Lin Ji's struggling life

Lin Daiyu's life in Jia's mansion can be described as carefree, living in her own small courtyard behind closed doors is no different from living in her own home.Every morning, she went to Jiamu's place to say hello, and she would go to Jiamu's yard with a few sisters who came together to read, embroider and get along very well.

Generally, lunch is served at Jia Mu's place, and her elders use more soft food, and Lin Daiyu has a weak stomach, so the food at Jia Mu's place is more suitable except for its strong taste.Even Jia's mother followed Lin Daiyu to become a vegetarian, and she ate vegetarian dishes for lunch every day.

In the afternoon, Lin Daiyu would usually go back to the yard to take a nap, and after waking up, she would read and practice calligraphy in the room by herself. She has developed a habit since she was a child, and she has to practice calligraphy every day.

When she finished her work, it was evening.Lin Daiyu's dinner is usually served in her own yard. Originally, Jia's mother wanted Lin Daiyu to eat at her place, but Jia Baoyu's precious egg is not used to vegetarian dishes, and Lin Daiyu insisted on being vegetarian for her mother. Had to eat separately.

For this reason, Lin Dong specially built a stove in the small yard for Xu's mother to use.With this small kitchen, it is much more convenient.

Lin Daiyu even named her small courtyard, and had a plaque carved and hung on it: Leisurely Pavilion.This one is modeled on what she saw in the book, and the yard has been greatly changed under her skillful arrangement.

A small swing was set up under the osmanthus tree in the yard, and a stone platform and two or three stone benches were placed beside it. They were not neat, but they had a special charm.The ground in the yard has also been repaired, a cobblestone path was built, and the bluestone beside it was loosened and replaced with fertile soil, and the inch-long green grass was planted.For this reason, when Lin Ji came the day before yesterday, he brought her two rabbits.

The three rooms are the living room, bedroom and study, and the servant's room in the back seat is also full. After the layout was done properly, even Lin Ji praised it.

Of course, this place has also become a place where Sanchun often comes to entertain.

Sometimes Jia Baoyu would come to play with Lin Daiyu, but was persuaded to read and practice calligraphy again and again, and now Jia Baoyu was a little timid when he saw Daiyu.Recently, he made a new friend in the ethnology school, and he went out every day to make appointments, lingering, and naturally he forgot about the beautiful women at home.And Jia Lan would visit Lin Daiyu to play in Lin Daiyu's yard every day after dinner. First, Lin Daiyu had a good collection of books here, and second, he could ask her about his idol, Uncle Lin.

It was also for this reason that Li Wan took great care of Daiyu.

When the first snow fell in early winter, Shi Xiangyun also came to Jia's mansion.

On this day, Lin Daiyu and Sanchun were embroidering at Jiamu's place, and Li Wan was instructing them.Lin Daiyu also learned a little under the guidance of her mother in her early years, and her skills are quite exquisite.After Jia Min passed away, Lin Ji didn't understand these things at all, and naturally no one would urge Lin Daiyu to take needles and threads, because she had been negligent and wasted a lot.Now following Li Wan's side, she is learning slowly, and she is smart after all, after being stabbed a few times, she picked up the previous impression and embroidered decently.

"I love to see you little girls who look like flowers. With you by my side, I feel that these days are easier." Jia Mu sat in the first place, her legs were covered with a thin quilt, and Yuanyang was sitting on the side of the footrest to beat her. Legs, "Especially after Yu'er came, I feel much better."

"The old lady is just worried. Now the sisters in our family are all good. You see, they have only practiced for a few days. This skill is rare." Li Wan praised and lifted the handkerchief in Lin Daiyu's hand to Mother Jia. look.

Lin Daiyu hurriedly took it back, she blushed, and said embarrassingly: "Biao sister-in-law, don't laugh at me, my skills are shameful." She knew her level well, so she shouldn't show it to others.

"Oh, don't be modest." Li Wan said with a smile: "I've only been learning this for a few days, Miss Lin's skill looks like she has practiced it. Tanchun is also good, but Xichun is a child after all. Mind, it's still not good enough." Li Wan commented one by one, and when talking about Xichun, regardless of her dodging movements, he stuck his head out to look at her handkerchief.The color is good, but the stitching is not good.

