Lin Jue of the Red Chamber

Nanny Sheng shook her head: "It seems that the uncle hasn't told you about these things?"

Daiyu shook her head shyly, no matter how cruel her brother was, he wouldn't teach Zhai Dou hand in hand!

Nanny Sheng smiled mysteriously: "Come here, girl, wash your face first. Then let mommy come and tell the girl."

Daiyu obediently washed her face with the help of Nanny Sheng.

After the two of them sat down, Nanny Sheng said, "Miss, do you know why Miss Xue and Miss Smith don't like Miss?"

Daiyu blushed and was a little shy. Although she always felt that it was because her conditions were better than both of them, she hadn't said so herself yet.

Nanny Sheng said: "Looking at the girl's appearance, you should understand. It doesn't matter that both of them have inferior family backgrounds to yours. If it's just like this, they will not only not exclude you, but will even win you over. The important thing is—— "

Daiyu stared at Nanny Sheng with wide eyes.Nanny Sheng asked seriously: "Girl, do you still remember why we went to Beijing?"

Daiyu nodded: "I remember, my grandmother said that she missed me and feared that I would be left alone at home, so I came here."

Nanny Sheng shook her head: "Miss, I don't know, before you came, the ancestor wrote to the Lin family more than once, asking the master to promise you to the second master Bao."

Daiyu covered her mouth in surprise: "How? I don't know."

"How can I tell you this kind of thing, a girl who hasn't left the court. Everyone knows it well." Sheng Nanny patted Daiyu's hand: "If you want me to say, the old ancestor's heart is too big, and while letting the master Sending you to Beijing, while Xu Xue's family lives in the mansion, and picks up girls from the Shi family from time to time, I really regard Second Master Bao as a sweet pastry."

Daiyu finally understood what her grandmother meant, and said angrily: "Who says I'm going to marry Baoyu? Not only does he not like reading, but he is also not proficient in general affairs. He just plays with his sisters and makes some rouge every day. How can I marry her?" Can you marry him?"

Sheng Sheng smiled: "It's good that the girl can see these things, but the most important thing is that the family background is not compatible. The girl's family has a second-rank father and brother Xie Yuan, and it will definitely be better in the future than it is now," said here , couldn't help snorting: "As for Jia's mansion, it's just that the gold and jade are ruined, and the precious second master Bao, his father is a fifth-rank official. Now he lives in Rongguo Mansion. What's wrong with the old ancestor? , didn’t you just move out obediently. Besides, where is Rongguo Mansion now, it should have been changed to Yipin General’s Mansion long ago, just for the sake of being nice.”

Daiyu had never thought about these things. When Nanny Sheng said it, she suddenly became enlightened, and she couldn't believe it: "Didn't my grandmother always love me? Why does she still want me to marry Baoyu? ?”

Nanny Sheng shook her head: "This, you need to think about it yourself, the girl will definitely figure it out."

Daiyu sniffled, feeling like crying again.Even if they don't get married, the Lin family will help the Jia family. How can they lose their happiness just like this?She is the granddaughter of the ancestor's direct relative, but in the eyes of the ancestor, she is just a tool.

Nanny Sheng embraced the aggrieved Daiyu who was crying: "My good girl, neither the master nor the uncle will agree, so you can rest assured."

Daiyu closed her eyes and nodded, feeling that what happened today was like a dream, she couldn't believe it, and even vaguely understood what Jia Mu was thinking, she was just deceiving herself and others.

After listening to Nanny Sheng's narration, Lin Jue patted Daiyu in her arms: "It's my brother's fault, and Yu'er has been wronged."

Daiyu raised her head and wiped the tears from her face: "Don't blame brother, it's Daiyu's mistake." After speaking, the tears couldn't help but flowed out again, Daiyu sobbed: "Brother, Yu'er feels bad. .That is my real grandmother, how could she treat me like this?"

Lin Jue put Daiyu on the bed, ordered Nanny Sheng to cook Daiyu's soothing soup, and took a wet handkerchief to apply to Daiyu's eyes: "Don't cry, if you cry, brother's heart will break Yes. Drink a cup of calming soup first, sleep for a while, when you wake up, the matter will be resolved."

