[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle
Chapter 26 Autumn
On this day, it happened to be my turn to go on vacation without going to school.
Daiyu followed Nanny Li to learn the etiquette rules among noble ladies, as well as the code of conduct in socializing with each other.
Daiyu's mind is sensitive and intelligent, so she learns quickly.
Although Nanny Li was extremely strict, she also praised Daiyu in front of Concubine Kang.
Concubine Kang has never cared about these things. It's good to learn well, but she won't blame too much if she can't.
The reason why she raised Daiyu was nothing more than entrusted by the Holy Majesty to give her a place to live.
She will send someone to teach the county owner what she should learn, and she will never treat her badly in material terms.
But that's about it.
Daiyu stayed in Zhongcui Palace for so many days, which really opened her eyes. At first she thought Jia's mansion was a very wealthy family, but after arriving in the palace, she realized that "there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky".
Even the palace where the concubines live is more "rich" and "expensive" than Jia's mansion.
Concubine Kang is not a meddler, her palace rules are strict, and there is no need to say that the upper and lower ranks are clearly defined. Daiyu is also the head of the county proclaimed by the Holy Majesty. In addition, the Holy Majesty has made some deliberate actions, so that all the princesses and princesses regard Daiyu as a princess. Fellowship of persons of equal status.
Therefore, while Daiyu enjoyed better material conditions than Jia's, she also gained more respect than in Jia's.
At least no one will ridicule her as an "orphan girl" openly or secretly, or embarrass her with some small tricks that are not on the table.
In fact, if it is about climbing high and stepping low, is there any place in the world that compares with the imperial palace?
It's just that there are more snobbish eyes in the palace and more smart people.
Although Daiyu is the daughter of a foreign official, she is the majesty's own county head, which is a special kind of grace, and it is different from those who are named county heads by blood, which represents the importance the majesty has for the Lin family.
The head of Tong'an County only has an outgoing father and a young uncle who is studying in the family, and there are no other female elders.Now the Holy Majesty specially asked Concubine Kang to educate her personally, thinking that the Holy Majesty had already arranged a family for her.
Although I don't know which family's son the Holy Majesty has appointed her, but according to the current value that the Holy Majesty places on the Lin family, the family that the Tong'an County Lord will marry in the future must be extremely prominent and wealthy.
There are many people in the palace, and the princesses and princesses have to be reminded by the elders in the family. Peace is always the most important thing. After understanding this, they are even more kind to Daiyu.
Think about it too, 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi.
Besides the royal family, who can guarantee that their power and wealth will last forever?
It's better to form a good relationship with her earlier, after all, there are many friends and many paths, and it may not be clear who asks whom in the future.
Speaking of which, there are only four princesses in the Holy Majesty.
The Eldest Princess is born of the Empress, she is the eldest daughter and the eldest, and her status is the most noble. Because she got married early, she doesn't live in the palace.
The fourth princess is weak and sick, and doesn't show up often. At first, she went to school for three days fishing and two days drying nets.The Holy Majesty felt sorry for his daughter, so he simply refused to let her go to school in person, and chose a well-educated female teacher to teach her alone.
The fifth princess is actually two years older than Daiyu, and her body is not bad, but her mother and concubine have a low status and passed away early, so Zhang Jieyu has been raising her on her behalf.
Although Zhang Jieyu was not favored either, she was valued by Concubine Zhen.In his spare time, he took the five princesses to serve beside the concubine, so that the concubine, who had no children, enjoyed some family happiness.
As for the sixth princess, she is only a five-year-old child, and she is not with Daiyu and others.
Therefore, although Daiyu was called to go to school with the princesses and princesses, she only had to meet the five princesses and one royal princess.
Although the fifth princess is not as honorable as the eldest princess, and she is not as favored by the emperor as the fourth princess, she is a very lovely and enthusiastic girl.
Seeing that Daiyu also lost her mother early and was fostered elsewhere, one can't help but feel "sympathetic" towards Daiyu. Seeing that Daiyu is a talented and intelligent woman, she is very happy to get close to her.
Although the other young ladies get along well with Daiyu, but because they have known each other for a short time and they didn't grow up together, they are more than polite and not intimate enough. Only these five princesses are big-hearted, and they take the initiative to show kindness everywhere, and they just want to make friends with each other. Daiyu is a friend.
