Dream Continues Red Mansion: Melting Daixin

Chapter 30: Choosing Embroidery as a Gift

Because Jia Zheng wanted to see the young prince of Nan'an and the young prince of Beijing off, he asked Mrs. Wang to select elegant things. Mrs. Wang brought her favorite peony embroidery picture to Jia Zheng for appreciation. Jia Zheng shook his head after seeing it. , straight to the point that this thing is too tacky.

Mrs. Wang wanted Jia Zheng to be happy after seeing it, so she took the opportunity to praise Baochai a few words. After hearing this, the words she was about to say slipped into her stomach, and she couldn't help but stayed for a long time. That's all. There are also big girl, third girl, and fourth girl who embroider, and they look good, so you can pick one and take it." There was a little bit of displeasure in his tone, but he didn't dare to say it.I only thought about it until the master looked at the other ones, and then I realized that the one she liked was an excellent product.Thinking about it, he ordered Yuchuan to go back to his room to fetch them all, and let Jia Zheng pick them.

When Yu Chuan came back again, the little girl who was following her walked over carefully. The little girl held a stack of embroidery pictures in both hands, which almost covered her fair face, and only turned her head to look at the road. Yu Chuan taught her to place the embroidery pictures Spread it out on the table for Jia Zheng to choose.

Jia Zheng opened them one by one, looked at each embroidered picture carefully, and stacked the ones he had seen first. Mrs. Wang watched coldly from the side, and only waited for Jia Zheng to change his mind before going to admire Mu Baochai's embroidered pictures. Zheng opened and stacked one by one. When he turned to a picture, he paused for a moment and said happily, "This is the picture, which suits his taste." Then he changed hands and showed it to Jia Mu.

Mother Jia took it, raised her reading glasses, lowered her head, looked up and down carefully, nodded with her lips pursed, and said, "Well, this one is not bad, it's the crane flying high, and the embroidery style is like Sanya's embroidery."

Mrs. Wang was suspicious, and some embroidered pictures caught the master's eyes. Could it be that she really compared Baochai's peonies, so she also came forward to have a look, and thought to herself: So the master focuses on such things, but it's a pity that Bao girl A good embroidery picture.You should only say to the old lady: "It was embroidered by the third girl."

Jia Zheng looked at Jiamu admiring the embroidery and said, "This one is for the Young Prince of Nan'an, it suits his style."

Jia Zhengdan put this one away, and then picked it out. These many embroidery pictures were all good, but they didn't quite meet his liking. He frowned a bit in disbelief: "Young Master Beijing is a young man with a haughty heart, and he looks as gentle as jade. But it has always been different, and it is easy to find something that catches his eyes, so he can't choose a bad one."

Because of this, I kept some fault-finding intentions in my heart, and turned to the last one, as if the willows are dark and the flowers are bright, I can't help but see it, hold it up and down in front of my eyes to look closely, there is a smile on my face, and Nianxu nods slightly.

Jia Zheng was admiring the embroidered picture, but he heard Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang who were on the other side say in surprise: "The double-sided embroidered bamboo picture."

Mrs. Wang was ashamed and said: I didn't care.If you knew it was double-sided embroidery, you should have saved it and given it to your empress.

Jia Zheng was also surprised when he heard this, and quickly turned it over to see that it was indeed a double-sided embroidery, with the same pattern on the front and back.

Jia Mu looked at the embroidery picture in Jia Zheng's hand with her presbyopic glasses, and said, "This is Suzhou embroidery. Our family cannot embroider this embroidery method. In the past, only Min'er could embroider it. She and the palace The embroiderer here has learned it, and has lived in Suzhou and Hangzhou for more than ten years. She is proficient in various techniques. When the emperor was still the prince, Min'er would embroider valuables. Every year she gave me clothes, she also used them I embroidered it by myself using Suzhou embroidery techniques." At the end of the speech, thinking of her daughter, she felt a little sad, her eyes became moist, and she wiped her tears with her sleeves.

Jia Zheng hurriedly said: "Okay, you are sad again. Isn't your niece and daughter safe and sound by your side, just like sister Min is still there."

Mother Jia sighed in her heart and nodded silently.

Mrs. Wang said with a smile: "It's the green bamboo picture embroidered by the eldest girl. I think the old lady will like it, so I want to keep it. Don't give it to someone else."

Jia Mu's heart is like a mirror, but she just waved her hand and said, "Let him take it. It wouldn't be a waste if my wife kept it."

Jia Zheng also liked it very much. He used to be a very elegant person, but now that he is old and has been in the officialdom, his thoughts have long since faded, but his appreciation ability remains the same.

