Dream Continues Red Mansion: Melting Daixin

Mrs. Wang was afraid that Daiyu would be an unlucky person and would drag Baoyu down, so she said she would give up Daiyu.Zijuan took advantage of this to arrange everything and took Daiyu out of the mansion, where she was taken to the mansion by Wang and Wang of Beijing.

After Zicuckoo finished talking about the affairs of Jia's mansion, she saw that Daiyu had fallen asleep, so she fell asleep herself.

On the second day, Daiyu gained some strength, she could get out of bed and walk slowly, she wanted to ask Zijuan to help her to thank the young prince, but the young prince never showed up.Daiyu didn't think too much about it, but the experience in the underworld, Shui Rong's caring and selfless care for him made her not know how to face Shui Rong in reality. She was grateful for Shui Rong's help, but she didn't know how to repay her. With nothing left, this kindness had to be hidden in her heart, so she was secretly glad that Shui Rong didn't show up.However, sooner or later we have to face, and sooner or later we have to meet.

But her heart was as cold as the autumn wind.Originally, her love for Baoyu was lightly regarded as brother and sister, and she cared about his safety in her heart. There is no affection, but there is still kindness. Unexpectedly, Baoyu is indiscriminate. Maybe she is the most cherished in Baoyu's heart, but unfortunately it is not the life she expected A couple; always thought that there was still a trace of family affection to rely on, but was abandoned by relatives, her heart was tightly closed, and it was cold.

Daoist Yiyun talked with Daiyu about medicinal herbs in addition to recuperating her body every day. Daoist Yiyun couldn't help admiring Daiyu's knowledge and insights about flowers and plants, and secretly calculated that Daiyu was an extraordinary woman. I also had a predestined relationship with her, and saw that although Daiyu was noble, she was an open-minded and sincere woman, so I unconsciously taught Daiyu medicine. Looks good.

This day is full of autumn, looking around, the sky is clear and the clouds are light, yellow leaves are all over the ground, Zijuan is walking with Daiyu on her arm, Taoist Yiyun asked Daiyu to walk around the courtyard more in her spare time, and she will recover quickly some.

Daiyu walked into the sun for the first time, covering the sun with her jade hand.The wind in late autumn chilled, and I couldn't help shivering.She just came out of the house with the stove and the warmth of spring, and she couldn't get used to it for a while.

After getting used to the temperature a little bit, Daiyu opened her eyes and looked around, it was a secluded courtyard, the courtyard is not very spacious, but it is very unique, according to nature, every mountain and river are full of charm.The indescribable casualness, elegance and beauty make people feel like entering a fairyland, picturesque and poetic, and feel relaxed and forget their worries.

Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief, walked to the lake where the water and stones reflected each other, and looked up, the three characters "Yuhe Pavilion" in the pavilion were strong and powerful, but there was softness in the softness, and hardness in the softness, and it was chic and elegant, with water-soluble name.Looking at this word, the person who wants to write this word should also be a noble but not arrogant character.

Daiyu sat down and looked at the flowing water under the pavilion with rapt attention. The water was so green that it bottomed out, gently rippling, reflecting the faces of people on the water like hibiscus, with clear eyes looking forward, and their faces were full of melancholy.It is the powder-faced hibiscus that is ashamed of the clear water, and the half-sorrow makes people worry.

Xueyan came over with a lake-blue cloak in his hand, and while putting it on for Daiyu, he said: "The young prince just sent some clothes, saying that it's getting cold in autumn, and I want you to dress warmly. If you need anything, he will help you." If you're here, tell him, if you're not here, tell Shuitang, Yinju and the others."

Shuitang and Yinju are maids arranged by Shui Rong to take care of Daiyu, and they are very considerate to Daiyu.

Daiyu came back to her senses, turned her head and fixed her eyebrows, looked around inadvertently, but saw a white shadow flashing out in the distance.

Daiyu frowned lightly, opened her lips, and said softly: "We live in the palace, and we have already disturbed others, so how can we ask for anything. The young prince is considerate to us, but we have to know the depth."

Although she was grateful for Shui Rong's help, she couldn't help but feel that she was so dependent on others. She only wanted to leave him when she recovered, and go to the mountains and rivers, forget about the troubles of the world, and spend her life in peace.