Daiyu has an exquisite mind, and she is happy to see it succeed.
In fact, Daiyu didn't like the too cold days. Although the days in Jia's house were not very happy, but she was accompanied by her sisters and sisters, so she didn't feel lonely and bored.
Later, when I returned to my own home, I felt comfortable, but it was also very boring to be stuck in the house all day without a playmate.
Before coming to the palace, she had been as uneasy as when she first entered Jia's mansion. It was not because she was afraid of too many rules, but because she was afraid that she would not do well enough to be looked down upon, which would damage her father's reputation.
Fortunately, this palace is different from that of Jia's Mansion. There are so many rules and strict discipline. The Zhongcui Palace is also governed by Concubine Kang like an iron bucket. Everyone performs their own duties. Such a scene of gossiping, doing nothing, and making jokes.
Although Daiyu felt that she was quite restrained in her actions here, she was much more relaxed mentally than in Jia's mansion.In addition, there is the fifth princess as a playmate by my side, so I won't be lonely in my spare time.
The fifth princess is lively and active, and she will come to Zhongcui Palace to invite Daiyu out to play if she has nothing to do.
Concubine Kang did not object, she had always treated Daiyu as a pet, as long as she did not violate the palace rules, did not hurt herself, and reported to the nanny who took care of her when she went in and out, and let the nanny know her whereabouts.
This time, the fifth princess invited Daiyu to play on the swing in the imperial garden.
For noble ladies like the fifth princess and Daiyu who have been trapped at home for a long time, swinging on the swing is tantamount to "releasing the wind".
Moreover, the swing in the imperial garden swings quite high and far away.
But it's not for sitting and swinging, but for people to stand up and swing.
It is said that as long as the pusher is strong enough, and the swing is high enough and far enough, the people on the swing frame can see the scenery outside the palace.
Of course, just heard.
Who dares to push these delicate and expensive masters and ladies so hard?If something happened, a hundred heads would not be enough to chop off.
"Wu'er, have you ever played on a swing before?"
The fifth princess was walking with Daiyu on the way to the imperial garden, and while chatting, she suddenly asked Daiyu who was beside her.
Daiyu smiled apologetically when she heard this, "I have been weak since I was a child, and I can't bear too much wind and fright, so..."
When the fifth princess heard this, she thought she had hit Daiyu's heartache, and hurriedly said: "It's okay. When you get to the Imperial Garden, you should stand far away and watch me swing."
After thinking about it, I felt that it was wrong, and added: "Actually, there is nothing to play on the swing."
"I've only swung a few times, but I can't swing at all. I don't know if the pusher didn't have enough to eat or what. Not to mention seeing the scene outside the palace, I can see the ants on the ground clearly. It's boring. very."
Daiyu didn't answer, just listened quietly, occasionally smiling softly.
Daiyu originally had a beautiful face like Xizi, but due to years of illness, her complexion was a little paler than ordinary people. Although she passed the time comfortably, she still didn't develop a temperament that loves to laugh, so she occasionally inadvertently The smiling faces on display will give people a sense of sight as if the ice and snow have just melted.
Seeing it makes me feel pity, and I yearn for it.
Who doesn't love nice things?
Even if the fifth princess is not favored, she is still a real princess of the royal family, who can let her put down her status and respect and take the initiative to show her favor. The similar background is one aspect, and more importantly, Daiyu's extremely outstanding appearance.
Just at this moment, the fifth princess was chatting on her own, and accidentally caught a glimpse of Daiyu's peaceful appearance, and felt dumbfounded.
"Wu'er, you look so pretty when you smile."
When Daiyu heard this, she was very happy in her heart, but she still bowed her body and replied with a smile, "Thanks to the princess for her praise, the princess is also very beautiful."
The fifth princess has a straightforward temperament, and she didn't say much. She hugged Daiyu's right hand directly, bowed her head and admired Daiyu's face, and said seriously: "I mean it. Wu'er, you are indeed me. Among the people I've seen, the ones with the best looks."
At the end, he frowned again, looked at Daiyu carefully again, and murmured: "However, I always feel like you are alone."
"Hiss, unfortunately, I can't remember who it is at the moment."
