Daiyu of the Red Chamber owes no one

In the early morning of this day, Jia Min personally sent Daiyu outside the palace gate, and saw Daiyu get on the mule cart.Led by the nuns in the palace, they drove into the palace according to the arranged order.According to the rules of this dynasty, each big draft girl can bring two people with her, and the small draft girl can bring one person with her.Therefore, Daiyu took Xueyan and Baoqin with her, Xueyan was her personal servant girl, and Baoqin was filled in as Yinglian's companion.

Because last year Jia Min sent someone to Suzhou to pick up the Feng family, and now the Feng family has gone to Beijing, with Jia Min as the security guard for the fifth rank of Yinglian, the Feng family is naturally very happy.So now Li Han has already given off all the appointments, and is just waiting for the master to finish the girl's election and make a big gift for himself.Because Yinglian was waiting to be married outside the palace, Daiyu was not allowed to enter the palace.

It is also said that when the Feng family went to Beijing, they met Xue Qiu and brought his sister Xue Baoqin to Beijing to get married.Xue Qiu was originally a branch of the Xue family, a wealthy businessman in Jinling, so he also brought goods to Beijing, and brought Xue Baoqin's dowry and other things. He didn't want to bring too much property to attract people to covet him.Unfortunately, there are experts from the beggar gang on Feng's boat, how can the gangsters win?He had to steal the chicken and lose the rice. He was severely reprimanded and sent to the nearest government office.

It turned out that Lin Da went to Jinling to report to Li Longtou in person according to Lin Ruhai's wishes.Li Longtou thought that it would take some time for Li Han to go from engagement to grand ceremony, so he sent Boss Qin to come first.Boss Qin is the owner of Jinling Qinji Silk and Satin Factory. For several years, he cooperated with Lin Ruhai to buy silkworm cocoons, and asked Zhen Yingjia to donate a sum of money for disaster relief.Li Longtou was thinking about Li Han's marriage, and he was talking about the accompanying student of the daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, so he needed some new materials for the engagement, so Boss Qin brought some high-quality materials and other congratulatory gifts from the beggar gang to Beijing.Those bandits were naturally in the hands of Boss Qin and the others.

Thanks to the help of Boss Qin and others, Xue Qiu and his party were spared a catastrophe, so I must thank Boss Qin a thousand times.A group of people went to Beijing together, and Mei Hanlin disliked that the Xue family lost his father and would sooner or later fall, so he didn't want to accept this marriage.After Lin Da returned to the mansion, he talked about what he saw on the road, and what happened to the Xue Qiu brothers and sisters also spread to Dai Yu's ears.Daiyu thought that Xue Baoqin was a good person, and thought of the friendship in her previous life, so she borrowed Lin Ruhai's name to write a letter to Chen Yong, who was working in the Imperial Academy, and Chen Yong told Mei Hanlin that Xue's family had come to marry.The Mei family saw that Xue's family had several branches in the capital, so they never let Baoqin take office without any promises like in the previous life, but broke off the engagement with Baoqin.

Bao Qin is 11 years old this year. When she is most innocent and romantic, how can she reach the age of marriage?It's just that the Xue family knew that the Mei family was afraid of regretting the marriage, and went to Beijing first, intending to take advantage of the power of the Rongguo Mansion to force the Mei family to agree to the promise.The relationship between Xue Qiu's first room and the Rongguo Mansion's twists and turns, who is willing to really help them?In her previous life, Xue Baoqin lived in Jia's mansion for several years until Daiyu's death, but she still waited for Mei Hanlin to be transferred back to Beijing. Daiyu didn't know whether she married Mei Hanlin's son.

But Daiyu is extremely bullying when she only thinks about the Mei family.Mei Hanlin's son is a man, so getting married a few years later is not worth anything, so Mei Hanlin took his family and let him go, not caring about Xue Baoqin wasting his time alone.The world criticizes women, but Xue Baoqin has no faults or omissions. After staying in Beijing for a few more years, people say that she is only afraid of shortcomings, so the Mei family does not want her to marry.Because of Daiyu's help in this life, Mei Hanlin's family's face was exposed quickly. Chen Yong asked when they would get married, and the Mei family hurriedly annulled the engagement.