Daiyu sobbed twice, and obediently closed her eyes under Lin Jue's gaze.

After a long time, hearing the sound of Lin Jue leaving, Daiyu couldn't help biting the quilt, letting her tears flow silently.

As soon as Lin Jue went out, her expression became gloomy.I thought I would leave soon, but someone was really shameless.After ordering the servant girls to take good care of Daiyu, Lin Jue went straight to Jiamu's yard.

When Jia's mother heard Lin Jue coming, she raised her eyebrows in surprise. Lin Jue only came to pay his respects on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, and did not come over the rest of the time.At this time, he smiled at the mandarin duck: "Go and meet our Lord Xie Yuan. He is used to going to the Three Treasures Palace for nothing."

Lin Jue entered the door and bowed deeply.Jia Mu smiled: "Come here and let me see, we are all one family, but you are more polite."

Lin Jue straightened up and sat down without moving.Mother Jia was a little surprised: "What's the matter? Can't you be wronged? Tell me quickly."

Lin Jue pursed her lips: "The old ancestor's words are wrong. I am not the one who was wronged, but Yu'er."

Jia's mother blinked: "You can tell me what wronged Yu'er can suffer?"

"I don't know if the ancestors know that Yu'er had a quarrel with Miss Xue and Miss Smith in this yard today?" Lin Jue raised his eyebrows, and asked directly without bothering to laugh.

"Hehe, you also said it was a quarrel. Children, there is no one who doesn't quarrel. It will be over in two days." Jia Mu laughed, obviously not taking it seriously.

Lin Jue recalled that Daiyu and Baoyu had an awkward dispute in the red building, and she was even more dissatisfied with what Jia's mother asked about herself.

Lin Jue sat up straight and said, "My ancestors don't know. If I made a joke, I wouldn't come here because of it, but according to Daiyu, this is no longer a joke. Miss Shi Jia questioned our Lin family's status." It's a family style."

Jia Mu rubbed her brows: "Did you say that, or Daiyu?"

"No matter who said it, it always happened. Moreover, it has been several hours since the incident happened, and the Shijia girl has not admitted her mistake and repented. I beg my ancestors to give me an explanation." Lin Jue knelt down directly.

There was silence in the room, and even the ignorant little maid was too frightened by such a solemn atmosphere to dare to speak out.

After a long while, Mother Jia ordered, "Yuanyang, quickly pull up Mr. Lin." Lin Jue glared at Yuanyang, and Yuanyang couldn't help but take a step back, looking at Mother Jia hesitantly.

Mother Jia felt that her head was swollen and painful. Instead of rubbing her brows, she began to pinch her temples: "I will send someone to send Shi Yatou back. Even if this matter is over, no one is allowed to mention it again." After finishing speaking, He called Yuanyang directly and asked Yuanyang to take her back to her room.

Lin Jue stood up silently, patted the dirt on her knees, and when she passed by a little maid in a green coat on the way out, she said in a low voice, "I don't know how sad Smith is when she finds out that the old ancestor wants to send her back. "

The little girl didn't say a word, just nodded slightly and saluted.

Lin Jue went back to the yard, patted his head, drank some wine at noon, and was really in pain, so he asked Guanqi to bring hangover soup, drank a cup, and sent a letter to Princess Yan, Just say that Daiyu is not feeling well, please ask Princess Yan to come and see Daiyu tomorrow.He also ordered the servants to keep an eye on the door, and stop anyone who came first, and then stopped.

On this day, just after Daiyu and Lin Jue had breakfast, someone came to report that Princess Yan had come.

The two hurriedly ordered someone to come up, Princess Yan was one year older than Daiyu, and she was already a cardamom girl at this time, but she had only known Lin Jue for two years, and she had always admired Lin Jue's temperament, so the two did not see each other .

Daiyu and Lin Jue bowed to each other and bowed to each other. Princess Yan quickly held Daiyu's hand, and said to Lin Jue, "I'm the one who interrupted you, why are you so polite?"

The two smiled.

The three of them sat down, and Princess Yan carefully looked at Daiyu's expression. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, she shook her handkerchief, squinted and asked Lin Jue: "Yesterday evening, she sent me a message saying that Daiyu was in a bad mood, but I don't think so. Come on, it's not bad, Mr. Lin won't explain?"

