Red Mansions Are Floating Clouds

Failed crossing

In the past two days, Daiyu accompanied the eldest princess to go shopping in the garden. There were all kinds of chrysanthemums, and sometimes Ye Kexin would follow her, but Daiyu and the eldest princess had a lot of fun. Once the eldest princess looked at Ye Kexin's back and smiled at Daiyu: "Don't you think your role has been robbed?"

Daiyu smiled and said, "I like me more now." But the maids and mothers who followed behind couldn't understand a word.

On the day of the Chrysanthemum Banquet, Jinying Garden was heavily guarded, and all the ladies were allowed to enter after checking the posts. Each person was only allowed to bring one personal maid, and the rest waited in the private houses outside the garden.

Daiyu followed the eldest princess early in the morning. Most of the unmarried ladies who received the post were thirteen or fourteen years old. When they entered the garden, they came to meet the eldest princess first. Sitting down, all of them are surrounded by pearls and emeralds, dignified and luxurious, with their breasts on the chairs, they speak in a low voice, and when they laugh, they always cover their mouths with a handkerchief, as if they were carved out of a scratch, Daiyu is watching it interestingly One of the eldest princess' maidservants hurried over and said to the eldest princess: "The ladies of Jia's family have just arrived at the gate." Daiyu heard it just in time, and said with a smile: "I will go to meet them" and got up and went out.

Daiyu is wearing plain clothes today, but the jewelry she is wearing is all made of golden opals, which are eye-catching as they change with the pace and flickering light.

Niu Qianqian watched Daiyu walk in front of her with light and graceful steps, like a dance, with a peaceful and gentle expression, which has changed a lot since the last time they met. After leaving the Lin family, I hated Daiyu again. Today, Niu Qianqian didn't accompany her cousin as a foil, and her mediocre appearance was immediately drowned in the crowd, and Daiyu didn't even see her.

Daiyu picked up Baochai's five people on the way, Baochai walked in the front, Xiangyun was chatting with Baochai, the three Yingchun sisters just followed quietly

Daiyu went forward to meet her and said with a smile, "Sister Bao is really beautifully dressed today, like a fairy."

Baochai was talking to Xiangyun with her head lowered. When she heard the words, she raised her head and her smile froze on her face. Daiyu was wearing a plain dress, indifferent and elegant. Baochai, the maid of the princess, looked at Daiyu as if she was coming out to welcome guests from her master's family. She couldn't help but feel sour, and because she deliberately dressed up to overwhelm her, she didn't expect Daiyu to have no intention of fighting at all. , as if punching the cotton, he smiled indescribably, "We got up before five o'clock, and we're only here now. Sister Lin came so early, so she came out in the middle of the night, right?" Cover your mouth and smile

Tanchun frowned when he heard the words, Daiyu was also a little surprised, why did she feel that Baochai's fighting power was extraordinarily powerful today, and she didn't care about it, so she just smiled lightly: "Many people have come, and they are all talking with the eldest princess. Son, let's go too." Then he turned and walked forward.

No.30 The Second Merchant's Daughter

**************************************************

Tanchun took a few steps quickly, took Daiyu's hand and whispered with a smile: "You are not here this morning - Baoyu made a big joke, because we all came to the banquet, he also insisted on coming, and the old ancestor was rubbed by him." However, they joked that he would dress up as a girl and come with us, but in the end it was the young man in the outer courtyard who passed on the word that the master told him to calm down."

Daiyu saw that Tanchunte came to play Yuanchao and also appreciated her affection, and said with a smile: "There will be a veritable chrysanthemum feast later, and all the dim sum dishes are made of chrysanthemums. I think there will be [-]% of the chrysanthemums in this yard after today. going into our stomachs"

Tanchun has also eaten food made of chrysanthemums, but he has never seen so many varieties, so he said: "That will be an eye-opener."

When they arrived at the open hall, Baochai and others went up to meet the eldest princess. The eldest princess saw that the one in front had a fair face, a slightly fat body, and a restrained and dignified appearance. It was almost the same as what was written in the book, so he smiled and waved: "Come here and let me take a closer look."

Seeing the eldest princess waving to her, Baochai was so excited that she could hardly hold herself back, and reluctantly walked forward. None of the ladies in the open hall received this honor. This woman's face is even more gritted. Today, Xue Baochai is determined to win. She is already beautiful, but after she deliberately dresses up, she is even more glamorous, making people dare not look at her

The eldest princess looked at this 14-year-old girl, who was so beautiful. It felt a little strange to connect her with Xue Baochai in the book. She took her hand and smiled, "She is indeed a beauty, but she did not enter the palace. What a pity”

Out of the corner of Daiyu's eyes, she caught a glimpse of the Eldest Princess holding Baochai's hand and rubbing it, as if it felt good, smiling like a hooligan, she couldn't help the corners of her eyes twitching slightly

Everyone got the presents, only Xue Baochai got the gold-encrusted red jewel bracelet that the eldest princess took from her hand. Needless to say, everyone present was very interested in Baochai.

