[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle

The second day of the wedding, early in the morning.

Lin Qing woke up leisurely on the bed, and saw that the sky outside the window was still not bright, and she was about to turn over and squint for a while, but unexpectedly, she smelled a faint fragrance, and all the things that happened last night suddenly appeared, Lin Qing was so startled that she lost her drowsiness , Yiji Ling directly climbed up from the bed.

Shen Jiao, who was dressing up, heard the movement, and hurriedly stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Lin Qing.

I saw him sitting on the bed blankly, with a blank expression, and looked at the end of the bed with dazed eyes.

"Master, what's the matter?" Shen Jiao walked to the bed and sat down, asking with concern.

As Shenjiao approached, Lin Qing smelled the unique warm fragrance on her body again, which was more intense than before, lingering like a cloud, stirring the heartstrings.

Although the two had the closest contact last night, in order to avoid embarrassment, Lin Qing deliberately made herself slightly drunk before entering the bridal chamber, so as to blur her consciousness. …

Seeing that Lin Qing's face was flushed, Shen Jiao thought that he drank too much last night and felt uncomfortable, so he put his hand on his forehead to see if he had a fever.

Lin Qing's hot face suddenly came into contact with the back of her warm hand, and goosebumps arose immediately, and she hurriedly took off the hand that was stuck to her forehead, but she was too nervous, and instead of letting go of Shenjiao's hand, On the contrary, it became tighter and tighter.

Shen Jiao's wrist hurt from being held by him, her brows furrowed unconsciously, and she was about to cry out in pain, but Lin Qing sensed her strangeness, and hurriedly let go.

He coughed a few times to cover up, "Are you okay?"

Shenjiao moved his wrists, shook his head, "It's nothing." Seeing that it was already bright outside the window, he asked, "Master, do you want to get up?"

Lin Qing nodded, "Get up."

Lin Family Ancestral Hall.

Led by Lin Ruhai, Shen Jiao followed behind Lin Qing, and the three of them knelt down in front of the altar in order, offering incense three times and offering wine three times.

As a bride, Shenjiao had to go out alone and perform four prostrations to the ancestors. After the prostrations, she returned to her original position, and then the three of them prostrated together twice.

After the ceremony, goodbye "in-laws".

Since the Lin family has no elders, some are distant relatives, so "elder brother is like father", Lin Ruhai plays the role of elder.

On this day, the bride's family will prepare meals and bring them to the son-in-law's house.

When Lin Ruhai was seated, Shenjiao made another four prostrations.

The entourage held the food table and gave the food to Shen Jiao, and Shen Jiao offered the food to Lin Ruhai. After Lin Ruhai tasted it, the entourage removed the food, and Shen Jiao bowed four more times.

In this way, the etiquette is considered complete.

Shen Jiao really became the wife of the Lin family, and became the head mother of the Lin family who was hired by three media and six people.

On the third day of the wedding, Gui Ning.

Lin Qing and Shen Jiao came to Fuguo General's Mansion in a carriage.

There are already people outside the house to welcome them.

Lin Qing got out of the carriage first, and Shen Jiao also lowered his head to get out of the carriage. He was habitually preparing to help the hand of the maid beside him down, so he might as well be supported by another strong hand first. When he looked up suspiciously, it was Lin Qing.

Shen Jiao smiled and helped Lin Qing get out of the car.

The two walked from outside the mansion to the inner courtyard, Lin Qing looked all the way over, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: This general looks at Weihe from the outside, why is it so simple inside?

It's fine for the servants to dress simply, and even most of the facilities in the mansion are extremely low-key, like the furniture placed outside, it can be seen at a glance that they are handmade.It's not that handmade is not good, but since it's handmade, practicality comes first, and beauty comes second.

However, he didn't know that because of today's Guining, everyone in the General's Mansion had already put on new clothes. If they changed to the previous style, it would be more "simple"!

In fact, it is understandable for Lin Qing to have such an idea, because he subconsciously regards the Jia Mansion as a reference.Although the wealth and honor of Jia's mansion is not top-notch in the capital where princes and nobles are everywhere, comparing it with the general's mansion, which has always upheld the style of hard work and simplicity, is tantamount to reducing the dimension.

However, although few servants were seen, the inside and outside of the place were cleaned very cleanly, and there was a sense of neatness and solemnity in the whole, which made people feel a little respect for the owner of this mansion for no reason.

main hall.

Shen Fang and Shen Gui are waiting for them.

