[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

Everyone said that Lin Daiyu was a cold personality who liked to part but not to get together. When others were in the midst of excitement, she was the only one who was not sociable, always thinking about the depression after parting and taking pleasure in it.

But no one thought about Lin Daiyu.

She lost her mother when she was young, and she was sent to the Rongguo Mansion within a few days of her birthday with Lin Ruhai. Even though she was in her grandmother's house, in Lin Daiyu's view, it was also a day of being a guest under someone else's fence, and she could never make mistakes.

Even though Jia's mother, Wang Xifeng, loves her, she is still separated by a layer, so how can it compare to the love and care of her parents?So from Lin Daiyu's point of view, those excitements are all fake, and they don't belong to her.On the contrary, it was the desertedness after the excitement, which was really her own.

But human nature is to yearn for light and warmth, if there is a excitement that truly belongs to her, how can she let it go so easily?

Lin Daiyu lowered her eyes slightly, she took a lotus seed and rubbed it gently on her fingertips: "I will tell you the truth, third brother, I don't want to sell this ancestral house."

"A few days ago, Aunt Li came to look for me. She said that she wanted to stay here and continue to guard the family's house and land, and wanted to ask me not to sell the house. There are also many old people in the Lin family who also said that they don't want to Leave here. They are old, if I dispose of all these things, they will have nowhere to go, and there will be no place for them to die in the future. And even if I want to, it is impossible to bring them all into that mansion. "

Aunt Li once gave birth to a son for Lin Ruhai, but the child was congenitally deficient and died within two years of birth.Aunt Li was hurt when she gave birth to a child, and later she was sad for the child, and gradually became weaker.Lin Ruhai was afraid that she would be overworked, so he asked her to go back to the old house in Gusu to recuperate and guard the old house by the way.

Aunt Li was used to living here, so she couldn't bear to leave.She didn't want to go back to the capital either, she just wanted to take care of the remaining servants of the original Lin family here.

Lin Daiyu wanted to fulfill Aunt Li's wish, but she also had her worries in her heart, "But I don't live here, and there is a room full of old and weak women and children. It is inevitable that people will worry about the things of such a big family. If it really comes out What matter, I am far away in the capital, even if I want to, I can't solve it."

"Third Brother, I want to keep it, but I'm afraid we won't be able to keep it."

Lin Daiyu is not a girl who likes to confide her sufferings to others.She is always reluctant to tell others about her troubles, because she is afraid of causing trouble to others.

But Lin Jian made her feel the warmth that she hadn't seen for a long time. This cold flame of hers that had been burning in the dark for an unknown amount of time, she couldn't help but want to get closer when she encountered this warmth. When she got close to the warmth, she seemed to see her own cold The appearance of the flame dancing in the light.

This feeling made her linger, made her want to experience more, and even made her unable to help but quietly opened her heart.

Lin Daiyu only ate a dozen lotus seeds, and there was still half a plate of fresh lotus seeds left there. After Lin Daiyu said this, the lotus seeds on her fingertips also warmed her fingers. Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and hesitated. For a while, still taking advantage of Zicuckoo not paying attention to her, she quietly peeled the lotus seeds and ate them.

As soon as Lin Daiyu raised her eyes, she saw Lin Jian smiling at her. Lin Daiyu felt a little embarrassed, she was afraid that she couldn't help but want to eat again, so she simply asked Lin Jian to push the crystal plate between the two of them. push.

Lin Jian smiled. He knew that Lin Daiyu couldn't eat too much, so he peeled off all the lotus seeds in the crystal dish, and then motioned Qian Ying to break some pieces of ice. This is worrying."

"The day I first arrived in Gusu, I talked to the county magistrate of Gusu. Girl, just rest assured that the government will protect the Lin family secretly. Even if the girl leaves, no one here will dare to bully the girl's relatives."

"Actually, I also think it's good to keep it here, but I didn't know what the girl was thinking at the time, so I secretly said hello. Now that the girl doesn't want to sell, let's keep it."

"Gusu belongs to southern Anhui. The magistrate of Gusu has met me a few times. I know him. He is a good person. Since he promised to protect the Lin family, he will not break his promise. Besides, I am still in southern Anhui. It's kind of thin."

Lin Jian thought of everything, and he arranged everything properly for her.

Lin Daiyu suddenly remembered that one autumn, the weather was bad that year, and it rained for more than half a month.She was attacked by the weather, and her condition was serious. She could only lie on the couch to recuperate every day. She was tortured by coughing and headache every day, and she was groggy.

One day when she was in better spirits, Xue Baochai came to see her in the rain, and had a heart-to-heart talk with her.She couldn't help but confide the difficulty in her heart. Xue Baochai solved her troubles and promised to send her bird's nest from her every day to take care of her body. Later, Jia Baoyu found out about this matter. He also persuaded Jia's mother to make the decision to add bird's nest to Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu was particularly moved by this incident.At that time, Lin Daiyu wanted to throw herself into Xue Baochai's arms and cry aloud when she heard Xue Baochai explain her gently and patiently, solve her worries and problems, and put her in his heart.

