[Red Chamber] I am Lin Daiyu and her uncle

Snowflakes fell profusely and fell on the buildings below, making the whole world covered in silver.

Above the attic.

The boy in the golden python robe and Yibiyaner are confronting each other on the chessboard, perhaps they have come to the 'end of the road', the brows of the boy with blue eyes are getting tighter and tighter, it is obviously a cold winter with heavy snow, but there is a bruise on his forehead. There was a dense layer of sweat, and the right hand holding the white piece was raised and lowered, obviously helpless.

The boy in the boa robe waited patiently, took a cup of hot tea from the attendant and drank it slowly, looking at Bi Yan'er who was opposite him.

After struggling for a while, the blue-eyed boy finally put down the white piece in his hand and said discouragedly: "I lost."

The boy in the boa robe smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and slowly retrieved all the black and white pieces on the chessboard.

The blue-eyed boy thought that he would drag him to play again, so he hurriedly begged for mercy: "Fifth brother! I, I don't want to play anymore, I can't beat you, and I can't win any more games, you..." The blue-eyed boy caught a glimpse of the standing Shui Rong by the railing suddenly found a life-saving straw, pointed at Shui Rong and said, "You go to Xiaohuangshu! Xiaohuangshu is also very good at chess, playing with him is much more interesting than playing with me, a stinky chess basket! "

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away and disappeared.

Xia Zhen glanced at the direction Xia Lu left, shook his head helplessly, and continued with his finishing work.

This kid can't hold his breath.

Obviously he was begging and pestering him, insisting on playing with him, how many games did he lose?Just panic like this.

"Shui Rong, what are you looking at?"

While Xia Zhen lowered his head to tidy up, he still didn't forget to strike up a conversation with Shui Rong who was standing not far away.

"It's nothing." Shui Rong returned to the pavilion, took a few sips of a cup of hot tea at hand, "Today's snow scene is pretty good."

"You have a good mood." Xia Zhen smiled and said: "Did you hear what Xiao Liu just said? You are a master, let's play a few games when you are free?"

Shui Rong also smiled: "Listen to his nonsense! Who in the whole capital has ever played you? I'm not going to make fun of myself."

After Xia Zhen cleaned up the chessboard, he washed his hands in the basin filled with clean water handed over by the attendant, and then dried them with dry and delicate paper, before walking slowly to the place where Shui Rong was standing just now.

The two people wearing red cloaks below were having a lively snowball fight. Although the distance was a bit far, Xia Zhen had good eyesight and could tell at a glance that one of them was her fifth younger sister. Identity, after all, they have only met once.

"I thought you were fascinated by something, but it turned out to be her!"

"Huh?" Shui Rong looked at Xia Zhen in confusion.

Xia Zhen also looked back at him, "Lin Ruhai's only daughter, the county lord of Tong'an."

"It's her..." Shui Rong frowned and thought for a while, "I thought it was the maid of the plum garden."

Back then the Fifth Princess took Daiyu and sneaked out, in order to avoid the eyes and ears of the public, she wore the cloaks of court ladies. Shui Rong hadn't seen Xia Yi much before, so she mistook them for a court lady.

"Lady of the palace?" Xia Zhen was a little surprised, "Your eyes are not good, a princess, a county lord, a dignified noble lady, even if she changes her clothes, she won't be completely invisible."

Xia Zhen Shiran returned to his seat, "But you are also destined to get married, and God arranged such a chance encounter for the two of you, which shows that it is a 'best match from God'."

Shui Rong also felt that it was a coincidence, and the weirdest thing was that he had a sense of deja vu familiarity with that Miss Lin family.

It seems... where have I seen it?

"How do you know she is Lin Ruhai's daughter?"

"At the beginning, the county magistrate of Tong'an was taken into the palace for a period of time, and I had a relationship with her in the Royal Garden. At that time, she was still childish. Although her appearance has changed a little now, she can vaguely see the shadow of the past. .”

After finishing speaking, Chong Shuirong winked and said teasingly: "Uncle Huang, you are blessed. Listen to my cousin Ying, this Miss Lin is not only beautiful, but also has a great literary talent. Dear scholars, when you get married in the future, don't you want to raise your eyebrows and envy others?"

Shui Rong knew that he wanted to see her embarrassed appearance, so she only said vaguely: "The girl is still young, it's too early to say such things."

……

The two who were having a snowball fight below were also 'invited' back by the maid sent by Concubine Xian, saying that there was a big happy event to be announced.

Kunning Palace.

"I've seen my mother."

