[Red Mansions] Lord Hou's daily routine

Lin Daiyu paid great attention to health preservation when she was at home, and her eating habits were adjusted according to her physical condition.

It's just that she later entered the Rongguo Mansion. The living and eating habits in the mansion were completely different from those at home. Lin Daiyu suddenly changed her environment and couldn't adapt at all.

But she doesn't want to show that she is special, she does as she pleases, saying that she doesn't have to be restrained at her grandmother's house, but on the surface she is here as a guest, but secretly, she is just an orphan and helpless How could she ask the mansion to change her living and eating habits for her who has defected here?

In desperation, she can only change herself.

For example, drinking tea after a meal, she never did this when she was at home, but it was like this here, and she had to drink it, so a few years ago I lived close to Jia Mu, and when I ate with Jia Mu, I only had this tea. One item lasted for several years, and it stopped after moving to the garden.

In all fairness, living in Rongguo Mansion is not as comfortable as it used to be at home. Lin Daiyu is worried that people will say that she is troublesome, and she dares not let her mind do many things. Once this eating habit is slack, this person will naturally get sick often of.

It is true that her body is not good, but she has not been able to take good care of her body in the past few years in Jia's house. If it weren't for the unusual generosity of Jia's medicine, her body would probably be worse. Worse.

Hearing Lin Daiyu's words, Lin Jian felt pity for her in his heart, and his eyes softened a bit. He looked at Lin Daiyu with a smile and said, "Which other people are you talking about?" ?”

Lin Jian saw Lin Daiyu's grievances and pitiful words. He wanted to make her feel sad for him, but he didn't want her to think of the unpleasant things in the past because of him, so he smiled and said something to tease her deliberately.

Lin Daiyu lowered her eyes slightly, she didn't answer Lin Jian's words, Lin Jian was pretending to be confused, she was not fooled, so she would not answer his words.

Lin Jian didn't speak any more, just stood still and looked at Lin Daiyu's beautiful profile under the lamp with a smile.

"I heard Madam say that the third brother loves to read military books the most, and looking at the third brother now, it is true that he has the most military books,"

After a while, Lin Daiyu raised her eyes lightly again, looked at Lin Jian and said, "Third brother is so unwilling to take care of himself, and he rarely reads books that teach people how to take care of himself. I have been sorting out the first few days. My father collected books, and my late father collected some rare books published by famous doctors in the previous dynasty, all of which taught people how to take care of them. I will bring them over in a few days, and I will ask my third brother to take a look when he is free."

Lin Jian smiled and agreed, "Okay."

Seeing that he agreed so readily, Lin Daiyu still couldn't believe him, and then said: "Third brother means what he says, if I bring it, third brother must see it."

Lin Jian was very straightforward: "No problem. As long as the girl brings the book, I will definitely read it!"

After saying that, he laughed again, "With a girl who supervises and cares so much, my problems will definitely get better."

Lin Daiyu wanted to say something else, but at this time, Qian Ying, who had sent Princess Yuanjia off, turned back and brought them back a message.

"Master, Miss Lin, Madam has sent a message that the meal is ready, please go to the dining hall for dinner with Young Master and Miss Lin."

Lin Jian raised his voice and said that he understood, so he asked Lin Daiyu to go with Qian Ying first, and he would go there after a while.

Facing Lin Daiyu's puzzled look, Lin Jian smiled and said, "I just came back from the government office, and I haven't bothered to change my clothes yet. Girl go first, and I'll be there after I change my clothes."

As soon as Lin Jian came back, he met Princess Yuanjia, and then chatted with Lin Daiyu. He was still wearing a vermilion official uniform, so he didn't have time to change it.

It was only then that Lin Daiyu saw that Lin Jian's clothes were still stained with rain, apparently she had come back from the rain, and seeing that Lin Jian's hair was a little wet, she quickly got up and said goodbye, and went to the dining room first.Lin Jian's health was not very good, and now it's autumn, and it's easy to get sick after wearing wet clothes for a long time, so he should change them out soon.

