Evening Shaohua in the Red House

Jia Lian was surprised when she heard this and said, "Sister Lin got engaged last year, don't you all know?"

Sister Feng shook her head and said, "Even the old ladies and wives don't know, how would we know."

Jia Lian now understood. At first he thought that Lin Ruhai had written to inform Jia Mu, but unexpectedly, he didn't even hear the news. Thinking about Lin Ruhai's teachings, he sighed secretly. It seems that Uncle Lin is determined to stay away In the house.

Ping'er asked curiously, "I don't know which house Miss Lin chose?"

Jia Lian sighed and said, "It's the third son of the Gu family, the grandson of Mr. Gu Yan Gu."

Sister Feng and Ping'er were both startled. Gu Yan came from a century-old family, and he himself is a great scholar in the literary world. Even they had heard of his reputation in the inner house. Sister Feng said: "I heard that Mr. Gu's mother is the daughter of the late emperor. Compatriots with the mother of the Supreme Emperor and the aunt of the current Emperor, the third son of the Gu family also has the blood of the royal family, and his background is excellent, so he must be an extraordinary talent."

Jia Lian nodded and said, "Naturally, Mr. Gu San has a very good appearance, better than Baoyu. What's more rare is that he has both civil and military skills. He was selected as a scholar at a young age. He is still a junior. Otherwise, in Uncle Lin's eyes I will not choose this son-in-law."

After hearing this, Ping'er couldn't help sighing: "This is indeed a good relationship for Miss Lin, but the old lady's thoughts may be in vain."

Sister Feng also felt it was a pity, and said: "Sister Lin is now the daughter of Shangqie in Shoushanbo's house, and she is the empress's niece, and Uncle Lin has only one girl. Our family can't enjoy the benefits."

The Lin family has been passed down for several generations, and the family property accumulated over a hundred years is at least two or three million. Lin Ruhai has no children and loves her daughter. Once Daiyu leaves the court, most of the family property will definitely be used as a dowry. It is a pity that Daiyu has agreed to the Gu family. Such a piece of fat The meat fell into other people's bowls, and Sister Feng couldn't help feeling heartbroken.

Jia Lian sneered when she heard the words, and said, "Everyone knows what the old lady is thinking. It's just that the wife always refused to let go. Now that sister Lin is engaged, it's useless to regret it. The wife always regards Baoyu as a treasure, and she is so defensive. Yes, but I don’t know that Uncle Lin doesn’t like it at all.”

Sister Feng and Ping'er looked at each other and remained silent for a while. Mrs. Wang and Mother Jia fought wits and courage over Shuangyu's marriage, and Mrs. Wang also disliked Daiyu because of this matter. Satire.

Because of this, Sister Feng tossed and turned, and did not sleep all night.

Had a good sleep.

The next day, Sister Feng invited Mrs. Wang to greet her, and came to Jiamu's room again. She wanted to take time to tell Daiyu about her, but she couldn't find the time. Telling Jiamu about Daiyu's engagement, Baoyu got into trouble, and Daiyu didn't look good, so it's better to say it slowly, so he covered up his thoughts, talked and laughed with Jiamu for a long time, and then found a reason to come to Daoxiang Village.

When I came to Daoxiang Village, I saw a few little girls twirling flower ropes under the corridor, and Suyun and Biyue were doing needlework outside. Seeing Sister Feng, she hurriedly got up to salute, and said with a smile: "Second Grandma is here."

Sister Feng looked at the needlework for a while, then Fang smiled and said, "What is your grandma doing now?"

Suyun heard the words and said with a smile: "Grandma is reading a book at the moment. I just said that I would go to see grandma later, but grandma just came." As she said this, she opened the curtain.

When Sister Feng came to the Nuan Pavilion in the inner room, she saw Li Wan wearing a white silk flowered jacket, with sandalwood hairpins tied loosely in her hair, sitting on a smoker cage reading a book, and there were some dishes of snacks and melons on the table next to her, she couldn't help laughing. Said: "It's so comfortable, I count it."

Li Wan was leaning on the couch and flipping through Du Gongbu's collection of poems. Seeing Sister Feng coming in, he put down the book and stood up to give up his seat. He said with a smile, "Why are you here? I'm bored. It's so cold outside, so I'm stuck inside the house." Read a book for a while." As he spoke, he ordered the girl to serve tea.

