Love in the Red Chamber is full of Xiaoxiang

Lying on the bed all night last night, I could only hear the rumble of firecrackers outside, which kept coming and going until the fourth watch.Daiyu only slept for one more time before she forced herself to get up.

He and his aunt sent someone a set of brightly colored clothes, and said to Daiyu: "Miss is ready, let's go together to greet the Queen Mother."

Daiyu agreed.Lianxin combed Daiyu's hair in a new and clever way, and changed into a silver-red flowered narrow-legged jacket, an ermine silk jacket, a yellow-colored leather skirt, and fragrant sheepskin boots.Xueyan added another red crane cloak with a white fox lining, and then stuffed it into a carved hand stove with cloisonné enamel.

My aunt and I saw that Daiyu's outfit today is much more gorgeous than in the past, and I saw her eyebrows swept lightly, she applied a thin layer of makeup, she was romantic and affectionate.

Together with her aunt, Daiyu went to Changchun Palace.As usual, many people gathered inside and outside the hall to congratulate the New Year.Daiyu suddenly saw that the couplets had been replaced on the pillars, and the characters in bright red were written neatly on the white paper.Daiyu felt strange for a moment, how come there are still couplets written on white paper?Later, I saw that the pillars were painted bright red. If I used red paper again, I couldn't see it.

Daiyu knew that Jia's family had to prepare for the birthday of Concubine Yuan on the first day of the first lunar month, and there were many things to do.The juniors kowtowed in front of Jiamu, and then went about their own business.

Neither Daiyu nor Auntie was a famous person on the board, so they saluted with all the servants.Then they distributed things and dispersed one after another.

Another person came to ask her aunt to talk and joke, but Daiyu was left behind.After standing for a while, when he was about to go back, he saw Princess Beijing walking with Princess Dunhui.

Daiyu saluted with a smile.

Dunhui helped Daiyu and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that sister Lin is here, isn't she, sister-in-law?" Then she went to see the princess.

The princess smiled lightly, and saw that her clothes were different from those in the past, and she was very gorgeous. The princess hurriedly said: "It's better for young women to wear these colors. Miss Lin's clothes are usually too deserted. Let's go and greet the Queen Mother together. .”

Daiyu followed the two into the main hall.The floor was covered with newly paid Persian rugs, and the furnishings in the room were completely new.

The Empress Dowager ordered a small table to be placed in front of the couch, and on the table were three large plates of lotus leaves containing newly minted coins, which were strung together with red strings.There are also various palace-made purses, sachets, small objects, etc., which are full of a big plate.Anyone who comes to salute will be rewarded.

The Empress Dowager sat on the couch with a happy face, surrounded by her favorite granddaughters.

After saluting, he stepped back and saw Princess Yongjia sitting on the low stool in front of the Empress Dowager's bed.Also changed into new gorgeous clothes.

When the Queen Mother met Princess Beijing and Princess Dunhui, she was naturally happy to see her natal family.The concubine said auspicious words: "I hope the queen mother will be safe, and I hope the queen mother will be auspicious and happy, and the four bodies will be healthy."

The Queen Mother laughed and said, "Why are you young, sister-in-law, where is the water going?"

The princess replied with a smile: "He has also entered the palace, and was called to speak by the emperor."

The Empress Dowager said: "Alright, Ai's family saw that the emperor liked him very much. You just say what Ai's family said, let him honor the court well, and don't have to think about other things."

The princess promised.

The Empress Dowager let people look at it again, and rewarded the princess with one end of palace silk, one end of colored satin, a pair of sapphire wine glasses, and a pair of gold collars.The princess thanked her.He also gave the princess two purses, which contained new-style gold and silver lockets of various colors and a string of red fragrant wrist beads.

The queen mother was naturally emotional when she saw her natal family, and she talked about the palace with the princess again: "The Ai family heard people say that your side concubine's child is gone, why is it gone? I finally hoped for one, How do you say that it's gone?"

The princess regretted and said back: "Speaking of which, it's really not good. The prince and I are also happy, but we don't have such a blessing."