After Lin Jian and the others had left, he went back to his bedroom, went to find a set of dark-colored uniforms in the chest of drawers, and changed into them. Pick up the diamond-shaped medicine bag on the small table.

Just now when Lin Daiyu was here, he just held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, but he didn't feel ashamed to smell it in front of Lin Daiyu.

Now that no one was around, Lin Jian held the medicine bag up to his nose, took a deep breath, and the fragrant medicine was inhaled into his lungs along his nose. The dampness was washed away completely.

He could smell the looming fragrance of the medicine when he held the medicine bag in his hand before, but now that he got closer, he also felt that the fragrance of the medicine was pleasant, not offensive and not unpleasant, and the clear and light smell could make people feel better peace.

Since he arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, he has been busy with work, and it is really difficult for him to have a chance to sleep well. He really did not lie to Lin Daiyu on this point.

But the quality of his sleep is very good, not to mention sleeping for an hour or two, even if he is busy until the wee hours of the morning, and it is only half an hour before the morning time, he can lie down on the office desk and sleep for a while. He is a person who has never suffered from insomnia since he was a child.

But this exquisite medicine bag is Lin Daiyu's heart, he is reluctant to hide this medicine bag, he wants to put this medicine bag close to his heart, so that he lives with Lin Daiyu's heart every day, as long as he thinks about it I feel happy when I think about it.

Lin Jian held the medicine bag with great care and put it to his mouth, solemnly kissed the medicine bag lightly, then put the medicine bag in the lapel of his clothes with a smile and hid it close to his heart, then he straightened his clothes and went to the dining room to eat up.

Lin Hong and Qiao Shi liked Lin Daiyu very much, and they pitied her frail body, and took care of her in every possible way.

It was just a few people sitting together for a meal. When talking occasionally, Lin Hong heard Lin Daiyu call Lin Jian the third elder brother, but call him and Qiao Shi the general and wife.

Lin Hong was a little unhappy, he didn't dare to bring it up for fear of frightening Lin Daiyu, instead he quietly tugged at Qiao's sleeve, asking Qiao to bring it up.In fact, the husband and wife not only have a good understanding, but Qiao himself also has this idea.

After thinking about the words in her heart, Qiao Shi said this while chatting with a smile. Lin Daiyu was indeed a little embarrassed, but after getting along with her for a day, her feeling of closeness to Qiao Shi increased greatly, and she was not shy, so she changed her words openly Call Lin Hongqiao's uncle and aunt.

Lin Daiyu had to go back to Rongguo Mansion after eating in the West Garden.It was getting late, and although it wasn't raining outside, it was very dark, so Lin Jian personally sent Lin Daiyu back to Rongguo Mansion by car.

After Lin Jian left, Mrs. Qiao saw that the air was getting better after the rain, so she pushed Lin Hong out and went for a walk in the garden to digest food.

The roads in the garden of the West Garden are all paved with special stone slabs, which are very flat and not as difficult as the gravel roads, so that Lin Hong's wheelchair can pass smoothly.

The air was fresh after the rain. Some of the blooming flowers in the garden had their petals knocked off by the rain, and some were still blooming stubbornly and proudly. Lin Hong was delighted to see it, so he picked a few flowers with the help of a small lantern hanging on the fence by the side of the road. Hold it in your hand and have a look.

He smelled it fragrant, turned around and gave it to Joe.

"Before, Princess Yuanjia's sedan chair was parked on the road outside our garden. Because it was far away, no one in the manor paid special attention to it. Even I didn't know she was coming. It was Xiaojian who saw her when she came back and sent someone to ask her. I didn’t know until I saw the princess. I thought that the princess is coming, even though she sneaked out of the palace, we can’t ignore it, but I was about to send someone to look at it, and you came back, and you said that there is no need to send someone to look I don't know about this, but if the emperor and the imperial concubine in the palace know about it, will they think that we have neglected the princess?"

At that time, Mrs. Qiao didn't explain to Lin Hong why she wanted to stop her, but Lin Hong always listened to her very much. She said there was no need to go, so Lin Hong obeyed her.