Princess Jincheng greeted the queen with a smile, and the queen waved hurriedly, "Good boy, what are you doing with the queen mother? Quick, come here to the queen mother."

"Yes." Princess Jincheng walked slowly to the queen and sat down.

The queen hadn't seen her daughter for a long time, she took Princess Jincheng's hand and looked at her carefully for a long time before she choked up and said, "I lost weight."

Jin Cheng was a little helpless: "I should be fat. I am pregnant now, and I eat for two, and my movements are much more cumbersome."

The queen was overjoyed, "My son is pregnant! When did it happen? Why didn't you tell the queen mother? Hey, you girl is really ignorant. You only saluted when you were pregnant. Don't you mean to make the queen mother feel bad?"

Princess Jincheng was like leaning on the queen when she was a child, caressing her belly, smiling with maternal brilliance, "It's been more than three months. I'm also a third-year person now. I was pregnant many times before, but I didn't keep it every time. This time she was pregnant, so the son-in-law asked the abbot of Xiangguo Temple how to keep the child. The abbot said that he would have to be pregnant for three months before he could tell the outside world. No, after three months, I will come and tell the queen in person. This is good news."

The empress naturally knew that her daughter had had a hard time getting married for many years, so she secretly sighed and shed so many tears for this daughter.As a woman, she was in pain when she lost a child, not to mention her daughter's miscarriages again and again, hurting her body and heart.

The empress was so moved that she burst into tears, wept with joy and said three words "good" before saying: "Your father must know this good news. He loves you the most. If he finds out that you are pregnant, he will be overjoyed."

After finishing speaking, he ordered his close maid, Xin'er, to go to the Hall of Supreme Harmony in person and report the good news to Xia Xu.

Not long after, Xin'er came back from the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but at the same time brought back another 'good news'.

"Reporting to Empress Empress, just now this slave girl met Jin He from Xianfu Palace, and she also went to announce the good news, saying that Princess Deyang was just diagnosed to be pregnant in Xianfu Palace, and it has been almost two months."

After hearing this, the queen on the seat turned ugly. This bitch...

Her Fu'er got pregnant after many years of marriage, but her niece got pregnant after only one year of marriage!Why?Why even God is on her side? !

Princess Jincheng noticed that the queen was unhappy, so she hurriedly sent Xin'er away, while she changed the topic, comforted the queen with nice words, and tried to make the atmosphere more relaxed.

The queen was pleased with her daughter's sensibility and caring, so she didn't care about it anymore.

……

Concubine Xian was afraid that Shenjiao would bump into her, so she sent a large group of people to escort her back.Lin Qing saw that the back line was much bigger than before, and thought that some important person from the palace had also come.

Lin Qing learned from Shenjiao that he was about to become a father, and she was almost ecstatic. She leaned in front of Shenjiao like a child, and refused to leave half a step. Even if she was teased by Daiyu, she would still be like a brown candy Sticking to Shenjiao's side.

Concubine Xian was very prescient, not only sent many highly skilled obstetricians and gynecologists from the palace to stay in the Lin Mansion to serve Shenjiao, but also sent an "experienced" nanny beside her to look after Shenjiao during pregnancy. Lin Qing...uh...this is the case.

Lin Qing was very sensible, so Ma Lier went to Fuguo General's Mansion to personally report the great news to Yue Zhang.

Shen Fang was also happy, and specially took out a lot of rare medicinal materials from the warehouse for Lin Qing to take back. Afraid that Shen Jiao would be tired, he also asked him not to come over for the New Year's Eve dinner tonight, but to come together on the Lantern Festival.

Lin Qing originally wanted to edit a book to tell Lin Ruhai who was far away in the south of the Yangtze River the good news, but Shen Jiao dissuaded him in time.The reason is that she has only been pregnant for less than two months now, and the fetal image is unstable, and it will not be too late to tell when everything settles down in a few months.

Lin Qing thought it made sense, so she stopped thinking about writing letters.

Lantern Festival on the 15th of the first lunar month.

Jia Yuanchun was allowed to go home and visit his relatives for half a day. Although he was only a concubine of the prince, Jia's family still received them with a very high standard.

Yuan Chun came to Mrs. Wang's place after seeing Jia's mother. The mother and daughter hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they naturally had a lot to say.

Sure enough, the first thing mothers in the world say when they see their children who have been parted for many days is - lose weight.

The difference is that some are due to the mother's filter on her own children, while others are really thin.

For example, Jia Yuanchun now is completely different from when he was in the boudoir. As the eldest granddaughter of the Duke's Mansion, how respectable and honorable is that?In the words of Mrs. Wang: That's the dignity of a daughter of a thousand gold!

