A visit to Fangchun

Tanchun's heart suddenly became anxious.

Tonight is probably the only chance for me and Lin Daiyu to meet Concubine Yuan directly.

And with Lin Daiyu's disposition, if she wants her to deliberately please the concubine Yuan, in the heart of Jia Baoyu, the elder sister who "although they are called sisters and brothers, they are like mother and son", leaving a good impression that surpasses everyone else. Impossible.

But Xue Baochai can't just do nothing and become the No. 1 choice of Concubine Yuan's sister-in-law!

Tanchun bit his lip lightly.

No way, no way, what should I do?

While she was in a state of ecstasy, Concubine Yuan had already taken everyone's papers to read, and praised with a smile: "After all, the second sister Xue Lin's work is different, and Sister Yu can be on the same list."

At that moment, Jia Baoyu also finished the papers, and the brows of Concubine Yuan trembled, and she said with joy on her face: "Sure enough, I have benefited!"

Everyone knew that Baoyu's poem was well done, and that's why Concubine Yuan was so happy.They waited with bated breath for her to read.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Yuan refused to read by herself, she raised her eyes, and looked at Madam Wang first, Madam Wang didn't understand why, her face was full of bewilderment.Concubine Yuan sighed in her heart, and then looked at Jiamu again, and saw Jiamu's eyes immediately drifted to Tanchun.

Concubine Yuan understood, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

It seems that grandma is very satisfied with this concubine sister in her heart.That being the case, you might as well take a look yourself.

Because of lightly opening her vermilion lips, she said in a rambling voice: "I heard my mother and grandmother say several times that the third younger sister is promising. Come on, and read Baoyu's apricot curtain for me to everyone."

Jia Tanchun was distracted when he suddenly heard that his name was being called, his heart moved, he quickly bowed his knees respectfully, and agreed.Then, according to Shen Nanny's instruction, he calmly and naturally crossed his arms and straightened his body, his chin was slightly retracted, and respectfully walked to the bottom of the imperial steps, raised his hands high, and took Baoyu's paper from the concubine Cai.

Turning around, standing up straight, I found Xinglian in the four poems, and read aloud: "Xinglian invites guests to drink, and there is a villa in Wangwang. Lingling geese water, mulberry elm and swallow beams. A bed of spring leeks and greens, Ten miles of rice and flowers are fragrant. There is no hunger in a prosperous age, so why bother with farming and weaving."

After reading it, Jia Tanchun couldn't help admiring it.

In the previous life, everyone read Dream of the Red Chamber and said that Cao Gong's poems were not very good.The evidence is the poems in Dream of Red Mansions, and there is nothing particularly amazing or stunning.

But he does not appear in front of everyone as a poet or poet, he is a family.His purpose is to describe the world in his mind, those flowers and trees, those palaces and buildings, those twists and turns of the secular human relationship, and those lives that were once bright and brilliant but finally turned miserable.His poems have always served his plots and characters.For example, in the several poems in this episode, Li Wan's cohesion, Tanchun's humility, Yingchun's far-fetched, Xichun's birth, every word and every sentence closely fits the characters' personalities.

Until this apricot curtain is in sight.

The sub-themes are beautiful, the rhythm is regular; the rhythm is cheerful, and the words are playful; it is almost done in one go, and the ode is very smooth and natural.

This poem is put here, and it looks like Lin Daiyu's style set by Cao Gong, not Baoyu-this is Cao Gong's most successful place!Thousands of faces, thousands of hands, thousands of styles.

Now let’s talk about Jia Tanchun’s thoughts—if this poem is really written by Jia Baoyu, it’s not just the concubine Yuan, I’m afraid Jia Zheng and others will celebrate it with their foreheads, sighing that the Jia family has a successor.

It’s just a pity, when you put it together with the first three poems, how do you think this one stands out, it’s as good as a fake one—although Daiyu doesn’t often compose such bright poems, and she’s so lonely that she won’t sing them lightly Holy, but people who know the bottom of the crowd can tell at a glance that this is her work.

It's just that now is the time for hello, me, everyone, so everyone naturally covered their ears and refused to admit that it was a ghostwriting.Quan should just hand in a good paper to Concubine Yuan so that she can take it back to the palace and please the emperor in private.

Concubine Yuan naturally understood, she just nodded with a smile on her face, and praised: "Baoyu has really improved, this song is the crown of the former."

After Tanchun returned the paper, he bowed and retreated, and then went back to his seat.

Concubine Yuan did not allow her to leave, and ordered with a smile: "Third Younger Sister, please transcribe all the poems just now, and let the elders outside have a look."

The matter of Tanchun's good calligraphy is indeed known to everyone, and it is indeed her responsibility to do it at this moment.

Although Mrs. Wang understood this, she was a little unhappy after all, so she lowered her head and took a sip of tea.Seeing the opportunity, Aunt Xue leaned over and laughed in a low voice: "Your mother is very charming."

Although it was a ridiculed joke, but in Mrs. Wang's ears, she knew that it was the younger sister of the first relative comforting herself: that concubine daughter is now in the limelight, so what can I do?Aren't you being used as a pen and ink by your own daughter?She became the master and empress, but Yuan Chun crawled out of her own belly!

Mrs. Wang's complexion gradually calmed down, and a smile appeared on her lips.

Under the guidance of the concubine Cai, Jia Tanchun sat down beside him, melted the ink and picked up the pen, and copied on the colored paper more than a dozen poems written by the concubine Yuan, all the sisters, and Baoyu.