Sister Feng took off her cloak and handed it to the girl who was following her, and said, "I'm just bored, I want to go out and take a break, and talk to you."

While speaking, Wutong moved the chair over, moved it to the side of the smoker cage, and spread the squirrel chair with blue satin and flowers, and then asked Sister Feng to sit down.

Li Wan said: "Come and sit here, it's warmer."

Sister Feng waved her hands and said with a smile: "I just came in from the outside. I'm covered with cold air. Don't freeze you. Besides, there's a brazier on the ground, so it's not cold."

Li Wan had no choice but to order someone to fetch a big copper foot stove.

Biyue served tea herself again, and brought tea fruits.

Li Wan smiled at Sister Feng and said, "Just now Suyun made a lot of Western desserts, among which there are a few that smell strange. You should try them too." Then he picked a piece of lotus-shaped cake for Sister Feng with his own hands.

Sister Feng looked at it carefully for a while, and said with a smile: "It's really made like a lotus flower blooming in a pond, and people are reluctant to eat it."

After finishing speaking, he took a sip, and it was really delicious. He finished one without knowing it, and praised: "This cake is so novel, it has the fragrance of lotus leaves, it tastes very sweet, and it doesn't make your mouth greasy. .”

Seeing that Sister Feng liked it, Li Wan smiled and said, "This lotus milk

The cake was just trying to make it, and I gave some to the old lady and the wife to try it out, and they all agreed.Now that you like it too, I will ask Suyun to make more and bring it back for my eldest sister to taste. "

After finishing speaking, I asked Suyun to come over and give instructions, and then said: "After a while, you can pick some snacks and put them in a holding box, and send them to Master Bao and a few girls. Just say they are just made snacks, please." Second Master and the girls have a try."

Suyun agreed, took care of the food according to her words, and sent people to send it separately.

After eating some dim sum, Sister Feng used copper chopsticks to poke the broken red charcoal in the hand stove, and sighed: "I'm here today, actually I have something to ask you for advice."

Li Wan was startled and said, "What's the matter?"

Sister Feng then told about Daiyu and said, "I think my sister-in-law knows about it, but I don't have an idea what the old lady should say. What can my sister-in-law do?"

Li Wan was also a little surprised when he heard the words. He didn't expect that everyone in Rongfu didn't know about Daiyu's engagement now, so he hurriedly said: "I thought Brother Lian had written to the old lady before, so I didn't mention it. have no idea?"

Sister Feng sighed and said: "Don't mention it soon, the second master is also muddleheaded, he only thinks that Uncle Lin has informed the old lady, sister-in-law, you think we already know, I didn't know about this mistake until yesterday."

Li Wan pondered for a moment, then said: "We have to find a good time to tell the old lady slowly, preferably when Baoyu is not around."

Jia's mother is old and can't stand stimulation, and Baoyu is born with an idiot. If she suddenly finds out that Daiyu is engaged, what will happen?

Sister Feng nodded and said: "I also have the same idea. Since this is the case, let's pay more attention and find a suitable time to talk about it."

The two talked for a while, and they didn't realize that it was lunch time, so they took each other to Jiamu's room.

At this time, all the sisters of Daiyu Baochai have arrived, but Baoyu has not yet returned to the mansion after being invited by the King of Beijing.

After lunch, Sister Feng and others accompanied Jia Mu to wipe the dominoes. After a while, Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue also came to chat and laugh with Jia Mu to relieve their boredom.

I was talking, and suddenly I heard a message from the girl, saying that it was my aunt who sent me.

Everyone was very puzzled, Sister Feng said with a smile: "Sister Lin has only stayed at our house for a day, so Uncle Lin is worried and will send someone here now."

Jia Mu was also a little puzzled, so she hurriedly ordered people to come in.

Not long after, I saw the two daughters-in-law of the Lin family coming in. First, I greeted Jiamu and others, and then greeted Daiyu, and said hurriedly: "Master sent us to sue

Tell the girl that the empress has a reward, and Zi Yi's decree has already arrived at the mansion, so please go back quickly to receive the decree. "

The voice fell, and the whole room was shocked.