But now what?

The plump and healthy body has not much flesh, the chin is pointed, the eyes are big, but the eyes are haggard and tired visible to the naked eye, and the face is covered with a thick layer of powder, which looks even worse than Mrs. Wang. How old are you?

When Mrs. Wang saw that her proud daughter had become like this, she regretted and felt pain. Jia Yuanchun was also full of grievances, so the mother and daughter hugged each other and cried bitterly.

Those who really hear it are sad, and those who hear it cry...

"My son, why did you become like this? It's all mother's fault, she shouldn't have sent you into the palace in the first place." Mrs. Wang covered her mouth and shed tears, and her heart ached a little more just looking at Jia Yuanchun.

Although Jia Yuanchun was also sad, he was a bit more sensible than Mrs. Wang, knowing that some things should not be said carelessly, so he quickly reminded her: "Mother, be careful!"

After finishing talking, I looked around to make sure that no one had slowed down, and sighed: "Why mention the past again? I finally made a trip home, and I didn't want to offend everyone."

Mrs. Wang felt even more guilty when she heard her daughter say this. There were only three of them in her life.Zhu'er's early disappearance is the eternal pain in her heart, and now she only hopes that Yuan Chun and Bao Yu'er will be well.No matter how bad Bao Yuer is, what about Yuan Chun who is by her side?Not only did she leave her early, but she was wronged and became a concubine later on. It's just that her own life is suffering. Why is the only daughter suffering so much?

Jia Yuanchun didn't want to discuss sad things, so he pulled himself together and said with a smile: "How is Bao Yu'er? I haven't seen him for so long. It's strange to miss him. He should be fourteen now, but which girl has he met?"

After mentioning Mrs. Baoyu Wang's mood finally improved, she took out her handkerchief and wiped her tears, "I have already settled on someone, and you know her, she is the daughter of your aunt Xue's family, named Xue Baochai."

Jia Yuanchun was very surprised, how did he get married with the Royal Merchant?Scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants have the lowest status. Although the Xue family is also her relatives, the cousin of the Xue family is indeed a good person after listening to her mother, but Jia Yuanchun always feels a little unhappy.

Jia Yuanchun thought for a moment, then asked politely: "Does grandma know about this?"

Mrs. Wang was a little amused, "Of course I know. The ancestor loves Baoyu the most. How could his lifelong event not go through her old man's consent?"

Jia Yuanchun was even more confused, he shouldn't, it is said that if the ancestors really loved Baoyu, they shouldn't have married Baoyu to a merchant's daughter.And her father, didn't he always pin his hopes on Baoyu's scientific examination?Then Baoyu should marry a lady from a scholarly family, how could...

Mrs. Wang is Jia Yuanchun's biological mother, can you tell what Jia Yuanchun is thinking?Sighing, she said: "I know you look down on the Xue family, but she is my sister after all. I am old and have few years to live. I just want Baoyu to be happy at my knees for a few more years. Now I only Baoyu is the only one left. If he doesn't kiss me, I really can't live. Therefore, I don't trust Baoyu to marry anyone. I'm afraid that he will be affected by the wind around my pillow and be alienated from me. Bao girl is different, she It's mother's natal family, no matter what, there are relatives, even if there is a gap in the future, it won't be ignored."

Jia Yuanchun was a little speechless, indeed, she only thought about Baoyu, but she didn't think of this level.

Jia Yuanchun was born early, and she also knows a little about the "infighting" between Mrs. Wang and Jia's mother over Baoyu, so... well, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to talk about it.

"I'm engaged at fourteen, and I'm going to get married in a few years. Are you ready for my aunt?"

Mrs. Wang said lightly: "Don't worry, your grandmother has already taken care of Baoyu."

Jia Yuanchun understood, so she just said, based on her understanding of Jia's mother, how could it be possible for Baoyu to let Mrs. Wang take full control over Baoyu's life-long affairs.

"Is it a girl from our house?"

Her father and uncle were both aunts born in Nauvoo, so Jia Yuanchun preconceived that Baoyu was the same.

Mrs. Wang said a little uncomfortably: "It's Qingwen, who used to serve by the ancestor's side."

Jia Yuanchun was curious and hurriedly ordered someone to call Qingwen over to see what she looked like.

She has always admired her grandmother's aesthetics, and she chose it for Baoyu, so this Qingwen must be a one-in-a-million beauty.

Sure enough, Jia Yuanchun was a little surprised when he saw Qingwen.

Hmm... She is indeed a charming beauty.

But, why is this girl so similar to the cousin of Lin's family that she met in Prince Yu's mansion that day?
