Dream of the Red Chamber: Rong Dai

In a blink of an eye, seeing their sisters gathered together, chatting and talking about those asters, they stepped forward and said with a smile: "These pots of asters are just common things, and the rarity lies in their blooming in mid-winter, which is not a good thing." What. It’s fine if you reward it.”

After a pause, looking at the slightly puzzled faces of their sisters, he chuckled lightly and said, "I remember that the plum blossoms on the edge of the East Lake in our mansion are in full bloom, and there is even a rare green calyx among them. We should look for them in front of others. Come on."

Seeing that Concubine Tai was so excited, the sisters hurriedly nodded in agreement, Concubine Bei Jing nodded in satisfaction, a strangeness flashed in her eyes, her phoenix eyes glanced at Daiyu's indifferent face, and pointed The aster in the house said: "Let's take this aster as the topic. As for the conclusion of the result, I will make the decision."

As he said that, he ordered someone to light a dream sweet fragrance, and said with a smile: "This is the limit, if you can't do it, you will be willing to be punished, and I will reward you if you do it." The inkstone and other objects were brought up, and they were lined up one by one on the large table with carved begonias.

Daiyu was a little lazy and didn't want to write poems, but Princess Beijing was very interested, she sighed lightly, and then walked to the desk, but she didn't write any pens, she just played with the wolf hair, or watched the falling snow outside the window, faintly thinking Float into the distance.

Seeing that Meng Tianxiang was only two inches long, Xichun tugged at the corner of Daiyu's clothes, with a look of anxiety between her brows and eyes, and she looked at Daiyu flickeringly, as if she was asking why Daiyu don't do it.

Daiyu laughed lightly, turned to face the big case, lightly dipped in the ink, paused slightly, sorted out what she had done in her mind, and wrote down with a brush, all in one go.I didn't see the slightest slack, and just finished writing, the sweet fragrance of the dream is already the color of a lamp withered, only ashes and incense burner remain.

Concubine Bei Jing took the poems handed over by Qingmei, looked at them one by one, and nodded in admiration while reading, and said: "It really is excellent, I just saw today what it means to be talented, a woman who doesn't let her eyebrows look like a man, it's worthy Known as the model leader of the boudoir daughter."

Suddenly he looked at one of the poems in his hand, read them silently, savored them carefully again, reluctantly put down the poems, looked at Daiyu with a smile and said: "It's a good one. It's the same that blooms late." , this one is at the top of the list."

She ordered Lucui beside her to pass on Daiyu's poems to her sisters, and asked with a smile, "Do you think it's appropriate?"

Xichun put down the poems in her hands, went to the concubine, and said: "Sister Lin is the most talented person, this poem deserves to be the first, we are willing to bow down." The three of Yingchun Tanchun and Xiangyun also nodded in agreement.

Concubine Bei Jing pulled Dai Yu to her side, and said with a smile: "This is the result of everyone's unanimous and fair verification. If so, today's leader is Yu'er."

After a pause, his eyes turned to look out of the window with a bit of a teasing look, then he pointed at the clusters of bright, fat and moist colors on the edge of the East Lake, and said: "Today the leader will bring back a branch of green calyx with everyone."

Daiyu frowned slightly when she heard this, she didn't understand what Dowager Beijing meant.Concubine Bei Jing stroked her pink and tender cheeks, smiled slightly and said, "As I said earlier, our aster is nothing more than a thing cultivated by disobedient people, and it is not a rare thing. Only the green calyx , born with a quiet and elegant demeanor, it’s only now that I can live up to the joy of chanting poems today. I have to trouble Yu’er to take a trip.”

Seeing that the concubine was so excited, Daiyu looked at the falling snow outside the window, supported Xueyan, and said with a smile: "Since the concubine ordered, Daiyu should be respectful. Please wait here for a while." Then I want to help Zicuckoo's hand out of the pavilion.

The concubine got off the warm couch, gathered Daiyu's white fox fur goose-yellow cloak, and said with a smile: "The wind and snow outside are strong, be careful of your own bones, I will let Qingmei Lucui follow you. The two of them know the way in the garden, you Your girl will just stay here and wait for you."

After hearing this, Daiyu couldn't force her, so she nodded and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, please trouble Qingmei Lucui and my sisters to lead the way." go.

Walking along the shore of the East Lake, you can see a garden of plum blossoms, red and beautiful, and a green shadow floats in the distance. It really makes people forget the cold winter and see the beauty of spring flowers. "Thousands of flowers dare to bloom in the snow, One tree is the first to make the world spring'.

Lucui carefully supported Daiyu to move forward, and said: "Miss, be careful." Daiyu nodded lightly, lifted the hem of the cotton gown, carefully walked around the knee-high white snow, stepped on the blue stone steps, and walked up layer by layer .

There was no one waiting in the plum garden, the glistening white snow caused Daiyu to raise her small hands to cover her eyelids, she looked far away, but she saw plum blossoms all over.

The cold wind blows, the branches are lowered, and the roof tiles are faintly exposed. It seems to be a plum blossom in relief, but it is not a bit obtrusive.