A group of women in the Grand View Garden in the previous life said that Baoqin was the one who loved to hang out with Daiyu the most, and she didn't have any dirty thoughts, but treated Daiyu sincerely.Even Xue Baochai often said sourly: What are you doing here again? Why don't you go find your sister Lin.Just looking at the friendship Baoqin treated her in her previous life, Daiyu was willing to lend a hand.With Daiyu's ability in this life, she can easily mediate the matter between the Mei family and the Xue family without Lin Ruhai's presence.But Daiyu didn't want to be talked about, so she borrowed Lin Ruhai's name to ask Chen Yong to help Baoqin break off the engagement.

For this matter, Jia Min also laughed at Daiyu and said that she was nosy, no matter how nice Miss Xue looks, she is also a relative of the Xue family, what has it to do with us?Daiyu laughed and said, "It's just a little effort, and it's nothing but doing good deeds and accumulating virtue."Jia Min didn't know that in the previous life, when wind, frost, and swords were fierce, Bao Qin was one of the few girls who treated Daiyu with sincerity.

The Xue Qiu brothers and sisters are sensible people, seeing through the Mei family's character, they don't feel sorry for retiring from a noble family, but are very grateful to the Lin family, so Xue Qiu prepared a generous gift to thank the Lin family.And because Yinglian is getting married this year, and Daiyu has no companion to read, Baoqin becomes Daiyu's companion.In this way, not only did Baoqin have the status of accompaniment to Shangshu Lingqianjin, but even Xueqiu's business was due to the Lin family's relationship, and there were fewer people who came forward to exploit Luo Chi.

He also said that after entering the palace that day, he was assigned a room according to his identity.In terms of status, Xichun is the daughter of the Duke's family, and Xiangyun is the daughter of the Hou family, both of whom are from high backgrounds.Although Lin Ruhai has not been conferred a marquis title, who dares to underestimate Lin Shangshu's power?The servant who assigned the house thought: Living with those girls from small families, there is no need to offend Ms. Lin.Therefore, when arranging the house, Daiyu arranged with the daughters of these noble families, and became neighbors with Xichun and Xiangyun.And the children of second-rank officials like Sun Qing and Su Su live in a remote place, and the house is not as spacious as Daiyu's.

The two maids Xichun brought with her were Ruhua and Caiping; cousins.

After staying here, every day there will be nurturing mothers to teach the rules.But the draftees are all girls in their teens. When they are the most lively, in addition to learning the rules, they also walk around and socialize. Some of them who have known each other before participating in the election also talk together.In her spare time, Su Su likes to come to Daiyu to ask for help.

It has only been three days since he entered the palace, and after a few days of getting familiar with the rules, it is the first round of the general election.The first round was very simple, but in the imperial garden, six people lined up, walked up to Concubine Wu and the other princes and concubines to take a look at their appearance and body, those with flat heads and full faces were easy to pass.Daiyu, Xichun, Xiangyun, Niu Hui, Su Su, Sun Qing, etc. all left their signs easily.

After the first round, it was the nurturing mother who taught the rules again.The second round of general elections is scheduled for half a month later.These days, the show girls are also very familiar with each other, they are speculative, and they often get together to talk and play after learning the rules.Among them, because Baochai and Baoqin sisters are just accompanied by beautiful girls, their appearance and demeanor are higher than many beautiful girls, which makes people talk about it.

Because this year's draft is scheduled for spring, and this year is a rare warm spring, the exotic flowers in the imperial garden are blooming very well, this time the draft will be held in the imperial garden.Concubine Wu Gui chose a place with an excellent view in Mingrenyu Garden, surrounded by colorful curtains, and made it a place for selection.Inside the colorful curtain, the girls can walk around. As for outside the colorful curtain, there are often princes and grandchildren wandering around. Except for those who are bold and have ulterior motives, who would dare to go out?One is smashed by someone, and if he does not die, his reputation will be ruined.

But she said that after learning the rules that day, the nurturing mother said: "The grace of the imperial concubine, thinking of the hard work of all the girls learning the rules, today I have a half-day vacation. The flowers and plants in this garden are hard to find. Today, the weather is very good. , Let you go back earlier, so you can take a stroll. It’s all for the future. If the girl puts up the sign, she can remember the scenery of the imperial garden, so she can enter the palace and stand for election.

The only thing is, inside the curtain, you are allowed to make trouble for half a day, but outside, no one is allowed to go out.Only Xiao Xingchai took a wrong step outside, you all know your own death, so be careful to bring disaster to your family.Hurry up, I'll just let you go shopping for half a day. From tomorrow onwards, you'll still learn the rules. There are many rules in this palace, and you'll have to cheer up from tomorrow onwards. "

After hearing this, all the noble ladies answered in unison.The foster mother nodded in satisfaction, and let the girls disperse.

