Love the Red House

Since Daiyu entered the mansion, Baoyu has been around her, and Jia Mu has always loved and valued this granddaughter. This situation naturally made Mrs. Wang worry, suspecting that because of Daiyu's existence, it would affect the planning for many years. Marriage of gold and jade.

Because of these thoughts, she secretly used many means to suppress Daiyu, but she did not expect that today, when she heard the news of Baoyu's illness, Daiyu was still in a relaxed mood, which was completely different from her previous behavior. different.

Opening her mouth wide, Mrs. Wang was stunned for a long time, and then she vaguely felt that after Zhou Rui's family visited Beifu that day, she said that Miss Lin had changed her temperament and didn't care about Baoyu at all. Really.

Such a change made her ecstatic, but even so, she didn't show it on her face, she only raised her eyebrows, and said with a needle hidden in her face: "The eldest girl went out and saw the world, and now she comes back, her temper has become much calmer, and she has never seen it. Talking to me is also indifferent."

At that time, Mrs. Wang's words were indifferent, but there was a vague sense of ridicule. Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, her face was clear and she did not want to argue with her.

But I heard Jia's mother sigh, and said slowly: "Forget it, let's not gossip, Yu'er, these days, Baoyu does often talk about you, and the weather is cold, so I didn't pay attention for a while, and my body was a little uncomfortable. It's very uncomfortable to look at." It hurts."

Speaking of this, he looked at Daiyu and said with a smile: "It is inevitable that Yu'er will be tired. Go to his side and have a look, so that he can rest assured earlier. When he is safe, he can go back to Xiaoxiang Hall to rest."

Hearing this, Daiyu was stunned for a moment, an imperceptible faint frown appeared between her brows, a little unhappiness and a little reluctance welled up in her heart.

For Baoyu, the little girlishness that slowly grew up in the face of each other at the beginning has disappeared in the twists and turns again and again, leaving nothing in my heart.

On the contrary, because she was used to seeing Baoyu's naive and ignorant, and often said some outrageous words, causing trouble, Daiyu was very tired in her heart, and she only hoped that in the days to come, she could avoid him far away, live alone with each other, and never see each other again. .

However, when my grandmother spoke, it was not easy to refuse, but on second thought, why not take this opportunity to completely break up with him, lest he talk nonsense again, make others misunderstand, and put myself in an embarrassing situation.

Thinking of this in her heart, Daiyu pursed her slender lips slightly, nodded and said in agreement: "What grandma said is that since Baoyu is not in good health, I will go to Yihong Courtyard to visit immediately, so as not to cause any trouble." Then she got up and resigned from Jia Mother, came out with snow geese, took the road and turned to Yihong Courtyard.

When they got there, the little maid standing aside saw this, hurriedly greeted Ann, made a sound to announce, and stretched out her hand to open the curtain.

Daiyu nodded slightly, and then walked in. After walking a few steps, Zijuan greeted her with a smile on her face, and said in a joyful tone: "Miss is back, the second master has been reading for a long time."

Daiyu was completely clean, and she glanced at her lightly, and saw that although she was dressed in red and green, with pearls and emeralds all over her head, she was very brightly dressed, but there was a faint trace of paleness between her brows and eyes, and she wanted to spend the whole day competing for beauty. , is not very satisfactory.

Although she is well aware of these things, but because Daiyu has decided to abandon this person, up to now, whether her life is good or bad, she is naturally to blame, no one else.

If so, Daiyu only held a slight smile, and said in a gentle voice: "Miss Zijuan and I are already strangers, but now Miss Zijuan speaks in such a familiar tone, it is really inappropriate."

Seeing Daiyu's indifferent face, Zijuan was disappointed in her heart, with a shy expression on her face, she didn't dare to say anything to get closer, but she might as well come forward with a smile on her lips, and said in a sneering tone: "Sister Zijuan saw you before My master came here to flatter you in such a hurry, I don't think that Miss Lin doesn't appreciate it, it's really a waste of time."

After hearing this, Zicuckoo's face turned red, her eyebrows lowered, and she muttered and couldn't speak.

Daiyu didn't care about her at all, but she still couldn't get used to Xiren's sharp and proud appearance, so she sneered and said calmly: "Listen to Miss Xiren's words, she really has the demeanor of a housewife. It's just that I don't quite understand that Miss Xi's identity is not much different from Zijuan, but now she is so out of line, I don't know if there are any rules in this mansion."

