Daiyu reads novels every day

Daiyu

Small green embroidered tree, flower letter begins to pass

In the spring of the second year of Taihe, Gusu Linfu.

Lin Daiyu took a nap at noon, and when she woke up, her cheeks were flushed, and she was still a little dazed.Hearing the movement, Zijuan was cleaning up the house outside, and hurried in. Seeing that Daiyu was awake, she lifted up the two screen drawers on the window and said with a smile, "Young lady is awake. If you don't wake up, everyone will be scared." time to go."

Daiyu first asked, "Who is it?" Seeing that Zijuan just smiled, she immediately understood, and said with a sneer, "Who am I? It's worth your concern."

Zijuan smiled and said, "I'm just helping others remember."

Daiyu said in embarrassment: "It's amazing, you girl has a big heart. I will go back to my father tomorrow. Since you are big-hearted, why not let you go with someone."

Zijuan said with a smile, "I'm Miss's girl, if you want me to go, unless Miss follows others first."

Even though Daiyu was eloquent, she still had feelings in her heart. She couldn't restrain her shame, so she simply said, "You are so powerful, I can't say no to you." Then she lay down on her back, ignoring people.

Zijuan didn't take it seriously, burned incense and put the stove cover on, and said in a low voice: "I heard from Lianxi that the Wuming Garden is gradually taking shape now. After His Royal Highness returned from our mansion, he asked someone to dig it out. When the bamboo stream comes out, it is said that there are thousands of beautiful bamboos in the Jiajian, and the environment is very quiet, and the young lady will definitely like it when she sees it."

Although Daiyu was lying on her side, she listened carefully, and said with a sneer, "Why do I like it?"

Zijuan knew her temper, and said with a smile: "It's not the last time that His Highness came down, and I just heard the young lady talking through the screen. The young lady said that her favorite bamboo sticks are hidden by a curving fence, which makes her feel quieter than other places."

"I'm talking about a few stalks of bamboo, but I didn't say anything about beautiful bamboos in Jiajian. Do you know that it's for my sake?" Despite what Daiyu said, she got up and sat down in front of the mirror. The maid waited on her to wash and dress up.

This quiet spring afternoon is about to pass, the afterglow of the evening light shines on the forest, a pair of big swallows darted into the corridor, folded their wings, Zijuan just walked over, and was about to put down the curtain, when two women came from a distance on the stone path.

Zijuan entered the room and said to Daiyu who was playing chess records: "I knew that he came for the young lady. Look, isn't this here?"

The two women were originally from the county prince's mansion, and they brought the gift brought by the prince Yong, and showed it to Lin Ruhai, and now they brought it here in person.Not expensive things, but delicate food items.

Daiyu said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness, for your kindness." Then Zijuan was asked to send the two women to tea.Zijuan saw that it was the girls outside who were dividing the monthly silver, so she grabbed two handfuls of change and gave them to the two women, and sent them out in person. When she came back, she put down the curtain and leaned against it with a stone lion. When she entered the house, she saw Daiyu looking at her. Staring at the pile of gadgets.

Zijuan laughed and said, "Miss, what else do you have to say now?" She walked up to have a look, and said again: "It's all Miss likes it, and it's really difficult to put such effort into it."

Daiyu messed up the chess game and said angrily, "Just talk nonsense. He is just because of the teacher-student friendship with his father."

Zijuan said: "Okay, I don't want to talk nonsense, I just ask you one thing."

"What's the matter?"

Zijuan thought about it for a while, but then said: "I will ask His Royal Highness the County King another day."

Daiyu said angrily, "It's up to you."

Zijuan said with a smile: "I know that Miss has something in her heart that she can't ask. I will ask for Miss. Miss doesn't say that she praises me, but she loses her temper."

The master and the servant were arguing playfully, but someone came from the front yard, saying that Father Lin was looking for Daiyu to talk.

For a while Daiyu went to the study, and saw her father sitting alone at the desk, his expression uncertain, as if he was worried.

Lin Ruhai was imprisoned for treason by the King of Zhongjun and suffered a lot of crimes. Although his life was fine, he was very emaciated. Since he was transferred to Gusu by Emperor Jingyuan Yongzhan, he has been raised for half a year without any improvement.Seeing her daughter coming, Lin Ruhai smiled kindly, and asked her what she did today, her cough was better, and she asked if she still liked the stuff His Royal Highness sent her.