While they were chatting, Lin Zhixiao came in with a little girl.Here is Shi Xiangyun. Lin Daiyu looked at the smiling and mellow girl in front of her, feeling a little close to her, and looked at her with a smile on her face.

"Old Ancestor, why did you just think of picking me up now? I'm so looking forward to it that my eyes are about to drop." Shi Xiangyun walked in quickly, went straight to Jia Mu's arms, and acted coquettishly against her.She sat down and noticed Lin Daiyu beside Li Wan, and looked at her curiously.He opened his mouth and asked, "What a beautiful sister, who is it?" She hasn't been to Jia's house for a long time, and she hasn't heard anything about Lin Daiyu.

"This is your sister Lin, my granddaughter." Jia Mu asked her to explain her confusion, and then introduced Shi Xiangyun to Lin Daiyu: "This Pohou is my natal nephew's daughter. You are about the same age, so you can play together." Jia Mu He stroked Xiangyun's hair and said, "Your elder sister Lin just came to the capital from Jiangnan, you should take care of her more."

Shi Xiangyun naturally knew that Jia's mother's married daughter had a child, but he never thought it would be so lovely. "Naturally, I want to take good care of such a beautiful sister. Is sister Lin living with the old lady?" She looked at Lin Daiyu curiously. Shi Xiangyun had heard about Jia Min's death.

"Yes, I came to the capital with my brother not long ago, and I just came to live with the old lady a few days ago. If sister Xiangyun comes, she can live with me." Lin Daiyu warmly invited: "We can paint red and write poems together , drink tea and enjoy the flowers!" Thinking about it makes me happy.

"Ah, he is a kid who knows how to enjoy himself." Li Wan joked, "I didn't know you have so many tricks, no wonder Lan'er often runs into your yard."

Shi Xiangyun was a little surprised when he heard that she had her own yard in Jia's mansion.Shi Xiangyun was orphaned since she was a child and lived in her uncle's house. Mother Jia took pity on her and would often pick her up to live in Jia's mansion.And when she came, she just lived with Jia Baoyu in the Bisha closet, and didn't have her own room, let alone a yard.

Suppressing a little jealousy in his heart, Shi Xiangyun took Lin Daiyu's hand and exclaimed: "It's really a beauty made of jade. With this skin, I finally understand where Chuitan Kepo comes from." He took Lin Daiyu's hand He refused to let go, and even reached out to touch her face.

Mother Jia burst out laughing, "You girl, where did you get this gangster look, you look like a street gangster." She was very happy to see the children loving each other, young girls should be In this way, it would be better to be more lively.

"Why don't you follow me to my Leisurely Pavilion to play after lunch. My brother gave me two rabbits the day before yesterday. You must have never seen them before." Daiyu has been in Jia's mansion for a few days, but Lin Ji Only saw her yesterday.Fortunately, he brought a lot of good things to Daiyu. As the saying goes, Lin Daiyu is not good at criticizing him.

Seeing that it was almost time, Mother Jia ordered the food to be served. "Yun girl is lucky. The mother Xu brought by your elder sister Lin is from the imperial dining room, and her craftsmanship is excellent." She only knew after listening to Daiyu yesterday that Lin Ji had prepared such a master for Lin Daiyu.

Shi Xiangyun thought secretly in his heart, this sister Lin is not easy, she can occupy such an important position in the old lady's heart, prepare a yard for her, and can bring her own cook, she came from the imperial dining room.I think she is different from me, even without her mother, she is still a delicate lady, not like me, her life is like rushes.

With three points of consideration, I sat down at the dinner table.Sanchun and Li Wan stayed together, and saw the maids serving dishes one by one, and before they walked in, the fragrance filled the whole hall.