Mrs. Wang could only smile and shook her head and said: "You guys like those four gentlemen and so on. Why do they have peonies that are eye-catching and have profound meanings. I think my mother must like this picture of peonies. I will go to the palace to present it to my mother in a few days." Wouldn't it be better to be able to enter the palace than to sacrifice the young prince.

Jia Mu smiled and said, "That's fine, that peony picture is also top-notch, it must be Bao girl's handicraft, and it's good to give it to your empress."

Jia Zheng held the embroidered picture in both hands, and handed it carefully to Jia Mu when he came. Jia Mu put on the mirror and stroked the embroidered picture with her hands. After seeing it, he nodded and said with tears in his eyes: "It was embroidered by Miss Lin. This stitch cannot be embroidered by others. It is exactly the same as Min'er's. Poor Yu'er took how long it took to embroider this picture. She is weak and weak. I can’t hold on even if I can’t embroider a few stitches a day.”

Mrs. Wang and Jia Zheng repeatedly said yes, and waited for Jia's mother to finish reading. Jia Zheng chose an exquisite box. After the little girls carefully packed the two pictures, they took the brocade box and said goodbye. They went out to meet the King of Beijing. The young prince and the young prince of Nan'an.

In the room, Mrs. Wang sat with the old lady for a while, then resigned and went back to the room.

On this day Mrs. Wang always felt restless. She couldn't help thinking of the matter that Jia Mu asked Jia Zheng to investigate. She held the rosary and put it down before reciting the Buddhist scriptures. Chuanlai said, "Go and ask my aunt to come and see me quickly."

Yu Chuan had never seen Mrs. Wang in such a panic, with a suspicious expression on her face, she hurried to Xue's residence without mentioning it.

However, after Daiyu and Xiangyun came out, they walked slowly. Xiangyun saw Daiyu's face slightly sullen, and sighed: "Sister Lin, it's hard for you. Everyone in the house thought you had nothing and went to the house. Take it lightly on you."

Daiyu sighed, and said: "I hope my uncle can find out the truth soon, and everyone will have no doubts in their hearts. However, I have become accustomed to the gossip of people in the house. If I often get into trouble about these things, I will What can I do? It will make my grandmother sad."

After hearing this, Xiangyun just shook his head and didn't answer.The two walked back to the garden with lotus steps, Xiangyun said: "It's still early, there's nothing to do if you're free, why don't we go around the garden and then visit Sister Feng."

Daiyu is also in a bad mood at this time, she thinks it's better to walk away to let go of her anger, so as not to offend Sister Feng, so she nods her head.

The two strolled in the garden, and when they turned to the Ouxiang Pavilion, they heard the sound of chess playing in the house, so they entered the house to play Go with Tanchun and Xichun. Before the game was over, Daiyu and Xichun looked at Xiangyun amusedly Fighting with Tanchun over a sunspot, Xiangyun slapped the table and stomped his feet, if it wasn't for Xichun who stopped him, he would have jumped on the chair, Daiyu would have smiled and pulled her out, Xiangyun had been talking to Daiyu along the way How does that one child annex Tanchun?

The two talked and laughed, walked all the way out of the garden along the water's edge, and walked to the small path connected by the Dicui Pavilion near the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. Seeing that the carved window of the pavilion was closed, they heard two women inside intermittently With the chirping sound, Daiyu and Xiangyun had already turned towards the pavilion and walked nearly halfway. Because they heard someone talking here, the two of them didn't stop. After leaving the Dicui Pavilion, Xiangyun suddenly remembered something, and said, "Sister Lin, I think of that day..." The two of them gradually moved away, and their voices could not be heard anymore.

At this time, the window of Dicui Pavilion was slowly pushed open, and two heads with flower arrangements and hairpins poked out from inside, looking at the two beautiful figures walking away, the two in front of the window were Zhui'er and Lin Hongyu.

Zhui'er turned her head to look at Lin Hongyu, but Lin Hongyu was extremely unconvinced.

It turned out that Zhui'er and her parents went to the countryside, and Zhui'er's emotions gradually stabilized and her body recovered. Her father worked part-time for others, and she and her mother helped others. They get along well, and neighbors and folks also like them.

This day Zhui'er and her mother came to the city to go to the market, Zhui'er wanted to see Lin Hongyu.She managed to find Jia Yun, and begged Jia Yun to take her into the garden, at least to meet Lin Hongyu.He was in a hurry, and he didn't say a lot of things clearly.

Now that Jia Yun and Lin Hongyu were engaged, they had to choose an auspicious day to get married, and knowing that Lin Hongyu and Zhuo'er were close friends, they naturally tried their best to find an opportunity to let Zhui'er come into the garden.