Zijuan said distressedly: "What is thinking in the girl's heart, Zijuan knows that the girl has left her hometown in her life, and went to her grandmother's house. She is not a host or a guest. The girl is an outsider, now she leaves there and comes to the palace, she is a pure guest, she can only do her duty as a guest, she can't take an extra step, say one more word, so as not to be laughed at by others, this is a girl who is educated. However, it is not a long-term solution for the girl to suppress her nature and bend her pride like this. The girl should relax her mind and take care of her body as soon as possible. Have a good time."

Daiyu smiled indifferently, Zijuan made sense and stopped making a sound.Today's Daiyu, only Zijuan, Xueyan, and Grandma Wang are by her side. It is rare that Zijuan is so caring, knowing what she thinks intimately.What she needs is not a maid who can be considerate and caring for her, what she needs is a congenial sister.

After a long time, Daiyu said: "I just want to miss my grandmother, I still have a little thought, but it's a pity that we can't take the books in that room."

Zijuan sighed and said, "I know that the girl cherishes those books, but we really can't take them away."

Daiyu nodded slightly, and said with a vague smile, "I'm not blaming you, but I do miss my books."

Yinju on the side smiled and said: "If the girl wants to read, there is also a study room in the courtyard of the prince. If the girl wants to read it, I will take you there. The prince is not in the courtyard at this time, and the girl can go to read it at any time. It is just that the prince ordered the girl not to be too tired." .”

Daiyu couldn't help but be moved, she was addicted to books like her life, and when she left the book for a while, her heart was as empty as if there was nothing left.He wanted to go, but in terms of etiquette, he had to shake his head and said: "The master is not here, it's just inappropriate to go into the study privately."

Yin Ju waved her hand and said: "My lord has ordered that girls can go to any corner in this yard."

But Daiyu missed those books, and thought about it: "Why don't we go first, and I will apologize when the prince comes back."

Immediately ask Yinju to lead the way, Zijuan held Daiyu's hand, and the group walked slowly to the end of the yard, in front of several spacious mahogany houses.

Yinju pushed open the door, Daiyu walked in, and the aroma of books rushed over her face, which made people's eyes bright.Compared with Daiyu's study in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, this study is many times larger. There are shelves of books neatly piled up, and it can be seen that the owner loves books very much.

Seeing books everywhere and smelling the fragrance of books, Daiyu often felt relieved, and the melancholy of the past few days was temporarily swept away.

Daiyu looked at the past, and found that classics, histories, poems, words, military books and war strategies are all there is, and there is nothing in it. Daiyu sighed in her heart, the young prince is really knowledgeable. Compared with him, Daiyu feels that she is really Little is known.

Daiyu said that she walked to the ancient music stand, took the book casually, walked around and looked at it until she touched the large rosewood chair, sat down unconsciously, and concentrated on reading.

Just as she was engrossed in watching it, she unexpectedly heard Zijuan exclaim: "Isn't this the green bamboo picture embroidered by the girl?"

It turned out that Zicuckoo was fine, looked around, and saw an embroidered picture hanging on the front wall.

Zicuckoo was surprised to disturb Daiyu, so she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.

Yin Ju smiled and said: "Our young prince is proud of this embroidery, it hangs here like a treasure, as soon as you come here, you have to open it and appreciate it."

Daiyu didn't blame Zicuckoo, followed Zicuckoo's gaze, and saw an embroidered picture hanging on the wall next to the window, covered with plain gauze, and a tall and beautiful bamboo forest could be faintly seen. , under the plain gauze, it looks like green in the fog, like a shy Chanjuan, it is the picture of green bamboo she embroidered, she once gave it to the second aunt as a gift, it turned out that the uncle gave it to him again, and he hung it on the here.

It seems that the owner of the study cherishes this embroidered picture very much, and hangs it here solemnly, and covers it with green gauze, presumably he often admires it here.

Daiyu's icy heart moved, it turned out that the young prince also loves bamboo, and the young prince actually liked this embroidery.

"Flowers blooming in spring, after rain and wind, they return to dust; bamboo is firm and elegant, with frost and snow for a few days, it will be arrogant."

Daiyu stared at this embroidery picture, and thought in her heart: When she embroidered, it was because she loved bamboo, liked the gentleman's virtue of bamboo, and thought of bamboo's nobility, humility, and bamboo's integrity, just like herself. , Now that it has come here, is the young prince also as tough as a green bamboo?

The fate of meeting him several times, although we don't know each other very well, we can see that he is an open-minded and modest gentleman, and this picture matches him.