Jia Mu suddenly sat up, and hurriedly said to Daiyu: "This is a big event. The mother's order must not be neglected. Yu'er go back quickly!"

Daiyu was puzzled, but she didn't have time to elaborate at this time. She accused Jiamu and others, and hurried back to the mansion.

Mother Jia and the others were in fear, fearing that something might happen, Li Wan hurriedly said: "Old lady, don't worry, Sister Lin is now the lady of Shoushan Bo's mansion, and she is also the niece of the empress. Not a bad thing."

Mother Jia felt relieved when she heard the words, and said with a smile, "I'm confused too, and I forgot about it."

It's just that he was a little worried, so he called Lin Zhixiao to the Lin Mansion to inquire about the news.

Everyone had different thoughts at this time, and they had no intention of joking, and they all anxiously waited for Lin Zhixiao's news.

After waiting for more than half an hour, I saw Lin Zhixiao's family rushing in, and replied with joy on my face: "The old lady is overjoyed, just now the queen empress ordered to reward Miss Lin for her chastity and virtuousness, serving her father with utmost filial piety, and being a model boudoir. Things, and gave two old mothers in the palace!"

Everyone was surprised and delighted when they heard the words, and Qi Qi congratulated Jia Mu: "This is a great grace, Miss Lin is very lucky."

Mother Jia was very happy. Daiyu lost her mother since she was a child, and without the guidance of her aunt, she was somewhat lacking in marriage. Now that she has the Queen's decree, no matter who she is, she should respect her a little bit, but she was a little puzzled, and said: " It’s all about rewards, why did the empress suddenly give two nuns to Yu’er?”

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay when they heard the words, and they were also full of suspicion.

Seeing this, Li Wan looked at Sister Feng and knew it was a good time. After thinking about it for a moment, Fang smiled and said, "This is the idea of ​​cousin Yan's family. Sister Lin has already engaged, and she will leave the cabinet in two years. She also needs a few reliable people to help her around, so she was worried about being a godmother, so she asked the empress for a favor and asked for two experienced nuns."

Everyone was startled when they heard this. Mother Jia frowned and looked at Li Wan, and said, "Daughter-in-law Zhu, are you confused? When did your sister Lin get married?"

Li Wan glanced at the people with different expressions in the room, and said: "Don't the old lady know yet? Sister Lin has already promised the third son of the Gu family, and she was engaged last year."

Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words, and Mother Jia's complexion changed drastically.

Aunt Xue wondered: "When did this happen? Why didn't Miss Lin mention it?"

Sister Feng's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile: "Auntie's words are wrong, Lin

The younger sister is from a girl's family, so it's easy to mention this matter, I only found out after hearing the second master talk about it yesterday. "

Aunt Xue laughed quickly and said, "I was confused. I was just overjoyed when I heard the good news for a while." Then she asked Li Wan which family the Daiyu had chosen.

Li Wan then explained the origins of Gu Zhan's identity one by one, and said: "Mr. Gu was selected as a scholar last year. It just so happens that next year will be Qiu Wei. This time, he will return to Beijing together."

At that time, sisters Yingchun and others were all there, and even though they were surprised, they were also happy for Daiyu.

Baochai's thoughts are ups and downs, Gu Zhan has achieved fame at a young age, the Gu family has the rule of forty to have no children before concubines, Daiyu has no parents-in-law, and no aunts-in-law, the only two sisters-in-law are far away with her husband , or in the next room, it can be said that Daiyu will marry into the Gu family in the future and she will be the master of the house, which is really enviable.

Tanchun was even more envious that Daiyu was the same age as him, and had already made such a good marriage, but his life was still uncertain.

Mother Jia's complexion was gloomy, and she was both angry and sad. What was angry was that Lin Ruhai had arranged a marriage for Daiyu privately, but she didn't even know about her. What was sad was that she was only planning for the two jade children, but Mrs. Wang didn't want to. Let go, she, as a grandmother, is separated by a layer, and she can't force Baoyu and Daiyu to be engaged. She thought that this time Daiyu returned to Beijing, and she became the lady of Shoushanbo's house again. I thought Mrs. Wang would not like Daiyu again. It's time for Yu to let go, and after a while, he will discuss the matter with Jia Zheng. He never expected that the Gu family would intervene and be the first to marry Daiyu. marriage is no longer possible.