The queen mother sighed: "My Rong'er seems to have too few heirs. After a while, the Ai family will reward him with a few good girls. The incense of the Shui family must be passed on."

The princess had nothing else to say.

The queen mother said again: "The Ai family originally thought that the side concubine was born, no matter if it was a man or a woman, they wanted to be recognized under your name. It was also for auspiciousness, but I didn't know it would not work."

Seeing the long housework chatter here, Dun Hui couldn't intervene. After sitting for a while and seeing that a blue and white plum vase on the table was empty, Dun Hui thought of a trick and said to the Queen Mother: "I heard that there are plum blossoms in the garden. It's open, how about the servant girl take someone to pick some plum blossoms and put them in the bottle on the table?"

The queen mother laughed and said, "Okay, it's rare for the princess to be so filial."

Dunhui hurriedly asked the maid to take down the plum vase, and asked someone to store water for the maid beside her to hold it. After calling on Daiyu, she went out happily.

Once out of Changchun Palace, Dunhui suddenly felt that the world was wide open, and she talked and laughed with Daiyu about the new things she knew in the past few days, which also made Daiyu laugh a few times.

Soon I came to the plum garden, and I saw a tree of red plums blooming against the cold wind.The snowstorm last night made the flowers on the branches bloom more vigorously.Dun Hui was also not afraid of the cold, she personally picked a few flowers and put them in a vase, then she said to the servant girl, "You can hold them, if the queen mother or sister-in-law want to ask a question, just say that I am in the garden with Miss Lin. "

The maid took the bottle and went back to Changchun Palace.

"Sister Lin, how about these flowers?"

"Well, the colder the weather, the more energetic the flower seems." Daiyu praised sincerely.

"That's not it. By the way, the queen mother and my sister-in-law just talked about my sister-in-law Nan. She saw that she was about to give birth in two or three months, but she suddenly said that she would be gone. Nan's sister-in-law cried all night, but she couldn't help it." People dare to come forward to persuade her, it's like going crazy, and my sister-in-law can't do anything about her. Sister Lin, is my child going crazy when he suddenly loses someone?"

Daiyu replied: "Maybe it's because the blow was too great, and there are people who are crazy."

"I didn't like her in the first place, and I don't like her now that I've become a lunatic. But my brother was so angry and anxious that he sent people everywhere to ask for medical advice. I don't know when it will be better."

Daiyu said, "Maybe it will be all right after a while."

Dun Hui nodded: "I think so too. A lot of things happened in the past year, but I also got to know a sister, this is the greatest joy." Dun Hui took Dai Yu's hand and gave Dai Yu Yingying smile.

Daiyu said: "It is the greatest blessing for the daughters of the people that the princess does not dislike them."

"Sister Lin really can talk." Dun Hui said with a smile.

The maid who delivered the plum blossoms came back again, and Dun Hui asked her, "What's the matter? You've made another trip."

Xiulan replied: "The queen mother has something to ask the princess, please go quickly."

Dunhui said: "Then I have to go." She looked at Daiyu again and asked her, "Sister Lin, are you going?"

Daiyu replied, "It's better not to go, I'll go back to Fengyi Palace."

"Okay, I'll go to Fengyi Palace to talk to Sister Lin later."

Daiyu nodded in agreement, and watched the princess go away.Standing alone under the plum tree, she remembered that she had written a sentence about plum blossoms in her predecessors, and she had made a couplet sentence about the snow scene in the Grand View Garden, and it was a few years ago.

She reached out and picked one off, ready to take it back and raise it.Looking at the flowering branches in her hands, Daiyu suddenly thought of two lines of poems about red plums, and said in passing: "Niannianfang believes in the red plums, and the riverside is about to bloom again."

I just finished singing and suddenly I heard someone chant the following sentence: "Treasure the sentimental Guan Yiling, straight and root to send spring."

Daiyu thought that there must be someone else in the plum garden who heard her poems, but she couldn't see where they were.If you don't know well, you turn around and leave.