Qiao said with a smile: "The princess sneaked out of the palace. She dressed up like that, one is to get out smoothly, and the other is to cover up her identity. Even if we all know, we can't go and see. The master thought the princess What is the purpose of Baba running out to find Xiaojian now? Princess Yuanjia has grown up, and the noble concubine wants to choose a pleasing son-in-law for the princess. The heart of the princess falls on our Xiaojian, but Xiaojian If she doesn't care, the two of them can't talk today, if the master sends someone to look at it, wouldn't the princess know that not only Xiao Jian and the people around him know what happened to her today, but we all know it too?"

"Little girl is thin-skinned. Even if we know about this matter, we have to pretend not to know. Since we can't become in-laws, we have to save some face for the holy concubine. If we bump into each other face to face, I'm afraid it's not a relationship between children." If the Holy Majesty loves Princess Yuanjia and insists on marrying the two children regardless of your previous words, what will you do then?"

Lin Hong thought for a while, and then said: "The Holy Majesty will not do such things that are difficult for others. But if it really happens, the matter will damage the princess's reputation, and I can't refuse the marriage offer. Hey, if that's the case, then I can only do it." I can feel sorry for Xiao Jian."

"After all, the princess's status is not low, and she was raised by the noble concubine's side. She grew up with him as a childhood sweetheart. The two people's identities match, and we have no reason to refuse the marriage."

Qiao Shi smiled: "If that's the case, I'm afraid not only Xiao Jian has been wronged, but Princess Yuanjia has also been wronged."

Lin Hongqi asked, "How do you say that?"

"Princess Yuanjia likes our son, and His Majesty loves her and gave her a marriage. Why did he wrong her?"

Qiao raised her eyebrows: "Why did the master forget? Xiaojian just said that he already has his own heart, and he already has a sweetheart, and then he marries the princess. How can the couple be harmonious? It's been a long time, and the two are reluctant , wouldn't they become a pair of resentful couples?"

"Although the princess was not born to the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine treats the princess very well. In her heart, the imperial concubine always hopes that the princess will find a lover who loves her and marry her. As a result, our son does not have her in his heart. If things go on like this, the princess will not feel wronged?"

"Furthermore, if the two of them really get married, it will be a pity for the girl Xiao Jian likes. She is a good girl. If Xiao Jian can marry her, it will be a good marriage."

Lin Hong nodded repeatedly when he heard the words, and praised Qiao's thorough thinking: "Madam is still thoughtful and long-term thinking!"

On a cool autumn night, Qiao and Lin Hong stayed together for a while. Afraid that the cold air would hit Lin Hong and hurt his legs, Qiao pushed Lin Hong up to the high pavilion slowly, and ordered someone to take it again. He covered Lin Hong's legs with a thick mattress, poured hot tea himself, and sat in the pavilion with Lin Hong and his wife to watch the moon and talk.

Lin Hong was still thinking about Qiao's words just now. He drank the hot tea, and his heart was warm, but it made him feel something else.

"Madam just said it's a pity for the girl Xiaojian likes, does Madam know something?"

Lin Hongdao, "These days, I see Madam's expression is normal, as if she is not worried at all that Xiao Jian likes a girl from a good family, but now Madam is so sure that Xiao Jian likes a good girl, and she also says that Xiao Jian will marry her." A good marriage, could it be that Madam asked Xiao Jian privately without telling me, and found out who Xiao Jian's sweetheart is?"

Qiao Shi couldn't help laughing when she heard the words: "Why should I press the question? Xiao Jian has already made it very clear that day, so I just have to say the girl's name."

"Master has never paid attention to these things. If you still remember Xiao Jian's words, you might as well think about it carefully. Put those words in place, and you will naturally know who that girl is."

Lin Hong put down the teacup, frowned in thought, and realized after a while: "This brat! How dare he play tricks in front of his father!"

Lin Hong didn't say this for many years, but now when he got excited, the gangster spirit in the barracks quietly came out again.

Lin Hong was very upset: "Ma'am, this brat is taking advantage of others! I let him watch Miss Gu Lin, why did he have such perverted thoughts about other girls!"