She thought that it was the pity others treated her.

Now, knowing what Lin Jian did, she wanted to cry again.But she knew in her heart that Lin Jian was different from Xue Baochai.

How could someone treat her so well, without her saying anything, he arranged everything in secret?

Lin Daiyu didn't want Lin Jian to see herself crying. She lowered her eyes slightly and blinked lightly. A few hot tears fell on the hem of her skirt and were instantly absorbed by the fabric. to calm down.

At this moment, Qian Ying was bringing a plate of crushed ice that Lin Jian wanted, and Lin Jian was putting the peeled lotus seeds into the crushed ice, so he didn't notice Lin Daiyu's small movements.

When Lin Jian put the crushed ice lotus seeds together and looked up again, Lin Daiyu had calmed down and was looking at him with full eyes. She thanked Lin Jian with gratitude in her eyes.

Lin Daiyu's eyes were red, because her eyes were still red and swollen, and Lin Jian couldn't see the traces of her crying just now, but felt that Lin Daiyu's pure white body against the greenery of the courtyard was very beautiful, he I watched it again for a while.

He didn't wake up until the crushed ice in the crystal dish in his hand melted/water, and the icy water dripped onto his legs, and the coolness soaked into his skin through the clothes.

Lin Jian lowered his head and put the crushed ice and lotus seeds into his mouth with a spoon.

The lotus seeds are slightly sweet, the lotus heart is slightly bitter, and the crushed ice melts in the mouth. After only one bite, Lin Jian felt refreshed and relieved from the heat.

Lin Jian raised his head and saw that Lin Daiyu was still looking at her, so he raised the crystal plate in his hand and said with a smile, "I used to eat this way to relieve the heat in the army. The weather in southern Anhui is hot, but I can't eat this when I go to sea to fight, and I can't eat it. You can only taste it every summer when you are stationed."

Lin Jian was afraid that he would offend Lin Daiyu, so he didn't dare to tell Lin Daiyu that the rough men in the army didn't eat like him.Those rough guys just grabbed a handful of shelled lotus seeds and threw them into their mouths, and then grabbed the ice cubes and ate them directly.

He can also eat like that, but he can't bear to eat like that.He still likes this more particular way of eating.

Lin Daiyu looked at Lin Jian for a moment, and then said softly: "Third brother, you have already got the real account book. Don't delay your affairs for me. I'm afraid I'll stay in Gusu for a few more days, and I have to wait until the house is settled. You can only leave if you have something to do. How about third brother go back to Yangzhou first?"

Lin Jian finished eating the crushed ice lotus seeds in the plate, put the crystal plate on the table, and said with a smile, "Since I came with you, I will naturally go back together."

"Everyone in Yangzhou knows that I came back with your coffin. If I left early and left you here alone, wouldn't this be telling everyone that I didn't come to Gusu for you? Is there another meaning behind my move?"

"Miss Lin, I won't leave. I'll wait for you to finish handling the family affairs and settle down, and we'll go back together. You don't have to worry about Yangzhou, I've arranged everything, it's fine. You can take your time Take your time, don't rush."

Lin Jian smiled warmly, "Besides, it's been so long, Miss Lin still can't trust me?"

Lin Jian still had something to do, so he sat with Lin Daiyu for a while, then got up to leave.

"It's hot outside, the heat is getting lower, and the wind has turned into a hot wind. Miss Lin can sit for a while if she likes it, but it shouldn't be too much. It's better to go inside and rest."

Lin Jian explained a lot of things before leaving, Zijuan watched Lin Jian leave the yard, and couldn't help but sigh that Lin Jian was so considerate and considerate, Lin Daiyu watched Lin Jian go away, but didn't answer Zijuan's words.

She looked up at the lush and lush tree in the yard. The wind moved the leaves a little, and the tree wanted to be quiet but the wind kept on. If the wind never stopped, the tree would hardly calm down.

Her acceptance of Lin Jian's love is more than just a life-saving favor?She owed Lin Jian, how could she be able to pay for it with a third brother?

After leaving Lin Daiyu's yard, Qian Ying wiped off her sweat, and asked Lin Jian very puzzled: "The young master asked Miss Lin to change his words, why didn't the young master change himself? Miss Lin is called the third brother of the young master, and the young master also calls her Miss Lin, isn't it true?" Is it through life?"

Lin Jian smiled and glanced at Qian Ying: "As far as you mean, should I call her Sister Lin?"

"You're not enlightened, kid, and you won't understand if you tell me. This little sister can't bark at random. Once she barks, it will be difficult to change her mouth in the future!"

Lin Jian raised his eyes to look at the sky, the sun was too dazzling, he stretched out his hand to block it, the sun fell through his fingers and fell on the end of his slightly raised eyes, he squinted slightly, thinking to himself, he never regarded Lin Daiyu as a My sister saw it.
