Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat

It turned out that after the court was over that day, Lin Ruhai listened to his colleagues chatting about the Lantern Festival.The imperial decree has ordered Yousi to start the arrangement, and on the night of Yuan Ye, the royal driver will come to Zhengyang gate tower.After hearing the news, all the officials in the court and central government had already pulled up the curtains on both sides of the gate tower, preparing for the family members to watch the lanterns in the curtains, so as not to be crowded with the men and women outside.Lin Ruhai remembered that Daiyu was usually at home and had limited time to go out, so she was bored, so she thought she would also go out to relax.

After discussing, Lin Ruhai sent someone to find a place to pull the curtain.

Although there are no restrictions on finding an open space, the place under the gate is owned by the imperial court, not a certain family, but there are certain conventions, or the same rules.Families of the same level gather together. Those close to the gate tower are basically the royal relatives or family members, and the officials from various ministries are located outside. The ordinary gentry and wealthy households can only be further outside.

Lin Ruhai acted late, the place was occupied and there was not much left.But everywhere it is all about status, power and influence. Lin Ruhai is now the prince's teacher, and he is a favorite of the prince. His weight is not low, and he may be even more popular in the future. Some people give him face.Therefore, as soon as the news about Lin Ruhai was released, many people took the initiative to make room for him.

Most of Lin Ruhai declined, and in the end, a few old friends who were familiar with each other took out a little from each family, and gathered together, although it was not very generous, it was enough.

It's just that there is some distance from the Zhengyang gate tower where the royal driver descended.

But that's good too, Lin Ruhai is quite satisfied.

Unexpectedly, after Zhou Hang knew about it, he did not know where to draw a piece of land for Lin Ruhai, just below the city gate, next to the princes, princesses, princesses and other nobles.Lin Ruhai had no choice but to accept.

The Jia family also ordered the whole family to come out to enjoy the lanterns. The men walked in front, and the curtain was drawn behind, while the women and girls wore veils and walked inside the curtain, talking and laughing, it was very lively.Mrs. Zheng didn't go out to appreciate the lanterns, so Zheng Lihua came out with Lin Daiyu and walked to Kangrong Street in front of Zhengyang Gate, just in time to meet people from Jia's residence.

Jia's mother likes to be lively. Although she is old and weak, she also comes out to watch in a bamboo chair and a sedan chair.Jia Zheng, Jia Zhen, and Jia Rong were leading the way, and there was another person Daiyu didn't know, but judging from the clothes and the attitude of everyone, it should be Wang's nephew, who is not serious about beating people to death, and is called the overlord— —Xue Pan, there are more than a dozen young servants pulling up a large curtain that is one foot wide and two feet long.The dozen or so young servants were all dressed in the same attire, wearing black brocade robes and forged boots, they were very strikingly dressed, attracting countless people to watch and admire them along the way.

Mother Jia sat on the sedan chair with a smile on her face, and waved to the crowd.

Surrounded by many men and women, there are Wang Shi, Jia Zhen's daughter-in-law You Shi, Jia Rong's wife Hu Shi, Jia Baoyu, Tanchun, Xichun, Xue Wangshi and their daughter Xue Baochai.

Now that we met, Daiyu couldn't help but go up to see her.

Jiamu took Daiyu's hand and asked her to play with her family.Before Jia's mother finished speaking, Tanchun stepped forward and hugged Daiyu, and said with a smile, "It's been a long time since I haven't seen Sister Lin, so it's a strange thought in my heart. Today I can find a chance to get close to Sister Lin."

Daiyu declined with a smile, Jia Baoyu was unwilling, and stepped forward to pull Daiyu's hand, but fortunately Hui'er had sharp eyesight and quick hands, turned around and appeared in front of Daiyu, her eyes widened, scaring Jia Baoyu back.When Jia Mu saw this, she didn't dare to force her.Now it's not at home, but on the street, besides, Daiyu is not alone, there is also Zheng Lihua, if there is a trouble, it will not look good at home.

Daiyu wondered why Yingchun didn't come out together, and she didn't see her uncle.The eldest uncle seems to like excitement, so it is said that he would not miss such an occasion.

Therefore, after bidding farewell to Jiamu and others, Daiyu sent someone to inquire about the house of Rongfu.

It turned out that Jia Amnesty suddenly fell ill and hadn't gone out for a long time, recuperating at home.The owner of the family was ill, so it was impossible for the Xing family to go out alone, so Yingchun couldn't go out.After understanding the situation, Daiyu thought, no wonder all the people I met just now were from the second room.But my grandmother even called out the relatives of the Ningguo Mansion and the Wang family, but she didn't call her cousin Yingchun. It seemed that she hated the long house.

Thinking about it, he sent someone to check on Jia She's condition, and at the same time sent a sedan chair to welcome Yingchun out.

Daiyu brought Yingchun out, firstly because she wanted to let her relax, she was always bored at home, her vision and mood could not be widened, sooner or later she would get sick from boredom, and secondly, Daiyu also wanted to learn about Jia She's condition through Yingchun's mouth , it is better to send some tonics according to the situation.

But he said that all the people in Jia's house were walking forward, and Xue Pan was stumbled by something and almost fell down.Jia Rong quickly supported him and smiled, "Uncle Xue, did you find the money?"

If the other elders were changed, Jia Rong would never dare to make such a joke, but Xue Pan was born as a businessman, Jia Rong would have looked down on him, and Xue Pan's usual behavior, there is nothing to respect, yes Only he dared to do this.

Xue Pan didn't realize anything was wrong, he chuckled, lifted the small stone that tripped him, and cursed a few words.

Jia Zhen laughed and said, "Brother Xue, what are you thinking? You didn't even see the stones on the road."

Xue Pan didn't answer, but still laughed.Jia Zhen didn't ask any more questions, and everyone continued to move forward.After a while, Xue Pan looked at Jia Rong and asked, "How old is Miss Lin?"

Jia Rong frowned, but didn't take it seriously, subconsciously said: "Why are you asking this?"

Xue Pan's eyes floated up.

Jia Rong suddenly realized, "It was because of Miss Lin that you lost your mind just now, and you were tripped?"

Xue Pan nodded, he also knew that Lin Daiyu's identity was beyond his imagination, even if it got to the ears of the Lin family, he would not have any good fruit to eat.Therefore, seeing that Jia Rong had guessed what was on his mind, Xue Pan hurriedly pulled Jia Rong back and motioned him to keep silent.

Jia Rong understood, and whispered: "Uncle Xue, don't worry, I will definitely not tell others."

Xue Pan said, "My good nephew, I believe in you."

Jia Rong asked softly again: "Miss Lin is wearing a veil, Uncle Xue, you haven't even seen her face, why..."