The first round of girls who had their cards placed in the palace once entered the palace, and talked about the inside of the palace, even the imperial garden.Today, half a day is given for the noble ladies to visit the Imperial Garden, which was originally given by Concubine Wu Gui.In the words of Concubine Wu Gui: Who knows how many people will be branded after a few days?Since the rest of these women entered the second round at least, and let them see the majesty of the royal garden, it is not in vain to enter the palace for a while to gain a better understanding.That's why the words of the foster mother came into being.

This year, due to the fact that there are several age-appropriate concubines selected by the emperor's grandsons, the contestants are more attentive than in previous years.Among them are gentle, lively, charming and pretty.In the past, these noble ladies would not dare to wander around except to say a word or two in the houses of acquaintances, but today they got such words, and they all flew to the imperial garden like birds out of their cages.

Both Daiyu and Su Su didn't want to be selected, so Daiyu was tired of these things.It's just that Su Su has always been a lively person, and if she got such a talk, she would desperately want to pester Daiyu to go shopping in the garden.

Su Su said: "Although we have also come to this royal garden for palace banquets, we only have the plum garden to visit every year during festivals. The other gardens are just fake flowers tied with silk and satin. I'm afraid this is the only spring day in this life." If you don’t go to visit the imperial garden, Baoqin and Xueyan will accompany you to participate in the election for nothing? Why don’t you be lazy today, why don’t you get up soon?” Saying that, she came to La Daiyu.Daiyu had no choice but to go out with a few people.

When I was about to come out, I saw many pretty girls in the courtyard, which was a bit better than the spring scenery in the garden.Daiyu raised her eyes and saw that Xichun and Xiangyun were talking together.In her previous life, Xiangyun loved to target herself, and Daiyu didn't like to be stubborn with her. Although Xichun had a cold temper, she didn't hurt others behind her back, so Daiyu went to say hello to Xichun, and then she wanted to turn around and talk to Su Su.

Before Daiyu lifted her feet, she suddenly saw a pair of jade-colored butterflies in front of her, as big as a round fan, flying up and down in the wind, very interesting.Daiyu smiled when she saw it. Su Su was lively, but she wanted to pounce on her.Daiyu saw the expression in Baochai's eyes, she also wanted to flutter the butterfly, and instantly remembered the incident of Dicui Pavilion in her previous life.So Daiyu pulled Su Su with a wink.Although Su Su didn't know, she went in, but she thought that Daiyu had always had ideas, and she was afraid that she had other intentions, so Su Su stopped in her tracks.

Sure enough, Baochai saw that Yudie was interesting, and wanted to jump to play, so she took out a fan from her sleeve and threw herself down on the grass.I saw that pair of butterflies, rising and falling, coming and going, about to cross the river.It turns out that there is a place of running water in the imperial garden, and a pool has been accumulated here, like a piece of emerald. There is also a water pavilion called Cuihuating, with corridors on all sides, covering the water in the pool.

Baochai followed the butterflies on tiptoe until they reached the emerald pavilion by the pool. Seeing the butterflies fly away, Baochai was just about to come back when she heard someone talking in the pavilion.

Baochai has the advantage of being well-informed and knowledgeable. Whoever he is, after seeing him once or twice, and hearing his voice once or twice, Baochai can remember this person.As for who was speaking at the booth, it was Sun Qing who was chosen to be the governor of the south of the Yangtze River, Sun Yu's family.

Baochai only heard Sun Qing say: "Since that's the case, I thank Miss Niu. In the future, I will only look after Miss Niu. The two of us will take care of each other, and I will not be alone or lonely anymore." Baochai was surprised when she heard this. She was already agile, so she knew at a guess that the Niu girl Sun Qing was talking about must be Niu Hui from the Zhenguo Bull's family, and Sun Qing said that in the future, only the Niu girl would follow her lead, so the two would form an alliance to help each other.Hearing this, Baochai regretted coming late and only listened to half of it.

Then I heard that Niu Hui said: "Since we decided to help each other, we are sisters who treat each other with sincerity. If you say that the leader of the horse is not the leader of the horse, we have no status."

After hearing this, Sun Qing laughed and said: "Miss Niu said that very harshly, it's because of my birth." Then she was surprised and said: "Oh! Let's just talk and carefully let irrelevant people hear! Why don't you put Push away all these things, that is, when people see us here, they just think we are joking."