From a distance, Lin Qing saw a middle-aged man in fine attire sitting at the main seat, with Shen Gui standing next to him. Lin Qing guessed that it must be Shen Fang.Thinking about meeting Mr. Yue Zhang soon, Lin Qing was inexplicably nervous, but she still calmed down and didn't make herself too flustered.

When they got to the front of the hall, Lin Qing and Shen Jiao stood still, and Shen Jiao called "Daddy" and "Big Brother" first, and Lin Qing hurriedly called back.

This time, due to the close distance, Lin Qing finally saw Shen Fang clearly.Surprisingly, Shen Fang, as a general killed from a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood, has a bookish air all over his body, and his expression is also dignified and refined, with the demeanor of a Confucian general.However, that was only on the surface, and upon closer inspection, one could see the cruelty beneath the elegant appearance, especially the sharp and vicious eyes.Presumably it's because he's getting older, and he hasn't been on the battlefield for a long time, so the murderous aura on his body is gradually covered up.

Looking at Shen Fang like this, Lin Qing always felt that his face was very similar to that of a certain important person described in history, but he couldn't remember who it was.

The two paid a visit to Shen Fang. Shen Fang first said a few polite words, and then gave Shen Gui a wink.

Shen Gui understood, hurried to the back, and after a while, came over with something in his hand.

"It's the first time you come back home, and I don't have anything good for you." He said, motioning Shen Gui to hand over the things to Lin Qing, "This is the work of Master Wang, known as the 'best running script in the world', which is hard to come by. , I hope you cherish it."

"Thank you father-in-law." Lin Qing respectfully accepted it.

Because they still had to go to the palace to meet Concubine Xian, the couple had lunch at Shen's house and then rushed to the palace.

Royal Palace.

Concubine Xian sent someone to clean up the good people inside and outside the Xianfu Palace long ago. Shenjiao is her niece in name, but in reality she is no different from her own daughter. It can be seen as a "daughter" returning to the door.

Concubine Xian also specially took Daiyu over from Zhongcui Palace. Daiyu and Shenjiao have now become a family.Of course, Concubine Xian also wanted Daiyu and Shenjiao to get along well. Although the two had known each other for a long time, this was Shenjiao's first contact with Daiyu as Lin's wife. She still hoped that the two could get along well. We have a good impression of each other.

The fifth princess is also there, and she has a good relationship with Shenjiao. The most important thing is that she likes this festive atmosphere very much.Recently, because of Concubine Zhen, the atmosphere in the palace has been very oppressive, and finally there is something happy, and she also wants to be happy.

Shen Jiao and Lin Qing first went to Zhongcui Palace to visit Concubine Kang because they were instructed by Concubine Xian.

Concubine Kang saw that the little girl she had seen since she was a child was now married to someone else, she had mixed feelings in her heart, she was quite aloof, but at this moment she was crying with Shen Jiao.

Yes, that's right, it's a broken heart.

Looking at Lin Qing who was standing far away outside the bead curtain, he was inexplicable. Is he a poisonous snake or a beast or a jackal?How could concubine Kang be so heartbroken by marrying him?

Lin Qing didn't know the inside story, but Shen Jiao knew it, so she has been patiently comforting Concubine Kang. Seeing this, Nanny Li next to her hurriedly reminded Concubine Kang for fear of Lin Qing's embarrassment.

Concubine Kang lost her composure because she was poked at a sore spot in her heart. After being reminded by Nanny Li, she gradually calmed down, but she still held Shenjiao's hand and refused to let go. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said emotionally : "After entering the palace later, don't forget to come and see Kang Niangniang."

Shenjiao nodded, "Ying'er knows."

Concubine Kang's eyelashes were filled with tears, but she still held back, caressed Shen Jiao's cheeks a few times lovingly, and then gave Nanny Li a wink.

Nanny Li understood, and took out a small box the size of a palm and handed it to Concubine Kang.

Concubine Kang handed it to Shenjiao, "Take it."

"This is the relic of Empress Dowager Wenhuan, named 'Wenliang Inkstone'. It takes a hundred years to make one piece. It is very precious. In front of it, an ordinary Liangyan inkstone is a vulgar thing, no different from a stone."

Shenjiao grew up in the palace and had heard about this legendary queen mother. Now that she heard that this thing was her relic, she dared not accept it at all. things? This, this is too expensive, I can't accept it."