Lin Jue smiled wryly: "Originally it was a child's matter, so I shouldn't bother the princess, but now I really have to worry about the princess, so I have to talk about it."

Daiyu looked at Lin Jue and then at Princess Yan. She really didn't know what happened when she didn't see it.

Lin Jue straightened her back: "Princess Lord, let me tell you that the Rongguo Mansion where Daiyu and I live belongs to my mother's family. There are many girls in Rongguo Mansion, and my father sent us brothers and sisters to Beijing. The old ancestor misses Daiyu, and wants Daiyu to serve here for a while. By the way, let Daiyu learn about Lijia."

"Okay, it's good to just talk about the business, I don't know about it." Princess Yan interrupted Lin Jue's words impatiently, and joked: "Because of this, I have to go the wrong way when I enter the Rongguo Mansion. But it’s the first time in history.”

Lin Jue smiled wryly: "Does Princess Yan know that not only our brother and sister live in this mansion, but also the family of the second wife's natal sister, a girl who is two years older than Daiyu, and the ancestor's niece and granddaughter? "

Princess Yan tilted her head and smiled at Daiyu: "My good sister, there are quite a lot of relatives living in this house."

Daiyu spread her hands helplessly: "My brother and I are both living here as sojourners, what can we do?"

Princess Yan has also understood a lot of things in the past two years. Although she is still reckless, she already knows how to use her brain. At this moment, she said directly: "I can guess what happened. Let's see mine." Then he asked Daiyu: "Yu'er, tell me, are we going to fight or something?"

Daiyu was so frightened that she quickly stopped Princess Yan: "Sister Princess, don't be impulsive," she said, looking at Lin Jue: "Brother, isn't this already over? I heard from Xueyan that the old ancestor has already agreed Let Xiangyun move away."

Lin Jue smiled wryly: "I still have class, so I'm leaving first." Then he bowed to Princess Yan: "Today I have to trouble Princess Yan to look at Daiyu."

This time, Princess Yan sat firmly in the upper seat and accepted the gift: "Leave it all to me, with me here, Daiyu can't stand being wronged."

Daiyu went out to see Lin Jue off, but she was still a little confused when she came back. Looking at Princess Yan who was looking at the house, she happily stepped forward and took Princess Yan's hand: "Sister Yan, go to my room."

Princess Yan nodded Daiyu's head: "I'm here as a guest, everything is up to you."

The two little girls were lying on the bed, and Daiyu flipped through the book boredly: "Sister Yan, I still don't understand, what's wrong?"

Princess Yan sighed, and patted Daiyu's hand like an adult: "Fortunately, you are an only daughter, otherwise, you wouldn't let the other sisters eat it."

Daiyu leaned over resolutely: "Sister Yan just made fun of me. How am I worse than others? They eat me? They have that ability."

Princess Yan smiled: "If you really haven't been wronged, Mr. Lin will ask me to support you? Aren't you afraid that you will be wronged?" As he said, he took Daiyu's hand: "What happened yesterday? What, tell your sister?"

Daiyu felt aggrieved and panicked when she was bored with this matter. At this time, a friend who had a good time asked her, her tone was very gentle, and she couldn't help it, so she told the truth.But I also know that it is difficult for Jia Mu to say that she is Baoyu's spare tire, so she skips it and just talks about her bickering with Miss Smith and Miss Xue.

Princess Yan didn't wait to finish listening, and glared at her: "Two shabby households, is this the rhythm of looking for trouble?" Then Daiyu said: "You are really good-natured, and you don't even have to touch your hands when you encounter this kind of thing. Let the servant girls beat them down and see what they can do? Once is not enough, twice, they can always be subdued. Fortunately, there is Mr. Lin, otherwise you will suffer from being dumb for nothing, right?"

Daiyu couldn't help laughing when she heard what Princess Yan said was funny.He said again: "They are all relatives, what can I do? Although my brother has repeatedly said that I don't have to bear it, how can people not bow their heads under the eaves?"

Princess Yan shook her head hating iron and steel, and began to teach the secrets of doing things.

