[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

People who have been bedridden for a long time cannot always fall asleep, and sleeping too much is not good for recovery.

Kuang Lin Daiyu has been asleep for more than two hours, and if she is asked to sleep now, she will not be able to sleep.

It's not suitable to read books and practice calligraphy during illness, and talking a lot with people is very exhausting. Lin Jian was afraid that Lin Daiyu would feel lonely during illness, so he specially prepared gadgets to relieve her boredom and brought them here.

Lin Jian took out the pamphlet he had prepared from his pocket, and instead of showing it to Lin Daiyu, he waved it in his hand and said with a smile, "You are sick now, and you can't go out. The situation outside is purple. Juan and I can talk to you. But I also know that you must still be thinking about the situation outside. Now Lintaiji is getting a good response outside. I know you are thinking about it, so I found this to read to you. Listen, so that you can know what the outside world is saying now."

Lintai Collection not only received a great response in the capital, but also had a greater impact in Yangzhou than in the capital after it dispersed from Yangzhou Bookstore.

After all, Lin Ruhai once served as a salt inspection censor in Yangzhou, and he has always had a high prestige among Yangzhou literati. His articles were originally collected by many people. This is a great temptation for the literati in Yangzhou.

After the publication of Lintai Collection, no matter in Duzhong or Yangzhou, literati who have read Lintai Collection have written many post-reading thoughts. Some of these post-reading miscellaneous notes express their nostalgia for Lin Ruhai, and some are about Lin Ruhai’s articles. Others are praise and appreciation for Lin Ruhai having such a talented daughter, and praise and appreciation for Lin Daiyu's poems.

Among them, there are also some voices, which are appreciation and admiration for those equally talented women in the capital.

When Lin Daiyu was not ill, or when she was walking outside with Qiao Shi, she could see and hear these feedbacks due to Lintai Collection.

But now that he is ill, he cannot have too much contact with the outside world in order to recuperate well, so this information has lagged behind.

This Lintai collection is the result of the joint efforts of many people, and Lin Daiyu has also put in a lot of effort in it. If it weren't for her hard work and contact, there would not be so many articles written by women in Lintai. It is impossible to say that Lin Daiyu doesn't care about the follow-up impact of Lin Taiji.

Lin Daiyu saw that because of her illness, the mansion was busy hiring a doctor for her while preparing for Lin Hong's birthday banquet, she still felt a little sorry, so she never expressed her feelings, only thinking about the daily azalea fragrance Wu Xianrou and the three of them could also get some outside news from Aunt Sun, and she was not completely isolated from the outside world, so she just kept this thought in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jian thought of everything for her without saying a word. He thought of her even though she never said anything.

Lin Jian said that the booklet he brought contains the latest comments on her poems by scholars in Yangzhou, and there are some republican poems in it.Moreover, there were quite a few comments on Lin Ruhai's articles. Lin Jian saw that they were well written and interesting, so he copied them all and brought them here in this booklet.

Lin Daiyu stared into Lin Jian's eyes, and looked at him for a while, then Gu Panliu's eyes narrowed and smiled slightly, and said softly: "Third brother, I can't read these words now, please read it to me, okay?"

Lin Jian smiled and nodded: "It's natural, I'll read it to you."

Lin Daiyu was still ill, how could he be willing to make her tired?

Even after reading the articles in this pamphlet to her, Lin Jian couldn't bear to speak too loudly, for fear of disturbing Lin Daiyu, his voice was so gentle that even the birds that occasionally rested on the window pane outside could not be scared away.

Lin Daiyu was tired before finishing the booklet.

Lin Jian put away the pamphlet, and prepared to read it to Lin Daiyu next time when she was in good spirits.

Lin Daiyu just slept through the noon and didn't even have lunch.I didn't feel hungry after waking up, and I didn't feel hungry after taking the medicine.But after hearing Lin Jian read an article, she not only felt tired, but also had some abdominal muscles.

Lin Jian accompanied her for a while to eat porridge and side dishes, and he didn't leave until everything was settled at Lin Daiyu's place and settled again.

Back in his yard, Lin Jian took out the booklet he was carrying in his arms, carefully smoothed out the folds on the booklet, and then put the booklet behind the desk, ready to change clothes and go out to run errands.

As soon as Lin Jian unbuttoned his clothes, Qian Ying came to him with a letter.

"Master, this is a letter I just received from Yangzhou. It is some comments and articles about Lintai Collection in Yangzhou recently."

Lin Jian nodded casually, changed his clothes as usual, and only raised his chin to signal Qian Ying: "Let's put it aside. I'll pick out some more and take the time to copy them later."

Besides receiving the letter, Qian Ying also had other news to share with Lin Jian.

"Young Master, the Lintai Collection has spread not only in Duzhong and Yangzhou, but also in other surrounding prefectures and counties. Especially in several prefectures and counties in the south of the Yangtze River, the spread is faster than we expected. Because of the scope It’s too wide, and we don’t have enough manpower, so there are always some pirated prints. But fortunately, the Holy Majesty supported it, and the local officials are willing to do their best. Whenever there are pirated prints, the government will clean them up, so the situation is not bad.”