Mother Xu's craftsmanship is not built, and the table is filled with all kinds of delicacies in a short while.Naturally, some guests are not vegan, and the combination of meat and vegetables is more colorful.The green and oily cold cucumber is slightly spicy, refreshing and appetizing; the pink and tender fish meat is wrapped with asparagus, which matches green and white, which is very pleasant; Deep-fried to a crisp, the cumin powder sprinkled on top is also very eye-catching; the three-finger-sized abalone is fed soft and glutinous, and it is served with mushrooms and rapeseed.

In front of Lin Daiyu was a cup of stewed soup, which was her standard dish.There is also a casserole on the table, the soup inside is stewed with ginseng chicken and Cordyceps sinensis, with an inexplicable strong aroma.

The maids helped the master to pick up the dishes, and Lin Daiyu obviously had her favorite dishes in front of her.Stir-fried lily corn with pine nuts, placed in a flour-fried basket, is fragrant and delicious; broccoli, king oyster mushrooms, and Chinese kale are all her favorite dishes.

This was also brought by Lin Ji every day. The weather in early winter was the most suitable for eating pot, but Lin Daiyu had a weak spleen and stomach, so everyone followed her to eat some refreshing dishes.

And Zhuangzi of the Lin family continuously sent all kinds of green vegetables, which greatly enriched Jiamu's dining table.It's not that Jia's mansion is short of this dish, it's just that there are not so many dishes in Jia's hothouse.And many of the recipes were made by Xu's mother, and the cooks of the Jia's mansion saw that there were such cooking techniques.Different from the various cumbersome cooking skills of Jia's family, Xu's mother is more advocating naturalness. She generally likes to use simple ingredients to bring out the taste of things themselves.

Shi Xiangyun didn't know what to eat, poking the rice with his chopsticks, he didn't know what he was thinking.Lin Daiyu drank the soup like medicine. At first she thought it was delicious, but if she drank too much, it became a burden.After the meal, there are bright red and huge strawberries.

This was also sent by Lin Ji the day before yesterday. Winter is the season for strawberries to grow, and these creamy strawberries sent by Lin Ji are round and lovely.Lin Daiyu stopped after eating two, and beckoned Sanchun and Shi Xiangyun to her Leisurely Residence for a reunion.

Mother Jia watched several girls gather together in a bustling manner, and then went out happily. She was in a happy mood and ate two more strawberries, which made Yuanyang complain for a while.After all, she is old and eating too much of these things is not good for her body.

Li Wan sent them into the Leisurely Pavilion, but instead of going in, turned around and went to his yard.

Lin Daiyu led them to the next cage, and lifted up her little rabbit cage like offering a treasure, "Look, this is the rabbit my brother bought for me, so cute, isn't it?"

I saw two fat pink and white rabbits curling up in a white-painted cage, their red eyes were moist, and their noses were constantly sniffing, looking for food.Li Ying handed them the small carrots in her hand, and carefully taught them how to feed them. Li Ying grew up with her father in the mountains since she was a child, and she knew this time well.

Shi Xiangyun also didn't come out, took the radish and fed it to the rabbit, and asked Liying how to take care of the animals in daily life.After finally feeding the little white rabbit, Xichun dragged Lin Daiyu to see her ecological basin.

After entering the room, Shi Xiangyun was shocked again.Looking at these decorations, everything she has seen and heard since entering the hospital made her heart ache.Thinking of the small house where I lived, with three or two servants around me.Lin Daiyu lives in this spacious garden, where you can see carefully decorated ornaments everywhere, but she does needlework every day at home to make ends meet.People are really different, she and Lin Daiyu are living two lives.

Just when she couldn't help crying, Lin Daiyu took her hand and pulled her in front of the ecological basin, "Sister Yun, look, this is my baby." It seemed that she could see that Shi Xiangyun was in a bad mood. That's right, Lin Daiyu has been taking her with her ever since.

Sanchun stayed with Lin Daiyu for a long time, eating, drinking, playing and playing, and when it was time for Lin Daiyu to take a nap, she got up to leave.But Shi Xiangyun, who was dragged by Lin Daiyu, stayed in Youran Pavilion.

Lying on the soft bed, smelling Lin Daiyu's incense, Shi Xiangyun subconsciously rubbed into her arms.Just like that, the two of them put their heads together and had a good night's sleep.