Here is the gentle wind and the rising sun, while the other side is cold and desolate.

Shi Xiangyun sat on the bed in a daze, letting the little girl pack up her things, while Baochai sat next to her: "Okay, don't be sad, the ancestors will bring you back in a few days, now I just let you go home for a few days God."

Shi Xiangyun shook his head, gritted his teeth and said, "I'm angry with Sister Lin. By the way, I can't be called Sister Lin anymore. She is the daughter of a high official. As for me, I'm just an orphan girl with no father or mother. How can I be worthy of her?" What about sisters?"

Baoyu walked back and forth impatiently, and when she heard what Shi Xiangyun said, she rushed out: "I'll go find Sister Lin, and I'll tell her to ask her ancestor not to let you go."

Tanchun calmly grabbed Baoyu: "What are you talking about? What is there to say? If it's just like this, I would have left long ago, why wait until now?"

Baoyu sighed: "They're all sisters. We just talked a little bit and said no to each other. If you make such a fuss, isn't it just that you've never seen each other?" Brother Lin went to look for the old ancestor, right?"

Yuanyang nodded and looked at the girls and young masters in the room: "The old ancestor asked me to deliver these pieces of satin. After they are delivered, I should go back too." Then he saluted Shi Xiangyun: "The house is busy, and I don't have time to come Send the girl off, and hope the girl has a good journey." After finishing speaking, he went out.Seeing Lin Jue's majestic side yesterday, Yuanyang couldn't help but want to stay away from Smith.

But Baoyu laughed happily as if he had eaten honey, and said to Xiangyun: "I said that sister Lin is not the one who cares about it. This must be brother Lin's own opinion. Let's go to sister Lin, and sister Lin will definitely help persuade me Grandfather's."

Baochai also laughed: "Since that's the case, let's go there together, and I will have a quarrel with Sister Lin too."

Yingchun frowned slightly, didn't she say she was here to see Miss Smith off?How did it become like this?Yingchun bit her lip, held Xichun's hand, and boldly said: "Xichun and I will not go there, my wife's birthday is coming, I want to make a fan for my wife, and I want Xichun to help paint landscapes."

Shi Xiangyun nodded indifferently, and let Baoyu lead him towards Lixiangyuan.

"Miss Smith, Miss Xue, Miss San and Master Bao are here." Zisu came in to report.

Princess Yan got off the bed, ordered the servant girl to tidy herself up, and then pulled Daiyu over, showing an invincible expression, before ordering slowly: "Welcome in." Squeezing Daiyu's hand: "Look at it, Learn more later."

Baoyu rushed in first, without looking at Princess Yan who was sitting in the upper seat, and directly said to Daiyu: "Sister Lin, go and beg your ancestors quickly, and ask the ancestors not to let Sister Shi go."

Daiyu held back her anger and said, "Brother Bao, what are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"

Shi Xiangyun, Xue Baochai and Tanchun also came in. Hearing this, Shi Xiangyun was going to be angry. Thinking about what Xue Baochai said to him on the way, he saluted hastily: "I made a mistake yesterday, and I hope my sister will forgive me."

At this moment, Baochai saw Princess Yan, and thought of the maids standing outside, who seemed much more respectable than the maids in Rongguo Mansion.A little puzzled, he stepped back cautiously and did not speak.Tanchun saw that he wanted to step forward to see Baochai's actions, and then retreated.

"Hey, this is also called an apology. I have gained a lot of experience." Before Daiyu could speak, Princess Yan answered directly, and then looked at Shi Xiangyun carefully: "Who is this?"

Daiyu wanted to stand up, but she was pulled by Princess Yan so hard that she couldn't get up, so she sat down and introduced one by one: "Sister Yan, this is the third sister, this is Sister Bao, this is the girl from the Shijia, this It's the second cousin."

Princess Yan raised her eyebrows and smiled: "The rules of the Rongguo Mansion are really good, this foreigner can enter the house directly." Then, he ordered the maidservants he brought: "Shut his mouth and pull him down for me." , I will go and talk to this old lady about it in a while."