Holding Daiyu's slender hands, she went to the depths of the plum grove. The plum blossoms that stood tall and proud seemed to have no end, like a deep sea of ​​flowers, too beautiful to behold.

Glancing at the green calyx close at hand, the green plums and green plums couldn't hide their admiration, "What a beautiful plum blossom."

Daiyu chuckled, pointed to the green calyx that rose high on the branch, looked at Qingmei with an innocent smile, and said, "The green calyx has a very high branch, how can we break it down?"

Qingmei Lucui looked at the green calyx with a sad face, the tall plum blossoms were elegant and beautiful, but they couldn't reach them.The lower branches are scattered, without the slightest beauty of vases.

Thinking hard for a moment, but couldn't find a way, looked at Lue in front of her, and said: "Young lady, wait here for a while, and wait for the servant girl and sister Lucui to go there to look for it. This piece of plum forest is huge, and it may be possible to find it. of."

Daiyu nodded and said with a smile: "You go on your own, you don't have to worry about anything here." Qingmei Lucui curtsied and left after hearing this, and went to look for her.

Daiyu stood quietly under the tree, her dark eyes quietly sized up the plum blossoms in the garden, a beautiful smile formed on the corners of her lips and cheeks, and faint pear dimples loomed.

After looking at it for a while, Daiyu didn't see Qingmei and Lucui coming back, so she got up and walked to the nearest low-branched plum blossom, stroking the frozen plum blossom with her delicate hands.

Suddenly, she felt naughty, pulled the branch and shook it, the ice and snow fell, and sprinkled into the sleeves of her neck, making Daiyu shrank her neck from the icy cold, but there was an uncontrollable sweet smile on her lips.

After brushing off the snow and ice, Daiyu stood quietly under the plum tree, white and green plum blossoms, like a jade beauty.The goose-yellow snow cap with windy fur wrapped around her delicate face with pink make-up and jade, and her smile was like a flower.

With low eyebrows and a slight smile, the brows and corners of the eyes are all elegant and refined, she turned around, but her feet slipped, her body immediately leaned forward, and she couldn't help crying out, seeing that she was about to hit a branch, she hurriedly closed her eyes Eyes, waiting for the pain of landing.

The expected pain did not come, but he fell into a warm embrace. When he was still in shock, he stepped flat and touched the warmth of the cloak. He retracted his little hand as if it was hot, and hurriedly broke away from the warm and generous Hugging her in her arms, her head drooped, waves of flushes hit her fair face, and she couldn't help being frightened and shy.

While meditating, the person in front of her looked at her pretty face, which turned red and white, with a smile in his heart, but more worry, and asked softly, "Have you ever been scared?"

But Daiyu didn't reply, she just wanted to get out of here quickly, so she didn't care about other things, she just walked forward in small steps, Shui Rong felt a little anxious in her heart, before she could think about it, she had already grabbed her slender wrist, gently With a light belt, he brought Daiyu in front of him.

Daiyu, who was shocked and angry, had ever encountered such a thing?Almost fainted in horror.Huarong's discolored little face was pale, and before she could utter a word, she was interrupted by a question, "Is your wrist better?" While talking, she looked at her pink and tender wrist carefully, seeing that there was no trace of redness and swelling on it, she was satisfied nodded.

I didn't want to disturb her, but I didn't know that Haosheng was taking care of me. If he wasn't here, would I have fallen down?The left wrist is not good yet, but today he is so naughty, Shui Rong is really angry and laughing in his heart, he doesn't know how to say it.

When Daiyu was pulled over by him like this, she was immediately stunned, how could she reply to his words?His face and body were as red as fire, and he was about to wave his arm away in a hurry, and said in surprise: "Let me go."

Hearing this, Shui Rong frowned, looked down at the hand that was still holding Daiyu's arm, felt a bit abrupt, and hurriedly let go of Daiyu's arms, trying to help her stand still, but saw Daiyu embarrassed and angry Look at it and stop.

A little embarrassed, he looked away, not daring to look directly at Daiyu's angry and embarrassing face.Daiyu's face was hot and red, half ashamed, half angry, biting her lower lip tightly, twisting the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, turned around quickly and left here, tears were rolling down her cheeks.

Shui Rongfang wanted to call out for Daiyu, but saw that Daiyu had gone far away, wandering around in the plum grove, seemed to have lost his way, could not help but curse in a low voice, and quickly followed Daiyu's footsteps.

Daiyu just walked forward quickly, not remembering the way she had walked before, brown torsos stood on it in the vast white snow, and when she was out of breath and stopped, she panicked immediately, tears dripped down her cheeks .

I saw the same scenery on all sides, except for the bluestone slab road that was cleaned up when I came here. Looking around, I saw white snow and red plums, which made my eyes dizzy.Xian Xiansu tightly clenched the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and turned around cautiously, seeing that she didn't see that person again, she let out a sigh of relief.

Suppressing the anxiety in my heart, I looked at the snowy footprints under my feet, stepped backwards, and followed the footprints, step by step, for fear of making a wrong step.