While speaking, we arrived at the Imperial Garden.
At this time, at the turn of spring and summer, the flowers in the imperial garden are half-opened, and the air is infiltrated with the fragrance of various flowers.
Daiyu was arranged by the fifth princess to sit at a stone table far away from the swing stand, while she took several court ladies and eunuchs to a distant swing stand.
After standing still on the swing frame, he smiled and waved vigorously to Daiyu who was not far away.
It means that she is about to start swinging, so Daiyu is ready to watch.
The friendship between girls is the most wonderful. Although Daiyu has only been with the fifth princess for a few months, she can somehow understand some of the body language of the fifth princess.
Just like now, Daiyu smiled and nodded in response, indicating that she knew.
As for the fifth princess, she was overjoyed to receive Daiyu's response, and immediately asked the maids behind her to start pushing her.
One, two, three.
Although the court lady didn't dare to use too much force, the swing still started to move due to inertia, and the fifth princess herself was also quietly exerting force, so the swing of the swing was getting bigger and bigger.
Standing on it, the fifth princess squinted her eyes slightly, feeling that she was breaking through the shackles of the wind step by step, and her heart moved with the swing of the swing, and her mood improved a lot unconsciously.
After swinging for a while, the fifth princess excitedly ran to Daiyu, grabbed her hand, and told her feelings and joy when she was on the swing just now.
Daiyu still listened with a smile on her face, and with her other free hand, she wiped the sweat from the forehead of the fifth princess carefully.
Although Zhang Jieyu has never treated her badly materially, how has she ever been so intimate with her like Daiyu, so after being cared for so carefully by Daiyu, the fifth princess felt her nose sore, and hurriedly grabbed Daiyu to wipe her sweat hand, and said deeply: "Wu'er, you are so kind and gentle. Whoever marries you in the future will be a blessing in eight lifetimes!"
Girls are thin-skinned, and not everyone is as skinny and shameless as the fifth princess, so Daiyu couldn't help blushing when she heard the words, and pulled out her hand that was held by the fifth princess, then turned her head away, and said angrily : "Hmph, I was kind enough to wipe your sweat for you, but you made fun of me like this and ignored you."
Seeing Daiyu like this, the fifth princess hurriedly coaxed: "Okay, okay! It's my fault, it's all my fault, okay? Good girl, don't ignore me."
Daiyu was joking with her, so she changed her mind after being coaxed by her.
And the fifth princess wholeheartedly regards Daiyu as a good friend, thinking of the joy she had when she was on the swing just now, she also wants Daiyu to experience her own happiness.
After hearing this, Daiyu refused. She was afraid that the action would be too big, and she panicked again.
However, the fifth princess is determined to let her try it, because she was really happy when she was swinging just now, so she really wants her friends to try it too.
Of course, she was also concerned about Daiyu's body, so she patted her chest to promise that she would not let others push her, but pushed her herself, and with a very small force, she would never be hurt.
Daiyu is also innocent, so it's not that she doesn't want to play, she just cares about her own body, now she is persuaded by the fifth princess and given her guarantee, she can't help being shaken.
In the end, she couldn't hold back the fifth princess, so she agreed to give it a try.
Seeing that Daiyu agreed, the fifth princess was ecstatic, so she drove away the maid who was about to push the swing, and pushed it for Daiyu herself.
But the five princesses were quite measured, they only pushed Daiyu slightly, making the swing swing in a very small range, so small that Daiyu would not fall even if she jumped off.
As for Daiyu, it was the first time since entering the palace to look at the surroundings from this perspective. She raised her head slightly, squinted her eyes, and felt the breeze with the fragrance of flowers brushing her cheeks.
For a moment, her clothes fluttered and her long hair danced lightly, like a fairy...
Suddenly, the swing stopped.
Just when Daiyu opened her eyes in confusion, she bumped into a pair of pupils full of smiles.
Daiyu followed Nanny Li to learn the etiquette rules among noble ladies, as well as the code of conduct in socializing with each other.
Daiyu's mind is sensitive and intelligent, so she learns quickly.
Although Nanny Li was extremely strict, she also praised Daiyu in front of Concubine Kang.
Concubine Kang has never cared about these things. It's good to learn well, but she won't blame too much if she can't.

But that's about it.
