Love the Red House
Chapter 14: On Past and Present
Looking at Sister Feng with a sad face, Daiyu was full of thoughts. After a moment of silence, Fang Han said sadly: "On weekdays, people often say that my sister is in charge of the whole family, and she is the grandma who is decent and beautiful. How do you know Is my sister suffering?"
Raising her bare hands lightly, she rolled up her hair on the sideburns, and said immediately: "My good sister, I know you have suffered a lot, but in my heart, there are a few words I want to say to my sister. Not happy to say it."
Sister Feng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "My younger sister can read and write, and her knowledge is of a high level. If you have something to say, you just say it. Why are you so polite?"
Daiyu nodded lightly, and said with a smile: "So, I can say what I have to say, and if I say something wrong, don't take offense to my sister."
Staring at Sister Feng, she suppressed her smile and sighed: "I have been here for a long time, and I know a little about the affairs of these two prefectures, sister, have you ever thought about it, you are the daughter-in-law of the eldest aunt, why do you want to marry me?" The eldest aunt is always indifferent to you?"
After hearing this, Sister Feng showed astonishment on her face, she pondered for a long time, then Fang Nana said: "My sister, I never thought about it, probably because she has always hated me in her heart, that's why."
Daiyu pursed her lips slightly, shook her head and said, "My sister and my aunt have no grievances in the past and have no hatred in the present, how can she hate you for no reason? According to my guess, the reason why my aunt is doing this is because she is not convinced. After all, my elder sister is the serious daughter-in-law of the first room, but she has been serving as the housekeeper of the second room. On weekdays, the older sister is more respectful and affectionate to the second aunt than the first aunt. Comparing the two, the first aunt is naturally out of balance .”
Hearing that Sister Feng's heart moved, she was silent for a long time before she nodded and said: "What my sister said is that I am the second wife's biological niece, and the second wife often says that we are all from the Wang family. We should be closer Yes, moreover, the eldest wife's background is not prominent, and she does not attract the attention of the second wife. I have always listened to the second wife, but I also look down on the first wife. Therefore, these years, I have devoted myself to this side, As long as you serve the old lady and the second wife well, and make them happy and satisfied, then everything will be fine, and the eldest wife's side is indeed much lighter."
Daiyu frowned slightly, and murmured in a low voice: "That's it, people's hearts are replaced by people's hearts, it's the same principle from ancient to modern times, my sister is not affectionate to my aunt, and my aunt is not at ease, how can she have a good face? "
Sister Feng's face turned pale, she lowered her head and said nothing. Daiyu looked at her and sighed, "My dear sister, I used to be so absorbed in my own thoughts that I didn't pay much attention to other things. Now, I My heart is still like water, it's rare that my sister is here again, I would like to remind my sister a few words.
Lifting the catkin lightly, she patted Sister Feng's arm, with an intimate look and soft words: "Now, the eldest aunt lives there, and the second elder brother Lian and you are here to take care of the house, and the eldest uncle often goes out. I seldom take care of my eldest concubine when I am with my concubine. My eldest aunt is lonely when I think about it. My sister should be more considerate. If I have free time, I will take sister Qiao to go there more often. , with the granddaughter-in-law serving, the eldest aunt can live a happier life and calm down. Naturally, she will no longer treat her sister with a cold face. Even her sister herself will save a lot of trouble with less noise; After the road is paved, if something happens in the future, my sister will be able to live in harmony with my aunt when she returns there, so that she won't be offended or wronged."
Sister Feng was taken aback when she heard this, looked up at Daiyu, frowned and said, "Sister, where did you start talking? I'm already here, so why do I need to go back to Ningguo Mansion? For the sake of this mansion all these years, I I paid almost all of my dowry, with such care, is it possible that my wife will drive me out?"