However, she just wanted to return the box to Concubine Kang, but she might as well hold it down, "My good boy, take it quickly, this is a good thing." Concubine Kang lowered her voice, "The ink developed by Wen Liangyan can hang a checkmate. The last breath of a woman is a life-saving 'good medicine' passed down from family to family, we women have to go through the gate of hell after giving birth, and if you have it, you can have an extra layer of security in future childbirth."

These words unknowingly coincided with the secret in Shenjiao's heart, and after struggling in his heart, he finally accepted it.

Before the two of them went to Xianfu Palace, Concubine Kang did not forget to "discipline" Lin Qing, to the effect that he should treat Shen Jiao well in the future, and also expressed good wishes for their marriage.

Xianfu Palace.

Concubine Xian and her party had been waiting for a long time, and when they saw someone coming, they hurriedly pulled Shen Jiao back and talked a lot.

Lin Qing was still sitting far away outside the bead curtain alone. Lin Qing had pretty good eyesight, even if she sat far away, she could still see the scene inside the bead curtain clearly. Of course, she couldn't see the face clearly.

On this occasion, Daiyu should be there, he guessed.

only……

Lin Qing squinted her eyes and looked intently, why are there two little girls?

They are about the same size, and they are all dressed in brocade clothes. They don't look like maids.

Inside the bead curtain, Concubine Xian held Shenjiao for a while and asked for warmth, while Fifth Princess and Daiyu sat next to each other.

Concubine Xian took Shenjiao and talked affectionately about them as wives. The two little girls couldn't understand and were not interested in listening, so they whispered to each other.

The fifth princess observed Shenjiao for a while, and then quietly pulled La Daiyu's fairy to straighten her sleeves, "Hey, tell me, is there anything different about Sister Shen?"

When Daiyu heard this, she frowned and looked carefully, "Well, she's more gentle, her skin is much ruddy, her brows are stretched, and the rest..., I don't see it."

When the fifth princess heard Daiyu's "change", she couldn't help laughing secretly, and whispered in Daiyu's ear for a while, making Daiyu's face flush with embarrassment, and raised her fist in shame and anger to beat her, while the fifth princess laughed. dodge.

The first two were arguing, and the other aunt and nephew had finished making out, so they called Daiyu, "Wu'er, come here quickly."

Concubine Xian waved to Daiyu who was sitting beside her.

Daiyu walked to Concubine Xian, "Your Majesty."

Concubine Xian nodded in satisfaction, then took Daiyu's hand, put it on Shenjiao's hand, then covered the two's hands tightly with her own hands, and said lovingly to the two: "From now on, we will be a family. , remember to live in harmony.”

Daiyu and Shenjiao looked at each other, and they were a little awkward with each other, but this was just a dull sense of identity. Out of a certain tacit understanding, the two finally looked at each other and smiled.

Concubine Xian also smiled gratifiedly when she saw their small movements: Yes, it seems to be a good start.

Concubine Xian did not forget Lin Qing who was sitting outside the bead curtain, and called Lin Qing to a position closer to the bead curtain.

"Then Lin Erlang is there?"

Lin Qing bowed his head and bowed respectfully, "Go back to your mother, the minister is here."

Concubine Xian said earnestly and earnestly: "My dear child, you and Ying'er are married, and you will have to share the joys and sorrows together. As an aunt, I don't ask for anything else. Everything is negotiated. However, 'no complaints can't make a husband and wife', you two are young couples, you are both young and energetic, there will inevitably be friction at the beginning, this is normal, even the teeth sometimes bite the tongue, let alone people ? But as time goes by, a lifetime will pass.”

"Husband and wife are one body, one prospers and the other loses. In the future, we must be considerate of each other before we can go far. Do you two remember this truth?"

When Lin Qing first heard this, to be honest, she was at a loss, but at the same time she was full of emotions.In fact, he has not yet fully realized the psychological transformation. For example, he is no longer just Lin Ruhai's younger brother and Daiyu's uncle. He is also Shenjiao's husband, and he is responsible for the rest of her life.

In fact, Lin Qing agreed to this marriage at the beginning out of various weighing pros and cons, and strictly speaking, this marriage was decided by himself, it was not "the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker" at all!In other words, he sees it as a trade-off.

But now, Concubine Xian's words are no different from a sobering dose to Lin Qing, bringing him back to reality from fantasy: it turns out that marriage is not as simple as weighing the pros and cons, nor is it a transaction, it requires the parties to pay their hearts and their lives... …