When Baochai heard this outside, she was startled again, thinking: How can such insidiousness be heard?As soon as the key was opened, seeing me here, I didn't hear a few words, but they misunderstood how much I knew. Wouldn't it be white to make enemies?It's just that I was in a hurry to hide now, but I didn't expect to be able to hide in time, so I had to use a way to "escape the golden cicada's shell".I thought again: Now that Baoqin is reading with Miss Lin, she and I are sisters. This is a way.

Before he finished thinking, he only heard a creak, and the scorpion pushed it away.Baochai stepped on his feet deliberately, and shouted with a smile, "Qin'er! I see where you can hide!" As he said, he deliberately rushed forward.

As soon as Niu Hui and Sun Qing pushed open the window, they saw Xue Baochai, and both of them were startled.Baochai didn't wait for the two to open their mouths, and hurriedly blessed him and said, "You two girls, have you ever seen Miss Baoqin next to Miss Lin in Lin Shangshu's house?"

Sun Qing's face darkened and he said, "Where is Miss Qin and Miss Se? What are you doing here alone?"

Baochai smiled again and said, "Miss Baoqin and I were cousins, so we had half a day off today. I thought our sisters would talk for half a day. Just now I saw her squatting by the pool and playing in the water. Why? Suddenly, she went around and disappeared again? Maybe she got naughty and got behind some rockery, I will go and look for it. The second aunt is leaving." As he said, he walked away, laughing in his heart: this matter is covered up I wonder how the two of them are doing?

Niu Hui and Sun Qing believed it when they heard it.I thought to myself: It's nothing to let a companion reader next to Miss Shi Jia hear what I said just now.Even if we find a time to tell her not to spread the word, and then pass on the news that the family members come to Xue's house to say hello, even if Xue Baochai is dead, she will not dare to spread today's words.Otherwise, do you want to continue the Xue family's business idea?

But Miss Lin is different: her family has the father of Shangshu who is now in control of the real power; she also has a younger brother who is accompanied by the third emperor's grandson;If the words just now were heard by the people around her, there would be endless troubles.

And because Sun Qing had learned how powerful Daiyu was in the south of the Yangtze River, Daiyu was only six years old at that time, and she cut a lot of face of the Sun family, but everyone thought she was decent.Niu Hui was ridiculed by Daiyu's companion, Yinglian, at the birthday banquet of Princess Dongping. Although the two of them did not admit it, they felt a little lower towards Daiyu in their hearts. They were even more afraid that what they said just now would be known by Daiyu.

They were at a loss, but they saw Daiyu, Baoqin, Xueyan, Su Su and her two maids; Xichun, Xiangyun and the maids and their 11 people all came swaying.Just now Baochai blamed Shuidongyin and thought he had a plan, but saw Baoqin coming from a distance.Judging from the direction Baoqin was coming towards, she was absolutely determined not to be by the pool just now. Needless to say, Niu and Sun Ernu also knew that Xue Baochai was lying.

Baochai was also at a loss when he saw Daiyu and his party, his face blushed, and he encouraged him to regain his composure.If it hadn't been for the fact that Jia's servants in the previous life were not strict with their mouths, Daiyu would never have known that Dicuiting Baochai overheard Xiaohong and Zhuier's conversation, turned around and pushed it on herself.

Unexpectedly, there is no Grand View Garden in this life, and a pair of jade-colored butterflies suddenly flew in this imperial garden.Thinking of Baochai fluttering butterflies in her previous life, Daiyu falsely accused her of a story. In this life, she saw Baochai fluttering butterflies again, but she thought it was interesting, so she came to have a look.I don't want to think that the Cuihuating Pavilion and the Dicui Pavilion in the Grand View Garden are surrounded by water in this life, and there are usually people talking about secrets in it, and Baochai usually hears it, but I don't know who she led the disaster to in this life.But seeing the look on her face just now when she saw her group, Daiyu knew that she must be repeating the old trick.

Thinking of this, Daiyu glanced at Baoqin, smiled softly and said: "Qin'er, you just said you want to visit the water pavilion, do you want to visit now?"

Xiangyun didn't know what happened, so he stepped forward and said, "Sister Bao, why did you disappear as soon as we stopped, so it's easy for me to find. No matter how beautiful the scenery of the imperial garden is, it should be more lively. We can only walk around together." interesting."

When Baochai heard Xiangyun's words, she was very anxious. Didn't she tell Niu Hui and Sun Qing that she had been here for a while?Besides, Baoqin was with many people in this group, so it was even more difficult for her to be alone by the pool.