Facts have proved that the power of gossip is huge. Before the luncheon, all the information about Baochai's family background, relatives, official positions, etc. were revealed. unknown

All this was going on vigorously underground, but Xue Baochai was still immersed in the joy of victory. He never thought that the eldest princess would fall in love with him, touching the bracelet on her wrist, and Baochai was standing in a famous plant. Fen Kui is ecstatic in front of

Xiangyun followed Baochai, and was also happy that Baochai was appreciated by the eldest princess, but a few words accidentally fell into her ears, which made her frown. The girls around whispered and looked here from time to time With a few chuckles, Xiangyun was very unhappy, pulled Baochai and said, "Sister Bao, let's go and play with Sister Lin and the others."

Daiyu and Sanchun were admiring the chrysanthemums on the other side, Baochai glanced over there, the contempt flashed in his eyes, and said to Xiangyun: "Okay, let's go this way" and picked up a winding path

Baochai gradually noticed what the people around her were talking about, and she instinctively told her that this was not what she wanted to know, but it was not what she wanted, and a young lady expressed her surprise in a slightly louder voice: "...her brother Killed someone? My God!" Another said, "It's just a merchant's daughter."

Tianxing Baochai still had some rationality, pretended not to hear, and walked forward calmly, another person "sneered", with a sharp voice, "It really is the daughter of a merchant, she has a thick skin." A group of people laughed up

Xiangyun couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at them: "What are you talking about, if you have the ability to stand up and say it!"

The ladies glanced at her, and continued to talk and laugh at ease. Xiangyun's face was flushed, and Baochai was afraid that things would be bad for her, so she hurriedly persuaded Xiangyun, "Let's go over there to see the chrysanthemums" and dragged Xiangyun away.

Xiangyun Gua was angry, and said angrily, "How can these people do this?" Baochai forced a smile and said, "Maybe they are jealous that I got the princess's bracelet, so ignore them."

The eldest princess walked away after seeing all the ladies, and she didn't show up at the luncheon, but the maidservants of the princess were standing around, and every move of these ladies was faithfully reported up. The tails are all gentle and demure, but some of them can't help but show their true colors when they see the princess walking away. Baochai seems to hear the laughter of everyone wherever he goes, and finally comes to Daiyu in a hurry

Daiyu and Sanchun happened to meet the girl from Wang's family in Xi'an County whom they met last time. The older one was already engaged, and this time only the younger Mu Ruonan came to the banquet. hairy lion look

Everyone walked forward again, there were many famous chrysanthemums everywhere, many of them didn't have time to look at it, it was time for the banquet

Still in the open hall, several round tables were set up, and dozens of ladies sat down according to their own preferences. Naturally, Daiyu and the others sat together

The dishes of the chrysanthemum feast are all made of chrysanthemums. The cooks of Duke Dingguo's mansion are really extraordinary. They even made the two dishes that Daiyu casually talked about two days ago.

After the banquet, the open hall was quiet except for the occasional sound of bowls and chopsticks colliding. My daughter can sit up on an equal footing with us." Several other people giggled

Baochai pulled back the chopsticks, her face turned red and white, but Xiangyun couldn't help it, turned around and said loudly, "What are you talking about?!"

The woman rolled her eyes at her, curled her lips and said, "What are you doing for others? You're just an orphan girl."

Daiyu frowned, and when she was about to speak, Xiangyun went up to her and gave her a strong push, who knew that the girl was just so quick-spoken, and she was caught off guard by this sudden push, and directly plunged into the dishes on the table, The sweet and sour chrysanthemum stained her face, and the maids standing there rushed forward to clean up for her. The girl was stunned and burst into tears, but Xiangyun still stared at her angrily. The remaining girls looked at each other, not daring to cause trouble , bowed his head obediently

The girl was crying so much that the maid had no choice but to take her out of the open hall. After a while, desserts were served, and everyone returned to the previous atmosphere. Daiyu Baochai didn't say anything, just kept silent.

Until the end of the luncheon, the girl did not come back, so everyone just played their own games.

Mu Ruonan was sticking to Daiyu to see Erqiao, the two-color chrysanthemum, and whispered as he walked, "I thought I had to compose poems and paintings today, so I asked my brother to compose a few poems about chrysanthemums. No
