Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

Daiyu saw that Princess Dunhui was leaving, so she thought that Shui Rong was going to leave immediately, but she didn't know that Shui Rong sat down and didn't intend to leave immediately.For a moment, Daiyu was a little at a loss, so she had to reluctantly get up and say hello.

Shui Rong said: "I ordered the kitchen to cook some Jiangnan dishes, let's have a meal together."

Daiyu thought that he had already arranged everything, and there was no reason to refuse, so she could only reply: "Okay."

Not long after, the head of the kitchen came with a big food box.The maids rushed to set up the dishes, but the two of them did not sit at the same table. The water-soluble dining table was on the kang table, and Daiyu's meals were placed underneath.

A plate of West Lake vinegar fish, a bowl of bad bamboo shoots, stewed shrimp balls with mushrooms, and the soup is fire meat and cabbage, all of which are old Jiangnan dishes.When Daiyu saw them, she couldn't help feeling homesick.Knowing that Shui Rong made it for people to prepare on purpose, I was slightly moved in my heart, but it was hard to say it out.

Shui Rong had something on her mind, so she only used a little bit, and Daiyu didn't eat much either.The maids brought mouthwash tea and cleaned their hands again.

Then Xueyan brought two cups of tea, and Daiyu sat down and took a small sip.

At this time, Shui Rong slowly opened his mouth: "Tomorrow morning, I will accompany you back to Rongguo Mansion."

Daiyu was slightly puzzled, when did she say she wanted to go back, she looked directly at Shui Rong.Shui Rong let out a long sigh, then lowered his eyes and said to Daiyu: "Shun'er, come and tell me that your Rongguo Mansion has brought word that the old lady is gone."

Daiyu stayed there for a moment, as if petrified, staring straight at Shui Rong, her eyes just didn't believe what she heard.Shui Rong raised his eyes to look at her, and sighed, "My condolences."

Daiyu said: "When Shun'er came over, the prince already knew about it, why didn't he say it then?"

Shui Rong thought to herself that she was still talking and laughing with Shui Xin at that time, he couldn't bear to break such a bright flowery smile, but he couldn't keep this matter hidden, he had to tell Daiyu himself, seeing Daiyu's questioning, he had no choice but to say: "Cai Xin I didn’t say anything about her here, you know who she is, she’s yelling. Besides, you guys are having fun, so I don’t want to spoil the fun. I can’t say that.”

But Daiyu didn't listen to these thoughtful words, she got up, leaned on the wall and went back to the house slowly, ignoring Shui Rong.

Shui Rong knew he couldn't persuade her, so she thought it would be better to let her cry, so she left.

Xueyan came into the room, but saw that the room was pitch black, and there was no waiter in front of her. She quickly groped for the fire sickle, lit the lampstand, and saw Daiyu lying on the bed with her clothes on her face.

Xueyan stepped forward to take a look, but saw that Daiyu's complexion was as paper, with wet tears on her face, and her breath was like gossamer. Xueyan couldn't persuade her not to be sad, don't cry.Thinking about how the old lady treated her daughter better than the three serious granddaughters of the Jia family, one day she would not say a few words.Thinking of the old days, Xueyan sat on the edge of the bed, wiping away tears with a silk cloth.

Daiyu turned over and sat up, and said to Xueyan: "Turn out my plain white clothes, so I can change them tomorrow. I can't take the pearls and emeralds on my head either."

Xueyan said: "Miss, don't worry, I know it all, remember it."

The north wind blew hard all night, and the snowflakes outside fell silently.In the dream, I vaguely saw my mother who had passed away for many years, and was telling her the story of my grandfather's family. When I woke up, I saw a beautiful window and a jade house. The world was a white world, which was the result of the wind and snow last night.

Not daring to delay any longer, she changed her clothes hastily, and put a white magnolia flower piled up on her temples.The car stopped outside the Chuihuamen, and he had to walk all the way.The sky was still sparsely covered with snowflakes. After a night of wind and snow, there was also a thin layer of snowflakes on the dry branches and tile ditches.There was also a thin layer of accumulation on the ground, and it was a little soft to step on.

Shui Rong walked over and saw that Daiyu was wearing a light blue silk cloak, with a moon-white jacket slightly exposed inside, and a plain white brocade skirt with ink calligraphy and painting underneath. feeling.Xueyan was holding a jade-colored bundle in her arms, and the little girl was holding an umbrella, and the group was walking slowly.

Shui Rong nodded slightly to her, and walked together until they reached the Chuhua Gate, where Shui Rong watched Daiyu get into the sedan chair with his own eyes.Only then did he turn around and get on his sedan chair.

In winter, a warm sedan chair is prepared, and there is a stove, but it is still warm.After walking this way, although it was not far away, Daiyu felt that her hands and feet were already freezing cold, and the warmth of the sedan chair made her body soft.Along the way, the shadow of her grandmother lingered in her mind and refused to go away for a long time. Daiyu vaguely remembered that she had dreamed of her coming last night.I don't know what the situation in Jia's mansion is now.

Following the bumpy journey of the bearers, we walked through many streets and alleys, and finally came to Rongning Street.Daiyu raised the curtain and looked out. There were snow-sweeping servants on the street, and mourners going to and fro, all in plain clothes and covers.