Qiao's brows were calm: "Master, don't be angry. Xiao Jian has been such an unscrupulous temper since he was a child, but I don't think he has been very presumptuous in front of Miss Lin. I knew he was serious when I heard his voice that day. Yes, otherwise, how could he not even mention Miss Lin in front of us? He is also unwilling to bear the reputation of taking advantage of others, and he is also afraid of Miss Lin. unwilling."

"He just said hello to us in secret. How can this admiration for a good girl be considered perverted? Mrs. Lin has seen it before. Who wouldn't like such a good girl?"

"Besides, I asked on the sidelines today. Miss Lin didn't know anything, and Xiaojian didn't talk nonsense in front of her. The two of them got along very well. I think Xiaojian is still very measured. And Miss Lin, too. Trust him."

After Qiao's words, Lin Hong's face became brighter: "I heard what Madam said, every word is for that stinky boy, does Madam mean to accommodate Xiao Jian's thoughts and agree to this marriage? "

Qiao said frankly: "I'll tell you the truth, I really like Miss Lin very much, and I think Xiao Jian is a good match for her. But whether the two of them can get along, we have to wait and see. Our family will take care of Miss Lin. Don't do things that are difficult for others, if she doesn't want to, I will never allow Xiaojian to make things difficult for her."

"It's just that a place like Jia's Mansion is not suitable for her to live for a long time. If she can come to live in our house and become our daughter-in-law, we will protect her and take care of her. Would the master not want to?"

Hearing this, Lin Hong thought of Lin Ruhai, and his breath softened for a moment. He sighed: "Miss Lin is a good girl who is cherished by others. If Xiaojian can really treat her well, and she is willing to be close to our family, this marriage Naturally it's great."

"It's just that Mr. Lin has just left, and Miss Lin has a filial piety. It may take some time for these two children to achieve good things!"

Qiao said with a smile: "As long as the hearts are the same, it's okay to wait a little longer to get married. Let's not add chaos to it, so as not to let them waste time in vain."

Lin Hong was silent when he heard the words.

In order to get him to answer correctly, Qiao simply made the words more clear: "The master has never paid much attention to these trivial thoughts, and the female lover here did not pay much attention in the past. If it were not for the master, the two of us would not have paid much attention to it in the early years. As for wasting years to get married."

"The eldest brother and the second child have different temperaments, but they are the same as the master in this regard. They each have their own ideas not to fight for each other, and it took some time to get married. Xiao Jian is different from the master in this point. He is an extremely A child with a mind, seeing how he treats Miss Lin, he knows that he is determined to treat her well. Holding her in the palm of his hand and loving her like this, Miss Lin will be our daughter-in-law sooner or later. I just want the two children to be free If we can get along with each other for a while, I will be satisfied if I can get married at their best age. Master, let's not add trouble."

Lin Hong snorted coldly: "Madame looks down on me too much. Even if I don't understand the style, would I still be the villain who destroys people's marriages? I don't care. Madam has a delicate mind. With Madam around, I will only do this matter." It's over as if you didn't see it!"

Lin Hong was angry and unhappy, but Mrs. Qiao knew that he agreed with what he said, so she smiled softly, and stretched out her hand to caress Lin Hong's face, her eyes were full of quiet love accumulated over the years.

Lin Jian sent Lin Daiyu back to Jia's mansion.

This time he did not enter the garden, it was getting late, and it was inconvenient for him to go in alone, so he sent Lin Daiyu to the gate of the mansion, watched Lin Daiyu go in, and after a while, he heard the servant of Jia's mansion reply that Lin Daiyu had arrived Xiaoxiang Pavilion, he turned and left.

Lin Daiyu went back to the Xiaoxiang Hall, it was getting late, so Zijuan helped her wash and change her clothes.

Lin Daiyu changed into homely clothes, her hair loosened, and leaned on the couch to let Xueyan take out the things she brought back today and tidy them up.

Zijuan watched the little girls tidy up the clean room and sent them away. When they came out, they saw Lin Daiyu talking to Xueyan.