Daiyu answered one by one, hesitated for a moment, and asked again: "Father, what did His Highness the Duke of the County say to you?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head slowly, and said: "His Royal Highness didn't say anything about you, but just asked me some poems." However, Xisi said nothing that was not about Daiyu.

Daiyu didn't know whether she was relieved or disappointed.

Lin Ruhai knew well that the new emperor put himself in Lianghuai again, not only because of government affairs, but also because he was worried about Prince Yong.After hesitating for a moment, he still asked: "Daiyu, what do you think of His Royal Highness?" Then he said: "The mother should have told you this, but your mother left early, so I had to ask this question for my father." .”

Daiyu was ashamed and angry at first, but then she felt sad when she heard it, because she said: "How about your Highness, how can a daughter make judgments lightly?"

Lin Ruhai observed her words, and knew what was on her daughter's mind, so she said, "His Royal Highness is now repairing a garden, and there are several residences for female relatives that I don't know how to arrange. If you are bored at home, you might as well go and relax." Seeing that his daughter was about to refuse, he said again: "I don't know how long my father's body can last, but I have to make plans for you."

Daiyu wept on her knees and said, "Daughter, I wish my father a long life."

Lin Ruhai sighed, stroked the top of his hair, and said nothing to comfort him.

Seeing Daiyu come back with red eye circles, Zijuan was taken aback, and hurriedly called the little girl to bring hot water, and personally helped Daiyu to wash up, then peeled off the freshly boiled hot eggs, and gently rolled them on the eye sockets. , said: "Why did you cry again? If you don't pay attention, your eyes should be swollen tomorrow."

Daiyu changed her middle clothes, nestled under the quilt, closed her eyes and was played by Zijuan, and did not speak.

Zijuan asked: "But what did His Royal Highness say to the master?"

Daiyu shook her head, took Zijuan's hand, held back her tears and said, "My dear sister, sleep with me on the bed tonight."

Zicuckoo naturally did not refuse.

It was night, when the master and the servant were sleeping together, Daiyu told the story of the past and Yongchen one by one.How did you escape to the Northwest to report the letter, how did you meet each other under the moon, how did Yong Chen treat her indifferently after returning to Beijing, how did you cry when you met Jia's mansion... If it’s all about these, Dai Yu knew that Yongchen had a hard time during that time, but who knew that he left without saying goodbye and went south alone.

Daiyu had lost her temper in Jia's residence, and she was waiting for Yongchen to persuade her, but unexpectedly he walked away.Her anger was extraordinary, and she actually felt somewhat sad.

"I wonder why His Majesty the Prince is so careful, so it's for you to make amends." Zi Juan first smiled, and hearing Daiyu's sadness, he said, "I know Miss's heart. It's just that Miss doesn't know His Royal Highness's heart. I must ask for the miss."

Daiyu turned her back and said angrily, "Who asked you to ask him?" Then she said, "I'm just guarding our Lin residence."

Zijuan said: "This is an angry word. Is it true that Miss will guard her all her life?"

"So what about a lifetime?" Daiyu said, "It's like sister Cai Hui worshiping Buddha, or Princess Roulan becoming a Taoist priest. If they can do it, I can't do it?"

After hearing this, Zijuan didn't dare to persuade her any more, for fear of making her serious, she just coaxed her with good words and persuaded her to go to bed early.But how can Daiyu sleep?She closed her eyes and dozed off, thinking of the many novels she had read on the green paper, and now she realized that they were all beautiful dreams. How could she, a living Lin Daiyu, be as happy as what was written on those green papers?Just stories of self-deception.

Zicuckoo is caring.After a few days, His Highness the Prince of the County came to pick her up in person and asked Daiyu to enjoy the garden.

Zicuckoo stopped outside the curtain and said with a smile: "I have a question, if your highness answers well, then this servant will leave. If your highness doesn't answer well, although our Lin family is not as good as your highness, we still have a few. Hard-backed, I'm afraid Miss won't go out today."

Yong Chen smiled and said, "Excuse me."

"Dare to ask Your Highness," Zijuan was still smiling, without losing his courtesy, but his eyes turned cold, "Why do you feel humble if you give up your respect?"