One can't help sitting down, thinking of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion where you have lived for more than ten years, thinking of the bamboo leaves that sound like laughter and whimpers when the wind blows outside the window of Xiaoxiang Pavilion, thinking of the bamboo forest where the bamboo reflects the wind and leaning against the window several times, and thinking of yourself sitting alone In front of the window, on the days when the wind is shedding tears, I think of the books left by her father who accompanied her for many years, the parrot outside the window reading her poems, and the Yuyao Qin left by her mother.

That Yaoqin is now placed in the room of another courtyard, but she has no strength to caress it.

I think of my sisters writing poems in the Grand View Garden, and I think of my grandmother's kindness and love.

Only Baoyu was deliberately ignored.

After thinking obsessively for a long while, Daiyu looked away and saw under the embroidered picture, an ancient music set quietly placed beside the desk, she couldn't help but think of the words of Princess Shuimeng, Shuimeng is very good at water melting and also has superb piano skills, but she just didn't have the chance to listen to it. arrive.

Daiyu moved lightly, moved to the side of the qin, stretched out her slender hands, and touched the strings of the qin through the green gauze. The qin was spotless, and his master must cherish the qin very much. Sit alone by the piano, and use the sound of the piano to comfort your mind?

Daiyu thought in her heart: water melting is also quite elegant, much better than Baoyu.It is true that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky.

After reading it, she sighed softly, walked back and sat down, held the book in her hands again, and read it quietly. After reading it for a while, she remembered that Zijuan was waiting by her side, so she said to a few people: "Go and do your work. I'm here alone."

Zijuan thinks that they are of no benefit here, so it is better to go back and do the work at hand. This is the palace courtyard, and there is nothing wrong with it. If Daiyu needs it, call and they will come.

So Zijuan and the others left the study and walked away.

Sitting alone in the room, Daiyu was addicted to the book, forgot the time, and unconsciously gradually slanted to the west. Daiyu saw the sunset glowing like fire, and wanted to leave, but suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, and the sound of someone pushing the door.Daiyu was startled and thought, maybe it's the young prince returning home.This is the man's study room, she is a woman, it is extremely rude to enter the man's place privately.Although Daiyu was brought up by her father as a boy since she was a child, her knowledge is different from that of ordinary girls, and she often behaves out of line, but she never loses courtesy.If it is not a last resort, she will never go beyond the etiquette.Thinking of this, Daiyu hurriedly got up and hid behind the bookshelf, covered her body with the books on the shelf, and held her breath.

It was Shui Rong who walked into the study room, although this courtyard is in the palace, it is quiet, except for the old prince and princess, no one can enter without Shui Rong's permission, and others can't easily find it.

This place is quiet, quiet, and water-soluble. Whenever there is something annoying or difficult to decide, I come here to be quiet and read a book.

Today when he came back from court, he had a small gathering with the princes and sons, and he heard them talk about the idle people and affairs of the dignitaries and noble families. Those young talents talked about a lady waiting in Jia's mansion who died for no reason. She had an affair and her lover married another, so she lost her life.Shui Rong knew that the woman was Lin Daiyu, but that was not the case, but how could he tell the truth clearly, if he refuted it, not only would he not be able to correct Daiyu's name, but it would become more and more unclear.Unable to feel bored in his heart, his handsome face turned cold, and he came to the study to soothe his emotions.

With a cold face, he walked to the desk and was about to light the glazed lamp. He could smell the delicate fragrance in his nose, and there was a piano score left on the desk. Keep it, but anyone who loves books must put them back in the original place after reading them and arrange them as they are. The books on this table seem to have been put down and left in a hurry by the reader, so Daiyu must still be in the study. Inside.Shui Rongzhan looked around, but at the end of the bookshelf, behind the mahogany bookshelf, a corner of the skirt was exposed, which was light purple.

Shui Rong smiled knowingly, it was that woman, brave enough to dare to venture into the underworld, but too shy to see outsiders, this is her courtesy.

Shui Rong turned his head and thought about it, being alone in a room alone must be detrimental to a woman's reputation, he should go out first and let her get away.

Thinking of this, Shui Rong stretched out, and walked out of the study with heavy footsteps, Daiyu in the room heard Shui Rong's footsteps in the distance, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked out with her skirt lifted.Before returning to the book table, he took the book and put it back where it was before walking out in a hurry.Daiyu walked a few steps, and was meeting Zijuan and Zhu'er who were looking for her. They supported Daiyu all the way back.

