[Red House] The Twins of Purple Pearls

Jia Baoyu saw a group of sisters, so he came over to greet them one by one, very polite.

Yanyu secretly tore off Daiyu's skirt, and Daiyu was just beside her sister.

The jade stone shone brightly in the sun, with clear marks and lines.

Yanyu seems to just glance at it casually, thinking about what is the fate that Fairy Jing Huan arranged for Baoyu?The mystery is the magic spell she cast on the jade.

I saw Baoyu smiling and saying to their sisters, "The two sisters are having fun at home."

Tanchun smiled lightly: "Second elder brother should worry a lot! Our ancestors have already made proper arrangements for the two elder sisters."

"I heard that the two younger sisters are from Yangzhou; Yangzhou is different from Beijing. If the two younger sisters feel uncomfortable at home, feel free to tell them." Yes, but his eyes lingered on Daiyu all the time, only when he inadvertently touched Yanyu's calm face, he lowered his head in embarrassment.

He heard that the two younger sisters of the Lin family were twins, but for some reason they felt completely different to him.

The second younger sister of the Lin family is gentle and beautiful, every smile and frown makes people feel like a spring breeze, so he can't help but want to go to her and get close to her.The eldest sister of the Lin family is very similar to the second sister in terms of face and demeanor, but it only makes him feel awe and fear. Even the smile that is the same as the second sister seems to be tainted with coldness and alienation. With a light glance, it feels like a light is on the back.

Yanyu was still standing aside with her younger sister, smiling lightly: "Thank you second cousin, we will make a note of it."

Daiyu was also smiling, but she was looking at her sister without moving her gaze away.

Originally Baoyu wanted to talk to Daiyu, but now he can't.

"Second brother just came back from school, right?" Tanchun smiled and said to Baoyu, "We just went to see my sister-in-law and Brother Lan, and we are about to go to the old ancestor's side!"

Baoyu said he was going to say hello to his mother, so he said goodbye to them and went to Mrs. Wang's yard.

We had dinner together in Shi Taijun's house, and suddenly I heard Shi Taijun instructing Madam Lai to say: "It's almost the Qiqiao Girl's Day, and the house will still hold a banquet to make Qiaoguo as in previous years. When the time comes, I will bring the eldest daughter of the Shi family over and share with the girls." Let's play together."

Hearing Shi Taijun mention the historian, Yanyu was obviously taken aback for a moment, then asked Xichun curiously in a low voice: "Fourth younger sister, this eldest daughter of the historian, should she be the grandniece of my grandmother?" She knew everything about the historian well; There is only one girl in her generation, her name is Xiangyun. Because her parents died early, she was brought up by her two uncles, Baoling Hou Shi Nai and Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding.

Xichun really thought that Yanyu knew nothing, so she told her about the historian.

Xiangyun's father was originally the eldest son of Baoling Hou, who died young, leaving only his young daughter Xiangyun, who was raised by two uncles in turn.Baoling Hou Shi Nai and Zhongjing Hou Shi Dingxi each have two sons. There is no sister in the family who is similar in age to Xiangyun. The aunt is busy with important affairs in the house and has no time to take care of her young niece. To the side, and Sanchun grew up together.

"Sister Yun is also very good, she often plays with us." Xichun said after a little thought.

"I met Aunt Zhuang when I was in Yangzhou, and I heard that she is the aunt of the Shi family." Yanyu remembered to ask.

But Mrs. Zhuang Shi was married 20 years ago. Although Mrs. Zhuang was transferred back to Beijing, she returned to her hometown in Gusu when Dingyou met. The girls of the younger generation didn’t know her very well; I did meet Mrs. Zhuang before, but she was too young to remember clearly.

Shi Taijun had just finished giving orders to Nanny Lai, when he turned around and heard Yanyu mention Zhuang Shishi.

Zhuang Shishi is the youngest niece of Shi Taijun's natal family. What she loves most is this clever little niece. When Zhuang Shishi didn't discuss marriage, she even wanted to ask her natal sister-in-law to marry her to Rongguo Mansion. to be her daughter-in-law.

Hearing what Yanyu said, Shi Taijun smiled kindly and asked their sisters: "Did you also meet Aunt Zhuang when you were in Yangzhou?"

Daiyu nodded and said, "Aunt Zhuang often comes to our house as a guest, and my mother often takes me and my sister to Aunt Zhuang's house."

Shi Taijun nodded with a gratified smile, "Your Aunt Zhuang is the kindest person."

Listening to Shi Taijun's words, Yanyu always felt that Shi Taijun must know something, otherwise she wouldn't suddenly have such emotion.

But Daiyu looked a little gloomy, and her lowered eyelids were stained with a little sadness.

Because Baoyu had been ordered by Jia Zheng to be detained in the front yard by Mr. Jia to study and copy scriptures. During this time, even when he came to Shi Taijun to greet him and accompany him, he was listless and sloppy. Shi Taijun was very distressed when he saw him. Ask the kitchen to stew ginseng soup for Master Bao every day and send it to the front yard.

"Old ancestor, I still want to come back to live, and I can always be with my ancestor." Baoyu tried to act like a baby to Shi Taijun, hoping that Shi Taijun would tell Jia Zheng to allow him to come back and live, "I usually live in the outer courtyard, and I rarely see my sisters at home. All of you can’t be as filial to your ancestors as you used to be.”

