this case, Miss Qin, how about you fill it in for me?"

After hearing this, Baoqin hurriedly said: "Second Young Master, my handwriting is not good, so don't ruin this painting."

Shui Xi said: "It doesn't matter, I originally drew it for myself to see, and I will never spread it outside."

Baoqin had no choice but to look at Daiyu. Seeing that Shuixi had been looking at Baoqin, Daiyu hurriedly smiled and said, "Sister Qin, since my younger brother Xi asked you to write it, you can write it down."

After hearing this, Baoqin had no choice but to pick up the pen on the table and inscribe those lines of poems on it.

Shui Xi saw that Baoqin's handwriting was strong and powerful, without the pettiness of a woman at all, so he secretly admired, stood up on the table by himself and said, "Now that I have a poem, I'll write the name of the painting, Sister Wang, look, I want to Is your name correct?"

After Shui Xi finished speaking, next to the poem written by Baoqin, write four characters slightly larger than the poem: Donghai Fairyland

Daiyu looked at it and said with a smile: "If you don't look carefully, the poems and characters seem to be written by one person. Brother Xi, do you play the flute, draw pictures and read books here every day?"

Shui Xi said: "No, Sister-in-law Wang, I spend most of my time playing chess and reading books at home, and today I smelled the fragrance of lotus flowers blowing by the wind from the pond, so I came out."

Daiyu was about to speak when Chunxian came over and said, "Princess, lunch is ready."

After hearing this, Daiyu hurriedly picked up the Baoqin, smiled at Shuixi and said, "Brother Xi, I'll take Miss Qin to dinner first."

Shui Xi nodded and smiled, "Sister-in-law Wang, please go ahead."

Daiyu returns to the Green Bamboo Garden with her Baoqin, only to see the nanny holding Shuilin on her way to the concubine's place.Daiyu couldn't help but stepped forward and said, "Nurse, wait a moment, I'll take a look at my Lin'er."

The nanny smiled and said: "Princess, the prince is laughing. After playing for a long time, he must be going to sleep soon."

Baoqin approached and said, "Sister Lin, I'll take a look at your child too!"

Daiyu took the child, and Baoqin leaned forward to take a closer look, and said with a smile, "Sister Lin's child is so handsome! So cute!"

The nanny laughed and said, "The prince and concubine are good-looking, so how can their children not look outstanding? With a good-looking girl like a girl, the children will definitely grow up well in the future."

Baoqin couldn't help but flushed when she heard it.

Daiyu laughed and said, "Sister Qin, what's there to be shy about? You haven't seen Sister Miaoyu's child. Her son is so handsome that he can already crawl away. There is also Xiangyun who is as old as you My son is a few months older than my Lin'er, and they are all good-looking. After a while, Liu Xianglian's son will be born, and I don't know how handsome he will be."

After hearing this, Baoqin couldn't help but enviously said: "You husband and wife are all talented and beautiful. In the future, your son will fascinate many girls!"

Daiyu smiled and said, "So sister Qin, you should find us a good brother-in-law as soon as possible, so that the child you will have in the future can be our child's companion."

Bao Qin blushed and said: "Sister Lin got married and became a princess, and her temperament has changed, just make fun of me."

Daiyu kissed Shui Lin, handed the child to the nanny, and gave some instructions. The nanny agreed, and took Shui Lin to the concubine's place.

Daiyu said to Baoqin with a smile: "Sister Qin, let's go to eat and talk while eating."

The two of them washed their hands for a while, Daiyu asked Huan'er to sit on it, and Chunxian accompanied her, looked at Baoqin with a smile and said: "Sister Qin, when you return to the capital this time, you should stay longer, right?"

Baoqin said: "Sister Lin, I'm a free man now, but I'm going to visit my aunt's house first, and then I'll visit the old lady. It's hot now, at least it's autumn."

Daiyu laughed and said, "Sister Ruoqin doesn't mind, she often comes to my place for a stroll, I'm at home every day."

Baoqin nodded and said: "Yes, sister Lin, when I see my aunt's family, I will go to see the old lady. I will definitely come to see sister Lin, even if I go back someday, I will definitely tell sister Lin !"