Seeing Daiyu go far away, Shui Rongfang appeared, looked at Daiyu's leaving back, thoughtfully, and thought to himself: She is much better than yesterday.

Although Shui Rong didn't appear in front of Daiyu, he always kept an eye on everything about Daiyu secretly, often sitting alone in the study under the moonlight, thinking about worries.

He knew that Daiyu was a loving and righteous woman. Because of this, he didn't want to appear in front of Daiyu. He didn't want Daiyu to treat him only as a benefactor. What he wanted was to walk into her heart and be with her. Get to know each other and become a bosom friend.

But he was very contradictory in his heart, he took good care of her, he thought he had no selfishness, but why was his heart always tight?

"Can I warm her heart?" This thought made him feel a pain in his chest, and his face suddenly turned pale. He quickly put his hands on his chest, walked into the study and sat down.

Looking back at the embroidered picture on the wall, there is tenderness in his eyes.

"Stylish and unrestrained among all things. Xiuhuang is alone and group. Zhenzi once braved the snow. High abstinence and desire to soar to the clouds."

The character of this bamboo is not as good as that woman!

When he got this embroidery picture at the beginning, he saw the emerald green bamboo in the embroidery, which is "glamorous in the ice and snow, scattered in the wind and sun", which touched the long-standing feelings in his heart.He was looking for a woman who is talented, virtuous, tender-hearted, affectionate and righteous, with great love, a woman who can share the ups and downs with him, and share weal and woe.He once wondered whether the person who embroidered this picture had such character.After several encounters, I realized that she was more affectionate than I dreamed.She broke up with Baoyu, never ceased to be righteous, and she knew how to repay her kindness, and her weak shoulders could bear the affection of brother and sister.What a rare woman this is!

It's a pity that Baoyu guards such a precious woman, but she doesn't know how to cherish it, and she is merciful everywhere, which breaks her heart.I thought that Baoyu was a man of temperament, and what I liked about Baoyu was that Baoyu could keep his true feelings, but I was wrong about him.

It seems that he and Baoyu are not the same people after all.

Look at the bamboo again, there are traces of her tears on that pole of bamboo, has that pole of green bamboo ever witnessed her icy heart!

Shui Rong doesn't know that his heart is sinking gradually, falling into infatuation and unable to extricate himself.

The figure of Daiyu can't help appearing in front of my eyes, she is as pretty as a peach in three springs, and as clear as a chrysanthemum in nine autumns.At this time, Shui Rong, in his selfish heart, was somewhat nostalgic for Daiyu's soul. When he was ignorant, the time when he walked with her in the underworld. At that time, she did not avoid him. The pride and pride that shielded her from the wind and rain.

Now that he returned to reality, he was also a little afraid to face Daiyu, afraid to see her beauty concealing the present and the past, the lotus flower ashamed of her face, afraid to hear her delicate voice, and most afraid that she would always mention his kindness for help, never forgetting To repay.She was also afraid that his forgetfulness would make Daiyu misunderstand his sincerity and reject him thousands of miles away.

This night, Shui Rong didn't lean against the green pine tree in the dark night, staring at the warm candlelight from Daiyu's window, he wanted to calm his heart so that he wouldn't become a trouble to Daiyu.And he knew that she was not far away, under his protection.

On the second day, the sun was surprisingly good, and Yi Yundao felt Daiyu's pulse early in the morning, nodded and said: "He is recovering well, very much improved, after recuperating and exercising properly, even the old illness is gone."

Daiyu made a deep salute and said, "Daiyu would like to thank the Taoist priest for saving his life. Daiyu's life was given by you, the Taoist priest."

The Taoist repeatedly waved his hands and said: "It's not me, it's all, alas"

Thinking of Shui Rong repeatedly begging him not to tell that matter, the Taoist chief stopped and said: "Forget it, don't mention it, what I said, girl, do you think about it?"

Daiyu said with a slight smile: "How can Daiyu live up to the Taoist priest's kindness? Besides, Daiyu has learned medicine and can save the world. This is Daiyu's merit. Daiyu can only be grateful. How can she refuse?"

Then she knelt down and said, "Master, even if you don't accept Daiyu, Daiyu will recognize you as an elder and respect you as a father."

Daoist Yiyun hurriedly helped Daiyu up, stroked his long beard happily, and said with a smile: "I will accept you as a closed disciple, the same disciple as Shui Rong, and he is his junior sister."