"It's just that after a long time, there are always some bad voices coming out. The background of this Lintai collection is quite big, and no one in the government and the public can say it's not good. It's just that this follow-up work appears frequently, and some people see it Now that Miss Lin is in the limelight, it is not uncommon for her to take advantage of the wind and follow her."

Qian Ying told Lin Jian that there are many follow-up poems on the market now, and I don't know if they are written by women. Anyway, they are anthologies and poems compiled in the name of talented women. Some of these anthologies and poems are good, but Most of them are pretentious and pretentious, but those girls are not afraid of being famous. There is Lin Daiyu in the front, and the countless girls behind are all wanting the fame of that talented girl.

Lin Jian didn't react too much after hearing this, and just said that Qian Ying should ignore it: "Following the trend can't last long. Besides, they didn't steal Miss Lin's poems. If they want to stand out, it depends on their own ability." If you are really talented, others will not be able to stop you."

Because of the emergence of Lintaiji, the world is now flocking to talented women, and scholars are sought after by everyone, but these people are not fools, they will not be able to tell the difference between the talent of fooling people and the real talent.

Qian Ying said again: "Now there is a collection of Begonia's poems on the market. This collection of poems has been brought back by someone under my command. Please take a look, young master."

Lin Jian glanced at Qian Ying, reached out to take the book that Qian Ying handed over, and flipped through it in his hand.

Lin Jian thought, if it was an ordinary collection of poems, there would be no reason for Qian Ying to bring it back for him to read. When he first received it, Lin Jian thought that it might be a collection of poems from Fenglintai Collection.

Lin Jian was thinking like this, and after looking through them one by one, he realized that he was thinking too lightly.Where is this collection of poems about Lintai collection?This is clearly from the bottom of the Lintai collection.

Lin Jian closed the collection of poems, tapped the cover with his index finger, looked up at Qian Ying with a half-smile, and asked him, "What's the origin of this collection of poems? Have you found out who published it?"

The words Haitang Poetry Collection are clearly printed on the cover of the booklet.

So, what is Begonia Poems?

When Rongguo Mansion was in its heyday, all the girls in the mansion lived in the Grand View Garden. They had nothing to do, and the girls pursued elegance to live their lives. Tanchun formed a Begonia Poetry Club.Every time the poetry club opened, it would compose poems. The Haitang Poetry Collection in Lin Jian's hand contained the poems of everyone except Lin Daiyu since the opening of the Haitang Poetry Club.

The Rongguo Mansion has fallen, and the Grand View Garden has also been taken away by the government. The girls in the mansion are no longer the carefree young ladies in the past. But taking advantage of the east wind of Lintaiji, they were organized into collections and sent to bookstores for sale.

Lin Jian has always cared about Lin Daiyu very much. He knew everything about her in the Rongguo Mansion in the past. As soon as he held this collection of Begonia poems in his hand today, he knew that this collection of Begonia poems was definitely not compiled by outsiders. .

Not to mention that these poems are so complete in conclusion, just looking at the decoration design of this collection of poems, you can tell that such an elegant binding is a collection of poems produced by a famous bookstore in the capital, and it will not be a random thing made by the rabble outside.

This must be a collection of poems carefully prepared by someone who is very familiar with the Rongguo Mansion, the Haitang Poetry Club, and even the girls in the mansion.

According to Qian Yingfang, when this collection of Begonia's poems first came out, many people read it, but few people bought it.The reason why people didn't dare to buy it was because this collection of Haitang poetry made it very clear why it was assembled, and made it clear that it was a collection of poems from the Haitang Poetry Society of Rongguo Prefecture.

Prince Rui's rebellion involved the Ningrong Second House, and the two Duke Houses were defeated. Everyone didn't dare to get involved in such a thing, for fear of getting into trouble, so they didn't dare to buy this episode.

But this collection of Begonia's poems has the complete poems written by Lin Daiyu and Shi Xiangyun in the poetry club.After the people who read it discovered this, it was spread ten times and hundreds of times, and all the literati in the capital knew about it, and they all came to read this collection of Begonia poems. In addition, the government did not treat those who bought the collection of poems. So gradually, more and more people bought this Begonia poetry collection.

Many people went for Lin Daiyu at the beginning, but after reading it, they found that the authors of most of the poems in the anthology, that is, the girls who used to live in the Rongguo Mansion, were also somewhat talented. Slowly, This Anthology of Begonia's Poems has gained some reputation. Among the many follow-up works in Lintai Anthology, this Anthology of Begonia's Poems has the best reputation.

Qian Yingdao: "My subordinates have found out. The young master's expectation is good. This collection of Haitang poems is indeed published by someone who is very familiar with the Rongguo Mansion. This person also lived in the Rongguo Mansion for a period of time."
