Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

In the shadows of the lights, Daiyu unfolded the letter written in water. The thin paper had only a few lines of words on it. She greeted her family members one by one, and at the end there were a few words "All good, don't read."

Daiyu read the few short lines no less than a dozen times, and she didn't know the circumstances under which he wrote them hastily.Daiyu cursed secretly in her heart, she was so ruthless, so there was nothing extra to say.She held the letter paper in the palm of her hand, clasped her hands together, and made a vow in her heart to bring the word "Ping An" to him who was far away in the northwest.

When I just received his letter, I was so happy, but when I finished reading the last word, I felt a little bitterness in my heart.Such a strange emotion made Daiyu a little annoyed, and without her knowing it, all her sorrows and joys were closely tied to that person.

The letter paper was hot like fire, she folded it neatly a few times, and put it into the red box painted with gold, which also contained the veil with the poem on it.She glanced at the pen and paper that she had prepared earlier, and the inkstone that Tongyun had sharpened for her. The scent of hibiscus flowers and borneol, in the black inkstone, was as deep as the night outside the window.

Daiyu took the paperweight and pressed the pages, and was about to write with a pen, but hesitated at this moment.The moment she hesitated, the dripping ink splashed on the paper, forming several ink flowers.Daiyu was a little depressed, she rubbed the paper, feeling confused, she wanted to write again, but she didn't know what to say.

Dun Hui had already woken up from sleep, turned over to ask for water, but saw that the room was brightly lit, and Dai Yu was still sitting at the table, Dun Hui asked in a daze, "Why isn't sister-in-law asleep?"

Daiyu turned her head and said, "I'm replying to your brother, I'll go to bed later."

When Dunhui asked for water, Daiyu hurriedly poured out half of it. After Dunhui used it, she tossed her body and fell asleep again.Feeling a little melancholy, Daiyu took out the silver hairpin and lit up the candles.She casually picked up the book on the desk, and flipped through two pages, but it turned out to be one (Selected Yuefu Poems). Seeing the sentence "Thinking of the Lord makes one grow old, and the years are suddenly too late", she suddenly felt something in her heart. With many emotions, I concealed my thoughts and thought, and I already had many sentences in my heart, so I imitated the format of that (Mingyue He Jiaojiao) and wrote with a pen. The poem said: "The bright moon is He Jiaojiao, and the willows on the Baqiao are green. The smoke locks the Jiuzhong Pavilion, and the painting waves Thousands of miles away. Asking about the king's period in sleep, dreaming of love. The spring mountain is difficult to describe, and it is easy to draw a skirt. The cold moon cages the cold window, and the mandarin quilt is lonely and cool."

After writing, Daiyu read those verses over and over again, each sentence was straightforward, and the meaning of thinking about a woman and complaining, fell straight to the tip of the pen. It was the first time for her to write such a sentence, and she felt a slight heat on her cheeks.When the handwriting dried up, she conveniently added the pages into the book (Selected Yuefu Poems). Regarding the reply letter, she still didn't write a single word, and she felt sleepy, thinking that she would write it tomorrow.

In the middle of the night, it started to rain again, and I felt chills all over the place.The sound of rain dripping on the sycamore leaves on the back porch is exactly "sorrows and joys are always merciless, dripping until dawn before the first step."

Early the next morning, all the houses came to say hello, and Daiyu talked about the water-soluble family letter.Shui Cheng said in front of him: "Brother didn't say when he will be back?"

Daiyu shook her head: "I don't know yet, maybe it will take a few months."

The side concubine said again: "When the prince leaves, the family will lose a backbone."

Daiyu smiled, patted Shui Cheng and said, "When my uncle grows up, the side concubine will also have someone to rely on."

Shui Cheng, who was less than ten years old, was already as tall as Daiyu's shoulders, and his complexion was slightly dark yellow.

Concubine Side then said, "Yesterday, Cheng'er came back and told me that he was in school, and the master gave him something. Cheng'er, show your sister-in-law the reward you got, and make your sister-in-law happy."

Hearing this, Shui Cheng sent the small waist knife she got to Daiyu. Daiyu took a look, and saw that the silver scabbard was engraved with flowing twig patterns and inlaid with turquoise.Daiyu said with a smile: "The master in the school really loves my uncle, and rewarded such a precious thing."

Shui Cheng laughed again and said: "Together with the reward is the heir of the Hengwang family."

Concubine Side smiled and said: "The eldest son of Wang Heng's family is two years younger than you, which is even more rare."

Daiyu asked Xiyue to take a box of Yushang's new ink from the water-soluble study and give it to Shuicheng.Then he said to Concubine Side: "It's because Concubine Side taught well in the past."

It's really not easy for Concubine Side to raise Shui Cheng, especially after the old prince left, their mother and son are almost dependent on each other, but fortunately they don't have to worry about food and clothing, and they can live a decent life.Shui Rong loves his family very much, so Shui Cheng's childhood was not bumpy.

Shui Cheng said a few more words in front of him, and the people in front were urging him to go to school.Shui Cheng hurriedly drank the porridge in the bowl, wiped his mouth, asked the boy to take his schoolbag, and ran away in a hurry.

Concubine Side said from behind: "Slow down, do something in a hurry, and be careful not to fall."

Daiyu said: "The concubine is worried about my uncle every day. He is so old, and there are many people around him. I can't worry about it."

Concubine Side said: "This kid has a weird temper since he was a child. I said let a few maids wait on him in his room. He doesn't like it. He said he gets annoyed when he sees a girl. Listen, Wangfei, it's not like you can laugh or cry. , if things go on like this, how will you marry a daughter-in-law in the future?"