Zijuan said: "The girl is tired after traveling all day. It's not too early now. Why don't you take a rest first. These things won't break if they are left alone. Why don't you tidy them up tomorrow? Tomorrow I will bring the snow geese and the others together." Clean up for the girl in the same way."

Lin Daiyu brought back a lot of things, all of which were gifts from Mrs. Qiao. There were many kinds of gifts, and there were all kinds of things. They had to be moved by several people.

Lin Daiyu seemed to be in a good mood, she said with a slight smile, "Zicuckoo, I'm not sleepy, I just want to sit around for a while. You go and wash up, and I'll rest when you're all cleaned up."

"I know there are a lot of things, and I can't finish tidying them up in a while, so let Xueyan tidy up first, and tidy up as much as you can."

Seeing that Lin Daiyu was really in good spirits, Zijuan was afraid of spoiling Lin Daiyu's interest, so she didn't persuade her any more, and went to wash herself at Lin Daiyu's words.

Here Lin Daiyu looked at Xueyan and asked her while she was packing her things: "You stay in the house, is there anyone looking for me today?"

Xueyan is a little younger than Zijuan, and two years younger than Lin Daiyu, and now she still has a childish face. When she saw Lin Daiyu asking her, she immediately stopped what she was doing, and ran to Lin Daiyu's desk to spread a letter of gold. The azure post was brought and handed over to Lin Daiyu.

"No one came today, only the sister who served as the secretary came. Ask me to show this to the girl when she comes back."

As Xueyan said, she went to pack her things again.

Lin Daiyu opened the post in her hand and took a closer look. The corners of her mouth could not help but a slight smile appeared on her face.

Zijuan was afraid that Lin Daiyu would tell Xueyan not to do it alone, so she tidied herself up as quickly as possible and saw Lin Daiyu smiling faintly holding the post.

"What is the third girl posting for the girl? Could it be that she is asking the girl to compose poetry again?"

Lin Daiyu nodded lightly, and put the post in her hand on the small table beside the couch: "Tan girl said that the poetry club did not have a good time at the crab banquet last time, and when the weather is good in a few days, the poetry club will be opened again, please sisters We used to compose poems and have fun. Autumn is the harvest season, and sister-in-law Zhu's several acres of rice harvest is abundant, and sister-in-law Zhu is the host, and together with Tan girl, we are invited to meet in her Daoxiang village."

Zijuan had something to say when she heard this, but she looked up and saw Xueyan here, thinking that Xueyan was young and didn't want to talk about these things in front of her, so she found an excuse to send Xueyan out, and Zijuan personally Going to pack up things, the party also talked to Lin Daiyu.

"There are rumors outside that Old General Lin refuses to let Marquis Lin get married early, no matter who it is, he will not let Marquis Lin get married within the next two years. Old General Lin will not let go, and the old lady's plan will naturally come to an end. Empty. Aunt Zhao is such a restless person. These days, she feels ashamed and doesn’t walk around in the mansion. Now the garden is doing well on the surface, but who doesn’t talk about these things behind the scenes? The third girl doesn’t say to avoid the limelight, how can she still How about asking the girls to get together and write poetry?"

Lin Daiyu was lazily leaning on the couch, and when she heard the words, she smiled lightly: "Tan girl is the same as Sister Feng, she is a strong person. However, Tan girl has read more books than Sister Feng, so this person is smarter than Sister Feng There are too many. At this time, blindly hiding is not an option. Anyway, it has been rumored, so it is better to come out and let everyone see that she has not been affected in any way. Anyway, it is not once or twice that Tan Yatou has been dragged down by Aunt Zhao over the years , she can stand it."

"It's fine for the third girl to be brave, but this poem..."

Zijuan took a look at the post, and her complexion suddenly changed a few times, "Third Miss also invited Second Master Bao over, Miss, let's not go."

"When composing poems in public, it's inevitable that Second Lord Bao will know. If the same thing happens again, the girl will find it difficult to deal with herself. These days, Second Master Bao is not allowed to come in because he has to go to school, so he often lets Musk Moon come in quietly to see the girl. Sending things and passing words, they are constantly entangled, if the girl goes, there will inevitably be another entanglement. The girl should stay away."