After hearing this, Daiyu sneered and said, "My sister is so smart on weekdays, why is she so stupid now? I also guessed why the second aunt asked her sister to be the housekeeper. First, although the elder sister-in-law is her serious daughter-in-law, But the elder sister-in-law has a good temper and has always been kind. She can't do much, so how can she provoke the Jia family's burden? Secondly, although the housekeeper has real power, it is easy to offend people. Only then can it be handled properly. For these reasons, the second aunt asked her elder sister to be the director. In this way, she doesn't have to worry about herself, and she doesn't have to be blamed by others, and she can sell a favor, so that her elder sister is grateful and obeys her wishes in everything , and with my elder sister's strong temperament, she must be cautious and considerate in everything, so I don't know how much better than my second aunt's self-management."
As he said that, his eyebrows raised, and he said again: "Yes, my sister is here to be the head of the house now, but what about the future? Isn't Baoyu married? Even if my sister is the niece of the second aunt, she can't compare to a serious daughter-in-law. What's more, my sister has always known Baoyu's choice of marriage and who the second aunt favors. When my sister was not feeling well, the second aunt asked her to participate in the council. Why did she take into account that her status is a relative and cannot be surpassed? When she was a boudoir girl, It's already so out of line, could it be that in the future, the second aunt will abandon her own daughter-in-law and let her sister stay here for the rest of her life and be the head of the family for the rest of her life?"
Sister Feng couldn't help being startled when she said these words calmly and calmly. After thinking for a long time, a wry smile appeared on the corner of her lips, and she said in a shy voice: "What my sister said is that I have really become an idiot. I've never thought about these things, I'm afraid I've worked so hard for so many years and put so much thought into making wedding clothes for others." As she spoke, she sighed repeatedly, her face becoming paler and weaker, without a trace of blood.
Daiyu looked at her, with a sigh of pity in the corner of her eyes, and said softly: "These years, my sister has been thinking hard and worrying day and night for this house, and her body is not as good as before. According to me, my sister should see through it and take care of it. Your own body is important, as for other external affairs, it is really not worth caring about. You must know that you are too competitive, and in the end, the one who gets hurt is actually yourself.”
Sister Feng lowered her head for a long time, then Fang sighed: "What my sister said is true. Thanks to my sister's advice, otherwise, I would have been an idiot for the rest of my life. From now on, I will pay more attention, worry less about the affairs of this mansion, and go to the university more. The wife serves in front of me, leaving a way out for myself."
Daiyu nodded, pondered for a moment, changed her words, and said: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Although there are many things that my sister never tells, I understand it. I know that although my sister is high-minded But in the bottom of my heart, she is extremely affectionate. My sister treats the second elder brother Lian wholeheartedly, only hoping to find a husband who likes her. So all these years, my sister has been living an unsatisfactory life, but there is nowhere to complain, it is really uncomfortable."
After hearing these words, Sister Feng stayed for a long time, her eyes gradually glowed, she couldn't help but choked up and said: "Sister Zhenzhen has a heart of wisdom, she is my confidant."
Daiyu hurriedly pulled out a handkerchief from her sleeve and handed it over. When she calmed down a little, Fang persuaded, "I didn't intend to make my sister cry when I said this, but to persuade my sister. If my sister is sad, she will be sad." , but you still have to relax your heart a bit, after all, as a woman, it is extremely difficult to survive in this world, no matter when and where, you should cherish yourself and never underestimate yourself."
Sister Feng was silent for a long time, then sighed: "Everyone in the whole family only thinks that I have all the glory, but no one has ever said such a thing to me."
Speaking of this, he stood up, bowed deeply, and said: "Although my sister is a boudoir girl, she has much better knowledge than me, and she is the most understanding. Talking to my sister will make people feel happy." It's much easier, thank you sister."
Daiyu hurriedly supported her, and said softly: "Given the relationship between me and my sister, why should my sister do this?"
Holding Sister Feng's hand, there was a touch of warmth in her eyes, and she said immediately: "My good sister, I came here as an orphan, and I have been living under the fence these years. On weekdays, in this house, apart from the old lady, there are only You are willing to take care of me and be sincere to me. I am very grateful in my heart, but I have never been able to repay. From now on, if my sister encounters something that goes wrong again, why not come to me. Although I can't do anything, I will quietly Listen to my sister talk, and do my best to relieve my sister's worries."