Daiyu covered her face with a smile and said, "Cheng'er is only very young, and I don't know about the relationship between men and women."

Concubine Side had breakfast with Daiyu and Dunhui, after the meal, Concubine Side suddenly asked Daiyu: "Did you say anything when Imperial Physician Gan came in yesterday afternoon to ask for a pulse?"

Daiyu said: "Please take care of me, I'm in good health, there's nothing wrong with me."

The concubine side smiled and said: "It would be great if there is good news. The prince has a son, but it is a happy thing."

Daiyu blushed slightly, and sat there awkwardly.

Dunhui was trying on clothes, when she heard this sentence, she hurried over, pulled Daiyu and asked, "Is sister-in-law pregnant?"

Daiyu's face was flushed: "No way, Concubine Fang is just guessing. Besides, Imperial Physician Gan said that my body is still weak and needs to be recuperated for a period of time. I take a lot of medicine. If I become pregnant, I'm afraid it will be bad for the child."

Concubine Side nodded, and said repeatedly: "That's true, it's not too late to take care of yourself. The prince and concubine are also close, and they are still young, so there will be a long time to come."

Daiyu has never thought about children, and now that Shui Rong is not in front of her, it is not easy to ask him what he thinks.

Dun Hui said again: "I thought I was going to be an aunt, but after a long time, it turned out to be nothing but joy."

Daiyu laughed and said, "What is the Princess in a hurry to do?"

Dun Hui quickly said: "I'm not in a hurry, I'm in a hurry for my brother."

Nan Qing was very upset when she heard these words, she frowned and said to Dai Yu: "I will take my leave first."

The side concubine continued to talk in front of Daiyu to relieve her boredom.

Dun Hui and Tong Yun imitated Shuanglu in the bisha cupboard.Xiulan walked over and quietly handed a letter to Dunhui, but Tongyun just pretended not to see it, and didn't say a single unnecessary word.

Dun Hui glanced at it, the handwriting on it was very familiar, her ears turned red secretly, and while Mother Qin was drinking tea there, she hurriedly hid the letter in her sleeve, pretending to be nothing.

After this round, Tong Yun won.But Dunhui never took these things seriously and threw her a bunch of money.

Tong Yun didn't dare to accept it and hurriedly said: "Play chess with the princess, how dare you ask for the princess's money."

Dun Hui said: "A bunch of money is worthless, so I will reward you." So she hurriedly drove everyone out of the house.

She lay on the soft couch, took out the letter in her sleeve and read it slowly, her face blushed slightly, her chest throbbed wildly, and she read it back and forth several times.Just when she was about to put the letter away, she suddenly found Daiyu standing at the door. Dunhui sat up quickly and asked in panic, "When did sister-in-law come?"

Daiyu laughed and said, "I was there when you were giggling at this letter."

Dun Hui's face was flushed, and she said embarrassingly, "Sister-in-law didn't say anything when she came in."

Daiyu came over without asking about Dun Huixin.Dun Hui put it away in a hurry.When Daiyu saw what happened, she had already expected it a little. She was afraid that Dunhui would be ashamed, so she didn't ask.

Dunhui took Daiyu to sit down, and took the initiative to hand over the letter for her to read. Daiyu took it and glanced at it hastily.

Dun Hui said: "Sister-in-law, you said this Han kid is really..." She opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say next, as if she wanted to blame Han Qi, but she couldn't bear it.

Daiyu smiled and said, "When your brother comes back, I'll let the second master of the Han family come in to propose marriage, okay?"

Dunhui blushed even more, put her head on Daiyu's shoulder, and hesitated: "Is he willing to come to propose marriage, but I may not agree."

Daiyu was a little surprised and hurriedly asked: "You don't want to? Then why do you still exchange letters?"

Dun Hui got up quickly, stomped her feet and said, "Hey, whether he comes to propose marriage is his business, and I'm not in a hurry."

These words made Daiyu amused. It's not that she doesn't want to, but she is afraid that Mr. Han won't come to propose marriage, so she teased Dunhui: "You are not ashamed, the majestic princess, teach privately with others, be careful of Mother Qin Now that Mama knows, I have to tell you again."

Dunhui curled her lips: "She takes care of me so badly, I can live a better life without her."

Daiyu thought to herself, when Shui Rong came back, he must be satisfied with this marriage. At that time, the mansion will have to prepare for the princess's wedding, so I don't know how lively it will be.When he comes back, I don't know how happy I am, I can hold his hand and let him do this and that, not allowing him to get bored.It's just that the return date is still undecided, and I don't know how long this wait will be.

The sister-in-law and sister-in-law were talking about their own things, and suddenly Guan's mother came in and said: "I want to report to the princess, the manager said that the emperor is ill, and asked the princess and the princess to rush into the palace."

Daiyu was slightly taken aback, knowing that she couldn't be careless, she hurriedly called the maids, and she and the princess rushed to make up, while at the same time getting someone to prepare a car and sedan chair.

Later, the mother-in-law came in and said: "The car was pulled out when I came back from the day I went to Nan'an Mansion, and I haven't had time to repair it in the future."

When Daiyu heard about it, she said, "Then I will take the same car with the princess." Here, four servant girls, Tongyun, Hanyan, Xiulan and Xiuyu, were ordered to accompany them.

Concubine Side and Nan Qing came out to see each other off again, until the aunt and sister-in-law boarded the car and left.
