There is no phoenix

After dinner the next day, Daiyu saw that it was still early, and wanted to see Miaoyu, so she brought Mei Qing, and they went to Changcui Temple while talking and laughing.

After leaving the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, I turned around the clump of bamboo, only to see Baoyu walking towards me alone.

Seeing Daiyu taking Mei Qing with her, Baoyu hurriedly asked, "Sister Lin, where are you going?"

Daiyu said: "Just after dinner, I came out for a walk. I haven't seen Miaoyu for a few days, so I want to visit her place."

Baoyu said: "Sister Lin, since you and the fourth younger sister went to Miaoyu's place a few times, you don't like to come to see me in Yihong Courtyard, so no one cares about me."

Daiyu smiled and said, "Baoyu, we are all grown up now, of course we each have our own things. You are now practicing martial arts and literature, and in a few years you will be like a general. We want to find you, but you are afraid There's no time to talk to us."

Baoyu heard this, and hurriedly said: "Sister Lin, others don't know my heart, don't you? It's all forced by the master and wife. I don't want to be like a general, and I can't be such a person. It's up to you Make fun of me with these words."

Daiyu laughed and said, "Brother Bao, why am I making fun of you? You don't go to Dongfu to learn archery every day, and you go to home to study. Isn't this considered learning literature and martial arts? Whose man is not like this? Or don't you?" Isn't it just sitting and eating?"

After Baoyu heard this, he looked at Daiyu with some doubts and said, "Sister Lin, don't you hate those chasing fame and fortune the most? Why is it different now?"

Daiyu said: "A gentleman loves money, and he gets it in a proper way. To make contributions, of course you have to rely on your own ability. If you rely on people's relationships, flattery and bullying others to get it, it's better to be a commoner and a monk."

After Baoyu heard this, he suddenly took Daiyu's hand and said, "Sister Lin, come with me, and I'll talk to you!"

Daiyu hurriedly broke free and said to Baoyu seriously: "Baoyu, if you do this again, I will never see you again."

Mei Qing heard this, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop Baoyu and said, "Second Master Bao, you can hear clearly, we girls don't like your hands and feet."

Baoyu knew that Mei Qing knew martial arts, and heard that she was a girl given to Daiyu by Shui Ruoning, a good friend of Daiyu's father, Prince of Beijing. Seeing Daiyu like this, he stepped back and said, "Sister Lin, you were not like this before. , we slept in the same bed when we were young, and often held hands, why do you care so much now?"

Daiyu heard this and said angrily, "Baoyu, look now, how old are we? There are differences between men and women, what do people look like?"

After Daiyu finished speaking, she turned and left.

Baoyu saw her, and hurried forward to catch up, but Mei Qing stopped there, so she could only look at Daiyu and said, "Sister Lin, is it so difficult for us to talk now? Is it that I am not worthy to talk to you?"

When Daiyu heard this, she said displeasedly, "Baoyu, if you talk like that again, you are not worthy!"

Seeing that Daiyu was a little angry, Baoyu hurriedly said, "Okay, Sister Lin, it's alright for me to just stand here and talk to you, right? You see, Mei Qing is standing there, so I don't want to go forward. "

Seeing that Baoyu was in such a hurry, Daiyu had no choice but to say, "Baoyu, tell me quickly, what exactly do you want to say?"

Baoyu looked at Mei Qing, but didn't speak.Daiyu had no choice but to say: "Baoyu, let me tell you, we are all grown up and we can't be the same as before. If you have something to say, say it once now, and I don't want to listen to it again in the future."

After Daiyu finished speaking, she said to Mei Qing, "Mei Qing, wait for me over there."

Mei Qing looked at Baoyu, then at Daiyu, and walked away.

Daiyu said: "Baoyu, if you have anything to say, tell me quickly, or I can go. I said I would go to see Miaoyu."

Seeing that Mei Qing had gone far away, Baoyu hurriedly said, "Sister Lin, I finally understand what you mean when you said about the parrot that day. Let me tell you, if there is anything wrong with me before, just tell me and I will definitely change it. I just hope that the two of us are still willing to play and talk with me as you did when you came to our house. We will be together for a long time, do you agree?"

Daiyu looked up at Baoyu, and asked in surprise, "Baoyu, you mean we will be together for a long time?"