At that time, her complexion was as gentle as jade, and her words were soft and soft, like a trickle, slowly seeping into her heart, followed by endless true feelings and warmth.
Sister Feng couldn't help but parted her lips and sighed, lowered her eyes and said: "My sister treats me like this, it really makes me feel moved and guilty, I really feel ashamed to face my sister."
Daiyu raised her eyebrows lightly, and said in surprise, "Why did my sister say that?"
Sister Feng lowered her head and lowered her voice gradually: "My sister treats me with sincerity, and I should treat her with confidence. In fact, my sister is not an orphan. Behind my sister, there is the Lin family's 10 taels of wealth."
Daiyu's expression was calm, without any fluctuation, she said softly: "Is this what my sister said? I already knew."
She spoke calmly, but Sister Feng was shocked, she looked up at Daiyu with a look of astonishment on her face, bit her lips lightly and said: "Really?"
"Naturally," Daiyu smiled lightly, with a gentle voice, "Although I was young at that time, I was still very clear about some things. Our Lin family has been ruled by five generations of princes, and we have always managed our family in a simple way. How can we not have any property left behind?" Come to think of it, at that time, my father must have carefully managed the family property and entrusted it to the second elder brother Lian who followed me back to the south of the Yangtze River, and handed it over to the Jia family. In this way, even if I live under the fence, I can live a more comfortable life and wait for me to grow up Afterwards, the rest of the money will definitely be returned to me. It is very good for him to think this way, but he does not know that Rongguo Mansion is no longer the old Rongguo Mansion. , It seems that Jinxiu Tuantuan has long been unable to make ends meet, and is living on a daily basis. Therefore, as soon as the money entered Jia's house, it was embezzled and used to build the Grand View Garden."
Looking up at Sister Feng, her eyes were as clear as a pool of clear springs, and said with a sneer, "Let me just say one more thing, without our Lin family's money, this Grand View Garden might not have been built."
Under her clear gaze, the embarrassment on Sister Feng's face deepened, and she thought to herself, Daiyu in front of her, sees things clearly and has extraordinary insights, she is really a special woman, I'm afraid, in this world , is unique.
Thinking so in her heart, Sister Feng sighed: "My sister's heart is like a mirror, and I can't hide anything from my sister."
He lowered his head, and his voice was as thin as a mosquito, inaudible: "Although the idea of embezzling money was conceived by the second wife, I also participated in it, and I couldn't get rid of it. So, these years, my sister's clothing and food , I always pay attention, I just hope that my sister can live more comfortably. I have also thought about it, and when the tent is free, I will save the money from my sister's house and return it to my sister. I don't have any money left, and I still owe a lot of foreign debts, if this continues, I will definitely be sorry for my sister in the future." Speaking of this, his eyes turned red, and he couldn't help crying like rain.
Daiyu sighed, and said softly: "Money and other things are all outside the body, I don't care, why should my sister be sad about this?"
He raised his hand to wipe her tears, his starry eyes like autumn water blinked, and his words were tender: "Even though my sister's tears are like pearls, it's useless for me to come. If my sister feels uncomfortable, please cherish me from now on." A few, that's all."
After hearing her witty words, Sister Feng couldn't hold back for a moment, she couldn't help but burst out laughing, she slowly shed her tears, and said word for word: "My sister said so."
There was a faint sense of fortitude in the polite words. From then on, Sister Feng made up her mind that in the days to come, she must do her best to protect Daiyu.
She did this not only because she felt sorry for Daiyu, but also because such an affectionate girl deserves to be treated with sincerity.
Raising her bare hands lightly, she rolled up her hair on the sideburns, and said immediately: "My good sister, I know you have suffered a lot, but in my heart, there are a few words I want to say to my sister. Not happy to say it."
Sister Feng was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "My younger sister can read and write, and her knowledge is of a high level. If you have something to say, you just say it. Why are you so polite?"

She did this not only because she felt sorry for Daiyu, but also because such an affectionate girl deserves to be treated with sincerity.