After walking not far, Daiyu first saw the closed gates of several rooms in Ningguo Mansion, and not far away was Rongguo Mansion.The vermilion gate has been covered with white paper, the lanterns are also covered with white gauze, and the servants have all changed into plain white clothes.Daiyu's heart skipped a beat.

Seeing that it was the sedan chair of the Northern Prince's Mansion, Manager Lai rushed forward to meet him, Shui Rong sat in the sedan chair without moving.Director Lai saluted and greeted him, and invited the bearers to enter the mansion through the main entrance, followed by Daiyu's sedan chair.I didn't get off the sedan chair until I passed through the two-story door and reached the sedan chair hall.

Then someone came to lift the curtain of the sedan chair, and Daiyu raised her eyes, but saw that it was a nanny who didn't look familiar.Xueyan also came over and said with a smile: "Miss, we are here, please get off the sedan chair."

Daiyu helped Xueyan bend over and came out. She took a look and saw that Shui Rong had disappeared.I was thinking about my grandmother at the moment and didn't think much about it.

So there were servants and maids who came to lead Daiyu to the inner courtyard. Daiyu knew this family very well after living in it for several years.Now when I come back again, things have already changed.

The mothers-in-law led Daiyu to pay homage to Jiamu's spirit. Daiyu only saw a white world, and her grandmother's coffin was parked behind the white curtain.This situation hurt Daiyu, and inevitably reminded her of her deceased parents, she couldn't stop crying.Until someone called out: "Sister Lin!"

Daiyu turned her head slightly, but she saw Baoyu in front of her, wearing an ivory white robe, holding just lit incense in her hands. Good stick.

Daiyu felt her throat choked up, and there were only tears on her face, but she didn't hear crying.Li Wan came out and said, "Sister Lin, please rest here."

At that moment Suyun and Xueyan came over and asked Daiyu to rest in the back room.

When such a major event happened in the mansion, there were busy people coming and going.Li Wan and Baochai went back and forth to order things, but when they came down they still seemed a little flustered.

Xichun walked over, saw Daiyu and said with a half-smile, "Sister Lin is here."

Daiyu rubbed her eyes red, glanced at her, thought of the many sisters in the garden in the past, but now she is the only one left, she felt a lot of emotion in her heart and asked: "Did the third sister come back?"

Xichun said: "Not yet, and the second master hasn't come back yet. This happened so suddenly, people should report it, and I don't know if he will come back next year."

Daiyu thought to herself that the journey to Tanchun was really far away, and the second uncle was still working in Haijiang, so he didn't know when he came back.Fortunately, there is a family temple where coffins can be stored.

Xichun has always been withdrawn, rarely interacts with others, and has no one to talk to intimately.When Daiyu saw her, she thought of Miaoyu, so she asked casually, "Is Miaoyu in Changcui Temple all right?"

But Xichun said like Zen Zen: "It's just an idea, I envy her, she walked out of this world of mortals early. But her practice is not enough, and she still can't let it go. If I go out someday, It will never be like her six roots are not broken."

Xichun's voice just fell, but You Shi heard it, and walked in with a sullen face: "You are the daughter of the manor, what are you doing thinking about these monks every day, people like us, these thoughts can move? Today I said to go with your brother, saying that you are getting old, you should hire a good family, and the world will be quiet."

Xichun said with a cold face: "Sister-in-law, why bother to tell me these things. I don't need to talk about your affairs, I understand. Why bother to drag me, I have my own ideas about how to be destined in this life."

You Shi was so blocked by this sister-in-law that she couldn't speak, her face turned red and white, and she wanted to say a few words, because Daiyu was not easy to say such a thing in front of her, so she sneered and said embarrassingly: "The girl is also ordinary. People who read and write don't even understand this truth. A man should marry a man and a woman should marry a woman. No matter how good the family is, there is no reason to keep you forever. That would be a sin."

"Don't marry again, and someday get rid of all these troubles and become a sister-in-law, and don't listen to your nagging again." Xichun turned sideways, already pretending to be full of resentment.

Youshi said to Daiyu: "Miss Lin, listen to what she said out of the mouth of a daughter of a thousand gold. She is not angry."

Xichun snorted coldly: "Injustice." Then she left and went back to her room to copy scriptures.

Daiyu took advantage of this to comfort Youshi: "Sister-in-law Zhen, the fourth younger sister is always like this, why are you getting angry?"

"Hey, it's my own fault. With such a sister-in-law, who can I tell?"

Baochai came from outside and asked, "Sister-in-law Zhen, have you ever met Lian's second sister-in-law?"

Youshi shook his head: "I didn't see her, you should go to another room to have a look."

Baochai said: "I'm really anxious to death, and I don't know where Sister Yuanyang is. I was looking for someone to discuss things, but I didn't see anyone. The sister-in-law is in chaos. The wife is angry."

Youshi wiped the corners of his eyes, and Baochai thought that sister-in-law Zhen was crying behind her back because of the old lady's affairs, but she didn't know it was because of Xichun.

Baochai came over and said to Daiyu, "Sister Lin, sit down first, and I'll talk to you when I'm free."

Daiyu got up and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't call me, go."

Baochai nodded slightly, then hurried out again.