Baoyu smiled and said, "Yes, isn't Sister Lin the most worried about this? Let me tell you now, after you left that day, I kept thinking about the story you told me about the love of birds. I finally understood what you meant, Sister Lin. .Sister Lin, let me tell you, I will be loyal to you for the rest of my life. Don't worry, before, I would not have dared to tell the old lady, nor my wife. But now you tell me so clearly, remind me I, I dare. Sister Lin, I will ask the old lady tomorrow to ask her to marry you to me! Do you agree?"

Daiyu was stunned when she heard this, and hurriedly said: "Baoyu, I know that you were kind to me, and I will always keep it in my heart. But now that we have grown up, I also want to understand that we will never Appropriate, but also impossible. Baoyu, let me tell you now, my Uncle Lin in Gusu will come to see me and pick me up after the Chinese New Year. My father once told me that my Uncle Lin will help me arrange my affairs in the future. As for your marriage, the old lady and uncles and aunts will naturally arrange it for you."

Baoyu heard this and said in surprise, "Sister Lin, you said you were going back to Gusu after the Chinese New Year? Why do you still have Uncle Lin? Didn't the old lady say that all the members of your Lin family were dead and no one would come to pick you up again? Why is Uncle Lin coming to pick you up? Are you lying to me on purpose?"

When Daiyu heard this, her complexion changed immediately, and she said angrily, "Baoyu, I misjudged you! You said that everyone in my Lin family is dead, so what do you say to me? You don't know my surname is Lin? Don't you know that I'm from the Lin family in Gusu? Listen, you're my cousin, and your family is from a big family, Ding Xingwang. When someone from my hometown in Gusu comes to pick me up after the new year, if I still live here, My surname is not Lin!"

After Daiyu finished speaking, she turned angrily and was about to leave.Seeing that Daiyu was really angry, Baoyu stepped forward to stop her and said, "Sister Lin, I'm sorry, I'm going to hurry up. That's what the old lady said that day. I'm just turning her words around. I don't mean you sincerely, let alone say you sincerely." There is no one in the Lin family. I just want to tell you that I really want to marry you!"

Daiyu stopped, looked at Baoyu, and said with a sneer: "Yes, I know that now that Brother Bao is getting older, he always wants to have more gentleness and more people to serve him. What Brother Bao really wants is , in the near future, there will be not only the musk moon with autumn patterns, but also the beautiful sister Bao, and Yinger, preferably me, and Zicuckoo. I hope they will stay in your Yihong Courtyard to accompany you for the rest of your life, don't you?"

Hearing Daiyu's words, Baoyu didn't think that Daiyu was mocking her. Instead, she turned anxious and said happily: "So my sister knows? Then let me tell you, Sister Lin, no matter how many people there are in my Yihong Courtyard in the future, Sister Lin, you Always in front of them, even sister Bao! As I said, in my heart, besides the old lady, wife and master, the fourth is you, my sister. After we get married, we will be together every day. You like sweeping flowers and burying flowers , I will accompany you; if you like to write poems and play chess, I will accompany you; if you want to go back to Gusu, I will accompany you too!"

After hearing this, Daiyu said coldly: "Baoyu, I will tell you today that I will not marry you. Please be more self-respectful in the future, and don't talk about me often, and please stop talking about me in front of others." Talk about the past! I respect you now because you are my cousin. You have always been good to me, and I will always remember your kindness. We are cousins, and that’s all in the future. If No matter how abrupt you are, I'm afraid our cousins ​​can't do it!"

When Baoyu heard this, he was like thunder, and said with some disbelief: "Sister Lin, you don't want to? Why don't you want to? Isn't this the most worrying thing for you? If you snub you because I go to school, I will definitely change it in the future, and I promise that I will come to see you when I come back from school. Don't worry, sister, I will definitely let you live a good life!"

After Baoyu finished speaking, he stretched out his hand to pull Daiyu again.

Daiyu hurriedly took a step back, and said seriously: "Baoyu, if you continue like this, we will lose our relationship as cousins. I will do what I say!"

Baoyu hurriedly put down his hands in embarrassment, and said with tears: "Sister Lin, I don't believe you have become so cold now! Do you really want to forget all the affection we had when we were young? The tacit understanding when sweeping the petals? You have to forget the true feelings of us watching "Hui Zhen Ji" together on the rocks? Back then, I asked Qingwen to give you an old handkerchief, and you wrote your sadness on the handkerchief. Sister Lin, You tell me! Have you really forgotten all this? I don't believe it, these things are all my own passion!"