Hearing these sharp words, Xiren couldn't help but choked, his face turned red and white, and when he was about to speak up to defend himself, Baoyu in the inner room heard the noise and said hurriedly: "I heard Sister Lin's voice, Sister Lin, come in and let me take a look."

Naturally, Xiren couldn't say anything more when he heard the words, so he forced a smile and gave way: "Miss Lin, please come in."

Daiyu looked cold, and no longer cared about the dispute between them, she just rolled up Liuyun's long sleeves and walked leisurely into the room.

But I saw Baoyu lying on the bed, his face was a little pale, his expression was a little haggard, but he was not serious, there were many maidservants beside the bed, all dressed up like Yingyingyanyan, beautifully dressed, it was a harmonious and lively scene scene.

Because I haven't seen Daiyu for a long time, now I see her stepping in gracefully, wearing a light purple double-breasted light cloud dress, the color is as light as the orchid breath that is gently breathed out, and the lower body is matched with water blue soft clothes. The gauze lily skirt, the clothes are tailored to fit, making her graceful, graceful and soft.

The temples are like cicadas, the brocade is tied around the waist, and the belt is light as you walk, fluttering like a butterfly, indescribably beautiful and beautiful.

The demeanor is so moving, Baoyu stared at it intently, a trace of infatuation flowed involuntarily in his eyes, a smile bloomed on his lips, and he said cheerfully: "Sister Lin, you are back, these days, because you are not here, I don't think about eating and drinking. , I miss you day and night, it’s a very unsatisfactory life.”

Daiyu's bright eyes were like waves, she lightly passed by the maidservants standing beside her, and said with a light smile: "Your words are a bit funny, you are the phoenix in this mansion, there are so many How can it be unsatisfactory for a girl to accompany her around, flatter and serve her?"

Baoyu was dazed for a moment, a flash of embarrassment flashed across his face, but he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "Although they are with me, but sister Lin is not here, my heart is empty, as if there is nothing left."

Having said that, he looked at the maids, waved his hand, and said: "Forget it, you should be tired too, go down and rest, I have something to talk to Sister Lin."

All the girls listened, although they were a little reluctant, they had no choice but to agree. After saluting, they all lowered their eyebrows and eyes, and filed out. Seeing this, the snow geese also left and waited outside.

When the waiting room quieted down, Baoyu stared at Daiyu obsessively, with tenderness in his words, but with a hint of resentment: "The mansion sent someone to visit my sister that day, and I asked sister Zhou to bring the message, but I didn't want my sister It's heartbreaking to answer some cold words, but once I heard it, I couldn't bear it."

After hearing these words and looking at Baoyu like this, Daiyu couldn't help being a little speechless, sneered a few times, and said with a flick of her sleeves, "I don't know who is it that makes people worry?"

"Obviously, I have already told you that in a place of right and wrong, you should not act recklessly, so as not to give others excuses."

"Although you and I did grow up together, but now that we are all old and live our own lives, that's all. Why do you want people to spread those words?"

"Do you feel that there are too few gossips in the mansion, so you add fuel to the flames, and you want everyone in the world to talk about me, suspect me, and laugh at me, so that you are satisfied?"

Seeing her tenderness, Daiyu still looked calm and spoke indifferently, Baoyu was startled suddenly, looking at her eyes, gradually revealed a trace of never-before-scrutinized scrutiny.

The woman in front of him grew up with him, no matter whether he was happy, angry, sad or happy, he didn't deliberately hide it, he only showed his true face, and there was no falsehood at all.

This kind of Daiyu's words now are naturally from the sincerity, and she will never use any means of trying to get her like others.

Thinking of this, Baoyu suddenly felt a little panic in his heart, and felt that the Daiyu in front of him seemed no longer the little girl who would fight and cry endlessly because of her few words.

While he was meditating, Daiyu's voice came slowly, with a hint of coldness, like autumn frost and cold dew: "You are making trouble in the mansion, that's all, but in front of the King of Beijing, you don't even care about your sense of proportion." , Nonsense, fortunately, King Beijing is a gentleman who is upright and upright, otherwise, you would have plunged me into the abyss and would never turn over."

After hearing this, Baoyu let out a "ah", immediately forgot about other things, and thoughtfully said: "That's right, when I was chatting with Lord Bei that day, he had already promised to deal with this matter for me."