As soon as the words were finished, two servant girls came out and took Baoyu down. It happened so quickly that everyone else was at a loss.But Baochai hurriedly lowered her head, afraid of being forked out like this.Princess Yan looked at Shi Xiangyun, who had a pale face, and said slowly: "What? Miss Smith is not polite?"

Shi Xiangyun was a little shaky and didn't respond.After all, she was born in the Hou's Mansion, and at this moment she also realized that she had kicked the iron plate. This was because she looked at Daiyu who was sitting firmly, and couldn't help but feel a sense of strife.

Baochai and Tanchun hurriedly saluted, but they didn't know who Princess Yan was, so they didn't make a sound.Dudu Shi Xiangyun stood at the front, not knowing that Baochai and Tanchun had already saluted, so she just stood there blankly.

Princess Yan held the teacup, smiled without saying a word, and only occasionally glanced at Xiangyun. Under such pressure, Shi Xiangyun finally couldn't bear it, and bowed his knees.Princess Yan put down her teacup, glanced at Shi Xiangyun casually, and said to Daiyu: "I told you a long time ago that people are good at being bullied, and horse good at being ridden by others, do you believe me now?"

After hearing this, Shi Xiangyun's face turned white instantly, and she blinked vigorously to hold back her tears.But the eyes couldn't help but shoot out the light of resentment.Princess Yan snorted disdainfully, but didn't cry out, allowing her to maintain a half-squatting position.

Daiyu couldn't bear it, after all, she was the sister who had been together for so long, she stretched out her hand to pull Princess Yan's sleeve, and looked at Princess Yan pleadingly.

Princess Yan just smiled slightly, patted Daiyu's hand comfortingly, and said to the maid beside him mockingly: "Quickly set an example for Miss Smith, you can't even salute?"

A servant girl came out from her side, she was the big servant girl brought by Princess Yan, she saluted steadily, and then commented: "Miss Smith's hand is too high, just put it by her side," and walked behind Shi Xiangyun , patted Xiangyun on the shoulder, and continued: "The center of gravity is too forward, it is not stable at all..."

Seeing Shi Xiangyun's humiliated expression, Princess Yan couldn't help laughing: "Don't look down on the maid next to me, she is a well-behaved person selected by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she is stronger than you but not weaker."

When Shi Xiangyun heard that he was being compared with a maid, he finally couldn't help it anymore, stood up straight and said, "I've been talking here for a long time, but I still don't know which god you are?"

Princess Yan's eyes flashed with success, only fried pheasants are fun, otherwise, it would be too boring.I thought she could really endure it all the time.

The servant girl standing on the side looked at Princess Yan and nodded, then directly raised her head and said: "My princess is the daughter of Prince Yong, and the one who has been conferred the title of Princess Yan by the Holy One will enjoy a first-rank salary. Miss Smith has no objection." ?”

Not only Shi Xiangyun was dumbfounded, but Baochai and Tanchun behind were also dumbfounded, but unlike Xiangyun's performance of wanting to hide themselves, Baochai and Tanchun stood up slowly, with their heads slightly lowered, showing their best , the most elegant side.

Daiyu couldn't help biting her lips tightly, feeling embarrassed, this is her relative, is she just so charming?

Princess Yan stood up, stretched out her hand to support the hairpin, stretched out her sleeves, and said to Daiyu with a smile: "What are you still doing in a daze? Take me to see the old ancestors, so many times, nothing It is my disrespect to have visited the ancestors."

Daiyu was a little hesitant. Sister Yan's reaction didn't look like she was going to visit, but like she was going to smash the shop!

Princess Yan curled her lips into a smile, leaned over to Daiyu's ear and said, "You don't believe me, don't you believe Mr. Lin? He definitely wants me to go through this."

Daiyu bit her lip and stood up with difficulty: "Alright then, let's go over together."

Princess Yan took the lead to go out, and said loudly: "These girls will also walk with me for a while." Then he ordered the two girls who tied up Baoyu: "Take Mr. Jia, I will be useful."

Wu Yaya was followed by more than a dozen maidservants, and Daiyu hadn't left the house, so she was a little tongue-tied: "Sister Yan, why did you bring so many people with you today?"

Princess Yan smiled: "It's rare that Mr. Lin invites me to the door. In order to save face for you, I will bring more people here."