Shi Taijun has always loved his grandson the most. Hearing his sincere words, I feel that he has grown up and sensible, and he is very gratified: "You are now at the age when you should study hard with your husband in school. If you have this kind of thought, you can Very good, I still have your sisters here with me. I am even more happy that you have studied hard and obtained a good reputation."

Baoyu seemed to disagree with this statement, but nodded vaguely because he didn't want to make Shi Taijun sad.

Yanyu and Daiyu are working as female celebrities in the room with Sanchun, talking casually at the same time.

As the Qixi Festival approached, what Sanchun talked about was also about begging for a daughter's banquet.Tanchun said that according to the rules of previous years, the banquet was held in the Yuhuaxie in the backyard, and the young daughter-in-law and girls wore colored threads and ate Qiaoguo, which was also very lively.

But what Yanyu thought of was the Tanabata lantern that Yu Ming and she were talking about; they were the daughters who hadn't left the court, so they couldn't go out to see the lantern at will, and now they were staying at the grandmother's house, so they couldn't do anything rashly.

Three springs are all in high spirits, even Yingchun, who is usually reticent, jokes with the sisters, only Daiyu can see what Yanyu is thinking.

After returning to the house, Daiyu asked Yanyu: "Does my sister miss my sister Ming?"

"What happened yesterday can no longer be pursued." Yan Yu shook her head and said in a low voice.

"Since you can't be chased, why should my sister be so sad?" Daiyu caressed her and said softly, "Sister Ming also said in her letter that she is well at home, isn't that what we want?" ?”

Even so, Yanyu still felt a little uneasy.

Everything in the capital is unpredictable, what will be the future of the Xu family?How should Yu Ming deal with himself?Even at the age of their sisters, people began to come to their door to discuss marriage for them, but Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Li did not plan to discuss marriage for Yu Ming; In Gongqing's family, Yu Ming was the only one who caught up with Xu's defeat and failed to talk about marriage. Why didn't Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Li feel anxious?All these anomalies are the source of Yanyu's uneasiness.

In the afternoon, Yanyu took a nap on the kang; the room was filled with ice cubes to enjoy the coolness, and the coolness dispelled the heat, and even the endless chirping of cicadas on the trees outside the house seemed to be a little weaker.

Hearing the sound of someone pushing the door, Yanyu woke up in a daze, and saw Yiyue came in with an ice bowl and put it on the table: "Girl, eat an ice bowl! Sister Yubai ordered me to pour iced sour plum soup , Said that the girl likes the sour plum juice ice bowl the most."

"Sister Yubai knows better than me!" Yanyu laughed teasingly.

The mung bean soup in Beijing is salty, but fortunately, this sour plum juice ice bowl is no different, and the sweet and sour coolness melts between the lips and teeth.

Yanyu ate half a bowl of ice bowls before she remembered that she hadn't seen Daiyu in the room since she woke up: "Did Yuer go out just now?" In such a scorching hot day, don't go out to burn yourself out.

Yiyue hurriedly said: "Miss, don't worry, Elder Sister Ye Zi and Yiqing are also going out with Second Miss."

Ye Zi has always been steady, so Yan Yu felt a little relieved.

It was only time for a cup of tea, and Daiyu came back in a hurry, and sat beside Yanyu with an aggrieved expression on her face.Yanyu signaled Yiyue Yiqing and the others to go down, and then wiped off the thin sweat from Daiyu's forehead with the handkerchief: "In such a hot day, don't walk around outside. If you catch the heat, you will let mother and you Grandmother is worried."

"Sister!" Daiyu called out softly, took Yanyu's hand and said to her, "Just now I met my second cousin in the yard."

Yan Yu was slightly stunned, she already unconsciously frowned, and tentatively asked her sister: "What did he say to you?"

Daiyu smacked her lips, and said, "He said he didn't like to read those sour prose written by old Confucian scholars, but Second Uncle insisted on forcing him to memorize gaudy scriptures in the school, so that he could obtain fame and glory."

Yanyu raised her eyebrows: "He doesn't want to be famous and honor his ancestors, so what does he want to do?" She was very suspicious of Fairy Jinghuan's ulterior motives, and she definitely wouldn't give Jia Baoyu a smooth and happy fate, maybe she would even make something happen. What kind of absurd thing is in line with the purpose of Fairy Jing Huan; but in front of her sister, Yanyu just joked, "Could it be that he still wants to become a fairy?"

Only then did Daiyu chuckle, and said coquettishly, "My sister will talk nonsense!"

"So my father is still very accurate in judging people! It's also a good thing that my mother didn't agree to my grandmother to send Yan'er to study together, otherwise Ruo Yan'er would also be taught these crooked principles, and she would only want to become a fairy. What should I do? ?” She frowned and sighed half-truly, as if something really happened.

Sure enough, Daiyu was misled by her words, and nodded accordingly: "That's right, sister is right!"

Yanyu couldn't help but smiled and nodded her forehead: "Don't just say this! If Yan'er learns from you in the future, it will also make parents worry."

Daiyu still nodded very seriously, and said sincerely, "Sister is right."

Yanyu sighed helplessly, she really deserved to be her own sister.