In the process of copying, Jia Tanchun calmed down slowly and made a decision: see if the imperial concubine Yuan gave any hints, if so, adapt accordingly; if not, just look for opportunities to make trouble out of nothing.

After transcribing it, Jia Tanchun respectfully praised it and handed it to Concubine Yuan.

Concubine Yuan sat on the throne and looked up at her carefully.

It has always been heard that this concubine girl is bold and careful, neat and straightforward, and her grandmother trusts her very much.When I saw it today, I found that the eyes are handsome and the eyebrows are trimmed, and I forget the customs.

Now the three sisters are dressed in exactly the same way, it looks dull on Yingchun, and a little too rich on Xichun, but this golden dress, matched with jewels and emerald heads, makes the three girls look elegant and luxurious .

Concubine Yuan was in a daze.

She seemed to have seen this concubine's appearance before, but she couldn't remember who she looked like.

Seeing her wandering eyes, Tanchun knew she was in a daze, so he blinked.

Concubine Yuan came back to her senses, smiled at her slightly, looked down at the colored paper, and couldn't help but be full of praise: "It looks like you have put in a lot of work. How long does Third Younger Sister practice calligraphy in a day?"

Tan Chunsu bowed his head and replied: "I write when I have time during the day, and I have to practice for an hour at night."

Concubine Yuan nodded with a smile, and encouraged her: "Now that the younger sisters are getting older, they should not lose the homework of cultivating affection. At the same time, they should learn to do some serious things from grandmother and mother. The third younger sister is smart, so I don't need to ask for these words. In the future, my sister will still count on you to honor my grandmother and mother for me."

Tanchun is only one word.

Jia Mu looked down at Concubine Yuan willing to talk to Tan Chunduo, and was very happy.But seeing that Tanchun didn't reply cleverly, he hated iron for nothing.

The mandarin ducks stood by Jiamu's side, so they naturally understood, and the corners of their mouths could not help but twitch.

The three girls eat everything, but they don't suffer.The old lady is still worried about her!

Seeing Tanchun's respectful attitude, Concubine Yuan felt satisfied, so she lowered her head to read those poems again.

When copying the poem, Tanchun intentionally copied Lin Daiyu's five rhythms before Xue Baochai's seven rhythms.So Concubine Yuan first saw Lin Daiyu's, and then thought of Xing Lian Zaiwang's lyrics, her eyebrows twitched.

Even if she is not good at poetry, she can tell at a glance that these two capitals are written by Lin Daiyu. Moreover, this one of her own is very perfunctory, but she puts her heart into that one.

How good does Baoyu have to be to act like this?

Concubine Yuan raised her brows slightly, thinking of what her grandmother and mother said to her respectively, she hesitated.

Jia's mother made it very clear: "I gave me all the money from the Lin family, except for the garden when visiting relatives, and your envoy in the palace - you must have realized that you have a lot of money recently. The Lin family has nothing else. The only thing Lin Ruhai entrusted to me was to marry his daughter to Baoyu."

The Lin family's money has already been spent.People, whether to marry or not depends entirely on the Jia family and one's own conscience.

Mrs. Wang analyzed it very clearly to Concubine Yuan: "Your father is like this. If you have other blessings in the future, the whole family will count on your younger brother. He has a temperament of pity and tenderness. If his wife is not strong Zhou Quan, I'm afraid that a Rongguo mansion can turn him over in the future. In terms of stability and peace, but also in terms of closeness, only Bao girl is the most suitable. Besides, Pan'er of the Xue family can only be looked after by his sister. This aunt is the only one who has the final say on family affairs. If you marry Bao girl, you are marrying the entire Xue family."

Therefore, in addition to a capable and thoughtful sister-in-law who is in line with the family's norms, the Xue family also has the wealth of the royal family.

In comparison, the latter is obviously more attractive.

Concubine Yuan was pondering, while watching Xue Baochai's Qilu: "Fangyuan is built to the west of the imperial city, and the sun is shrouded in auspicious clouds. Gao Liuxi moves the orioles out of the valley, and waits for the phoenix to come to the ceremony while repairing the huang. Xiaohua Yinglong returns to save time. Rui Zao Xiancai is full of colorful brushes, so why dare to say goodbye when you are ashamed."

Every word praises the saint, every sentence praises the saint, every moment praises the saint.Steady and humble as if he has gone through all the world.

However, she is indeed very steady and well aware of current affairs - very suitable for assisting Baoyu to prop up the Rongguo Mansion.

Concubine Yuan felt that her mind was slightly tilted towards Xue's side.

Jia Tanchun stood aside and found that Concubine Yuan had a different appreciation for Baochai.After a slight pause, he said, "Big sister is graceful and luxurious, and sister Bao admires her very much."

admire?I?

Concubine Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood.Tanchun was telling himself quietly: Baochai is very envious of her status in the palace, and Baochai really wants to enter the palace.

Why didn't anyone tell me this news?Even if the mother didn't know, why didn't the grandmother notice it?

Moreover, did Baochai want to enter the palace herself, or did Aunt Xue also want her daughter to enter the palace?

It seems that I have to carefully ask the nuns who have been teaching the rules these days.

As soon as the thought turned in her mind, Concubine Yuan suppressed it, looked at Tanchun with a gentle smile, and said softly, "What does my sister think of me?"

Jia Tanchun never thought that Concubine Yuan would actually ask him the question. His face turned pale, he bit his lips, and lowered his head, he said: "It's not easy for a big sister. Our dear sisters, of course, we can't think of anything else except our heartache. .”