Daiyu slowly got up and sat back with a smile.

But listening to the water-melting voice, he said: "What is the happy event, Master? I heard your laughter from afar."

With a water-soluble jade face and a long body, she strode forward, followed by a ten-year-old boy, looking around with big eyes.

But Shui Rongren approached, his eyes as bright as morning stars looked towards Daiyu intentionally or unintentionally, and when he saw Daiyu was safe, he unknowingly relaxed his tense face slightly.

This glance did not escape Daoist Yiyun's sharp eyes, and he smiled in his heart, but he was a little worried, because Shui Rong was too proud, he was afraid that he might not be able to recognize what was on his mind.

Daoist Yiyun said: "Shui Rong, come here, this is your junior sister, I accepted Miss Lin as a closed disciple, you, you are going to back off."

Shui Rong came to sit upright, faced Daoist Yiyun squarely, said with a smile on his face, "Congratulations master, master has a proud disciple, so he despises me."

Daoist Yiyun smiled and said: "I have nothing to teach you, and you will realize it by yourself in the future. Don't talk about this, what gift did you prepare for the junior sister?"

Goodbye to Shui Rong, Daiyu couldn't help thinking about the things in the underworld, thanking him for his protection, hurriedly came forward, slightly bowed her head and saluted, and said softly: "Minister Lin Daiyu has met the young prince, thank you for your help."

This is the first time the two have met since Huanyang. Although Shui Rongjian Daiyu's complexion is slightly pale, she is still white and flawless. The powder-faced lotus is half worried, her eyebrows are slender, her eyes are full of autumn water, and her waist is as slender as a willow. She is so weak that she looks even more delicate, especially the slight sorrow on her brows, Shui Rong felt a pain in her heart, and couldn't help but want to reach out her hand to soothe the sorrow in her heart, busy her mind, suppressed her thoughts like a tide, and emptied her to return the gift , said: "Girl, you are welcome, why bother to take those things to heart, from now on we are brothers and sisters of the same school."

Forcibly suppressing yesterday's thoughts in his heart, he warned himself that his concern for Daiyu may be due to being entrusted by Baoyu, entrusted by others, and loyal to others.

Looking closely at the woman's face, her expression was calm.

Shui Rong secretly said: In the underworld, Bao and Dai have already separated. After such a huge change, it is really not easy for this weak woman to survive.

Daiyu raised her head and stood up, returned to the side of Daoist Master Yiyunli, she couldn't help looking at Shui Rong, she saw Shui Rong's face was like a crown jade, her eyes were like stars, elegant like wind, fresh and handsome, just like a young man.

Although Daiyu's heart was already cold, she felt an indescribable sense of familiarity and dependence on Shui Rong after the wind and rain of those few days. This feeling was different from Baoyu, whose affection for Baoyu came from Family affection, the time spent together will last forever.

Daiyu thought to herself: Maybe it's because of Baoyu. He is Baoyu's friend, so she trusts him unconsciously, and Shui Rong takes care of her everywhere because Baoyu entrusts her to be a friend.

Seeing Shui Rong, Daiyu wanted to ask something in her heart, how about Baoyu?It's just that although she and Baoyu are relatives, they are of the opposite sex after all. She is open-minded in her heart, and it is inevitable that she will be honest, and it is difficult to speak out for a while.Forget it, don't ask, Baoyu has nothing to do with her from now on.What's more, Baoyu has forgotten her, and they don't even have the affection of brother and sister.The only relative left in this world who really cared about her was her grandmother.

But Shui Rong seemed to know what was on her mind, and said softly, "Miss Lin, your grandmother's family is healthy, and Jia Baoyu has also started to study hard, preparing for the scientific examination next year."

Lin Daiyu was a straightforward and innocent person, she didn't hide her thoughts, and because of her open heart, she couldn't help showing joy on her face and said: "My cousin can do this, and my uncle's family will be at ease from now on."

Only then did she let go of her heart, but she thought: She and Baoyu have really become strangers.

It turned out that she still cared about him, Shui Rong saw that Daiyu's expression was more relaxed, and felt relieved, but also a little bit disappointed.

Shui Rong took the little boy's hand, went to Daiyu and said, "Miss Lin, he is Meng Qing'er, the grandson of the old lady."

Lin Daiyu opened her eyes when she heard the words.