Thinking of this, Jia's mother's complexion suddenly turned gray, and she said with tears: "Yu'er's marriage is settled, but I, as a grandmother, don't know at all, and my aunt is too guarded against us." Pointing to Li Wanfeng again, she said : "You all knew about it a long time ago, and you all kept it from me!"

Li Wan and Sister Feng looked at each other, and they smiled wryly. Knowing that Jia Mu was extremely angry, they hurried forward to comfort him: "Uncle Lin was seriously ill last year, and his condition fluctuated from good to bad, and Gusu is thousands of miles away from the capital. Communication is inconvenient, and there is some negligence for a while, and it is not intentional to hide it from the old lady."

Sister Feng also hurriedly said: "I know that the ancestors are reluctant to part with Sister Lin, but the girl will leave the court sooner or later when she grows up. The third son of the Gu family comes from a family, both civil and military, and was selected as a scholar at a young age. It's a perfect match, the ancestor should be happy to have such a grandson-in-law."

Mother Jia was silent when she heard the words, and no matter how partial she was to Baoyu, she couldn't speak against her conscience to say that this marriage was not good.

The Gu family has been an aristocratic family since the previous dynasty, and it was handed down to this dynasty and even promoted the princess. Although something bad happened in the early years, Gu Yan's lineage was not damaged, and he himself was a great scholar in the dynasty with countless disciples.

In terms of family background, the Jia family is far less noble than the Gu family, and Baoyu is just the son of a fifth-rank servant, who only likes to hang out in the inner room, but the third son Gu has already made a name for himself, he is the queen of the eldest princess, has royal blood, and his grandfather is Great Confucianism, Baoyu can't compare to everything, no wonder Lin Ruhai would agree to this marriage.

After all, Mother Jia is a person who has weathered the storm, but she has thought clearly about the pros and cons in a moment. It is useless to be unwilling to do so. It is better to take this opportunity to make friends with the Gu family and have an additional family of relatives in the future.

Besides, Daiyu is her direct relative's granddaughter after all, and now that she has got a good marriage, she should also be happy for Daiyu.

Thinking of this, Mother Jia's anger also dissipated most of her anger. She wiped her tears and forced a smile and said, "What Feng girl said is that your sister Lin got a good marriage. Don't be stingy about adding makeup when you leave the pavilion."

Sister Feng hurriedly smiled and said: "Don't worry, old lady, I will definitely add makeup when the time comes."

Mrs. Xing also hurriedly smiled and said: "This is a good thing for my niece. At that time, we will be aunts to add makeup." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Mrs. Wang, and said with a half-smile: "My niece is lucky. It's a good marriage, and the second wife can rest assured."

Since the imperial concubine visited her relatives, the mansion flattered Mrs. Wang more and more, but no one cared about her serious wife, even her daughter-in-law turned to the second wife, and she was already dissatisfied. Naturally, she was eager to see Mrs. Wang's jokes.

Mrs. Wang's face is red and white. Since Daiyu came back to the mansion, she has strictly guarded against Baoyu these days and forbade Baoyu to get close to Daiyu. Suspected of being sentimental, at this time Madam Xing's implication was heard, and her face was even more embarrassing, but after all, she has been the head of the house for more than 20 years. It doesn't make sense, the eldest girl has a good family, and I am naturally happy as an aunt."

Jia's mother was already in a depressed mood, but when she saw that the two were still chattering, she became more and more unhappy, her face darkened, and she said, "Okay, Yu'er has got a good marriage, we are all happy for her, but we just kept it secret beforehand." Come on, Baoyu, they have a good brother and sister relationship, and Baoyu is a little dull, and then there will be trouble again."

Mrs. Wang's heart trembled when she heard the words, and she quickly agreed.

Not long after, everyone in the whole family knew about Daiyu's engagement, and there was a lot of discussion for a while. Xiren was overjoyed when he learned about it, and hurriedly asked everyone in Yihong Court to keep their mouths shut and not to disclose the news to Baoyu.

It's just that there is no impenetrable wall in the world. Several women in the garden were discussing this matter today, and it happened that Baoyu listened to it seriously.