Speaking of this, he fixedly looked at Daiyu, with a hint of anxiety in his voice, but more anticipation: "Since you already know about this matter, it must have been told to you by the Lord of the North. Did you say, how will he mediate next?"

Daiyu said with coldness on her lips, "You don't have to have any more expectations. The King of Beijing will not interfere with this matter, because I have already refused to say that the whole thing is all your imagination. As for I never thought the same way."

Baoyu's pupils shrank, showing some shock, surprise, and disbelief, and asked in a daze: "Sister Lin, why did you say that? My sister and I grew up together, and we are much closer than other people. I look forward to being with my sister for a long time, and my sister should naturally have such expectations in her heart, how..."

"Stop," Daiyu stopped him without waiting for him to finish, "You are you and I am me, how can they be confused?"

Turning his eyes, he looked at Baoyu who was obsessed with obsession, and his words were as clear and graceful as before, but with a sense of determination: "Speaking of which, if you are not clear in your heart, I will put the words in plain sight. Here, you have expectations in your heart, but I don't. To me, you are just a cousin, a brother, and nothing else."

This is Daiyu's point of view, she doesn't want to be entangled with Baoyu anymore, she becomes the thorn in Xue Baochai's and Mrs Wang's eyes, and becomes the object of taboo, suspicion and guard against by all the maids who are looking forward to climbing high.

She has lived through such difficult days for many years, and every moment, she has the feeling that the days are like years, and she is tired of a beautiful heart.

Now, to confide the truth in my heart and make up my mind, it should be an explanation and an ending for this young love affair.

From then on, the sky is big and the earth is big, the clouds are calm and the wind is light, and I am no longer ashamed of my love and my heart.

After hearing these words, Baoyu was full of astonishment, suddenly lifted the brocade quilt, sat up from the bed, wanted to speak, but was a little at a loss.

Daiyu didn't speak either, she just stood by the window, with a graceful figure, like a trace of a shadow.

The room is silent, you can hear the drop of a needle,

After a long time, Bao Yufang trembled and murmured, "Why did my sister suddenly say such unfeeling words? You know, when my sister came to the mansion, we ate and lived together. I kept everything delicious for my sister. , My sister never persuaded me to take the road of official career, and promised to be my confidant with each other."

"Later, everyone moved into the Grand View Garden. We recited poems and composed Fu together, read The Romance of the West Chamber, and buried flowers by the lakeside. So many past events, so many things. Is it possible that my sister has forgotten all of them?"

Seeing Baoyu talk about the past incoherently, entangled endlessly, there was a hint of impatience in Daiyu's eyes, and she almost wanted to leave, but finally she breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed her mood, and said decisively: "I have completely forgotten the past. , never mention it again.”

"There is a line in a poem that says, 'It is better not to see each other than to meet'. This is really good, we just think that I didn't go to Beijing back then. You don't know that there is me in the world, and I don't know that there is you in the world. We don’t know each other, we don’t meet, we don’t get involved.”

Baoyu raised his face in a daze, and looked at the woman who was a few steps away, with pleasant but indifferent eyes, as if an invisible barrier had been erected between them, preventing him and her from getting closer.

In a trance, it seems that there is something that is permanently lost. Although I feel pain and reluctance to let go, I can't grab it back, and I can't do anything.

In Daiyu's bones, not only does she have a firm and decisive temperament, but also she is pure, kind and gentle, which few people can match.

Looking at Baoyu who is ignorant and ashen-faced, although Daiyu has no nostalgia at all, she still moves her lips and speaks vigilantly: "You and I are cousins, and we think about it because of this little affection." Now, let me call you Baoyu again, anyway, after today, I will never call you again."

"Although I don't want to have any contact with you anymore, I have another message in my heart. I want to tell you that you like to listen. I'm very happy. If you don't want to, I have nothing to do."

"These days, I have never understood why you, Baoyu, act according to your own temperament, without any taboos."

"Later, I gradually understood that it was because you have been living in the circle of the Jia family since you were born, because you were doted on by old ladies and wives, and because you were supported by the grandson of Duke Rong, and the rest of you, Whether you are willing or not, you will follow your will, and there will never be any act of disobedience."

"Because of this, you will feel that you are standing tall, so you will say some outrageous things and do some things that are not in line with the rules. Anyway, the whole world revolves around you, and no one will criticize you. against you."
