Daiyu's wife in the Red Chamber

Halfway through the journey, Mrs. Hou of Jinxiang lost her anger and suddenly ordered people to go back.

"Ma'am, are we not going to the Nan'an Palace?" The woman who was accompanying the sedan chair wondered. She was the woman who bribed the servants of the Rongguo Mansion to inquire about the information, and she knew the intention of Madam Marquis of Jinxiang to find Princess Nan'an.

Madam Hou of Jinxiang said in the sedan chair: "Don't go, go back to the mansion first, let me discuss with the master first."

The mother-in-law obeyed and ordered the bearers to return.

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou thought a lot at this moment, and she couldn't ask Concubine Nan'an to withdraw the marriage, at least not at this time.

Just getting one piece of news is not enough, Princess Nan'an wholeheartedly protects Shi Xiangyun, she is afraid that she will deny it flatly, she can't compare the bag with the needle and thread made by Xiangyun, revealing the traces of her family's private investigation, and implicating it in revealing the matter The head of Jingxiao County.Madam Hou of Jinxiang doesn't think it has anything to do with County Lord Jingxiao, but the little girls don't think so.

It's better to wait and see what Shi Xiangyun can do after getting married. Anyway, the date of name inquiry is set in June.

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou had no choice but to allow Concubine Nan'an to observe Shi Xiangyun for a few months. She did not speculate Shi Xiangyun maliciously, thinking that she would definitely do something out of line again.In fact, she felt that Mrs. Baolinghou restrained Shi Xiangyun from going to the Rongguo Mansion. Without Jia Baoyu's recklessness, and her family officially came to propose marriage, Shi Xiangyun herself should avoid it. Madam Jinxiang felt aggrieved by any reason for retiring, and hated Concubine Nan'an for being too embarrassing.

Therefore, with the consent of husband and son, Mrs. Jinxianghou has been planning to withdraw the marriage in the name of incompatibility. Regardless of whether bad things happen or not, they have decided to withdraw, even if they offend Nan'an Palace and the historians at the same time. The government does not hesitate.

It's just that Shi Xiangyun still made needlework for Baoyu after getting engaged, which was completely beyond Madam Jinxianghou's expectation.

The previous incident can be said to be Baoyu's fault, and Xiangyun is innocent, so now he can't blame Baoyu?

Before getting married, it would be okay for sisters to embroider flowers for brothers, but Xiangyun and Baoyu are not direct brothers and sisters, and it was very reluctant to do needlework for Baoyu before, but after getting married, they still do the same thing and embroider backwards. Pick up the fan bag.I don't know if with Xiangyun's temper, she will be annoyed if she is treated as a working girl?

It should be noted that when the two families are engaged, the man will give gifts such as jewelry, fruit and clothes during Najib, and the woman must prepare needlework and other gifts in return.

In fact, Madam Hou of Jinxiang didn't like Xiangyun very much when she heard that Sister Feng Xiangyun compared Lin Daiyu to an actress.Fortunately, they can tell that this is not something that can be prevaricated by being straightforward, not to mention that Xiangyun robbed Baoyu afterwards and pointed his sword at Daiyu.Fortunately, County Lord Jingxiao never argued with them, otherwise it would be a matter of course to hold grudges for the rest of their lives. No one said County Lord Jingxiao was petty.

Back at the residence of the Marquis of Jinxiang, it happened that the Marquis of Jinxiang was not at home, only Han Qi was there, Mrs. Jinxiang Hou explained to him how powerful he was, and Han Qi blushed with anger, jumped up and said, "Retreat! You must retreat! There is also Baoyu , thanks to me being as good as him, he doesn't know how to shy!"

Mrs. Hou of Jinxiang said calmly: "I can't blame Baoyu for this matter. According to the inquiring news, Baoyu didn't know that it was made by Miss Shi, and she was holding a fan pouch to show off to others, and it was better than others. It was Baoyu's first-class maid named Xirenzhe who secretly asked Miss Shi to make needles and thread, not only fan bags, but also knots and other things."

Han Qi sneered and said, "Grand Concubine Nan'an has been talking to his wife before, saying that Mrs. Baolinghou is now in charge of Miss Shi and told her to do needlework at home, but it turns out that she is doing needlework for others!"

Mrs. Jinxiang Hou sighed softly, and said comfortingly: "Anyway, we plan to retire, so there is no need to be upset."

After Han Qi heard this, his anger subsided.

After going through all these things, Han Qi couldn't help thinking of Wei Ruolan's reminder. Wei Ruolan has always been mysterious. I don't know where he learned that this marriage was wrong. son.After counting the days, Wei Ruolan sent a post to invite him to drink immediately after leaving the palace.

Today, on the first day of the new year, Wei Ruolan remembered that Jia's family went to Yuxu Temple to hold a funeral ceremony, and Daiyu would definitely accompany her, so he replied to the post, changing the day of drinking to the next day, and went to the Taoist temple where Miaozhen was.

Miaozhen smiled and said, "You have been working in the palace for seven consecutive days. If you are not at home, relax and relax. What are you doing here?"

Wei Ruolan pointed at the ice that was sent, and said with a smile: "It's hot, send some ice to mom to cool off."

Seeing so much ice, Miaozhen hurriedly said: "How can I use so much by myself? It's hot this year, and His Majesty didn't go with the Supreme Emperor to escape the heat, and the price of ice is rising day by day. Besides, I have more flowers and trees here, and it's cooler than other places. You Take it back and give it to the old lady."

"Mother accepts it. I have sent a lot of ice to the old lady." Wei Ruolan smiled, winked at her, and said: "In winter, I ordered people to dig an ice cellar in the house outside the mansion. There are a lot of ice bricks, enough for us to use for several summers. What's more, I often work in the palace now, and there are plenty of ice basins at your Majesty's place. I'm not at home, so I don't need them."

Besides, even if there is a lack of ice, some can be made with saltpeter.

There is a method of making ice with saltpeter in the memory. It seems that the owner of the memory still wants to make money with this recipe. ?

When Miaozhen heard this, she asked people to put it away and put it in the room. After asking that it was clean ice, she ordered someone to make ice cream dotted with fresh fruits and melons.

Just like that, Wei Ruolan sat on the rattan chair under the grape arbor, holding a large bowl of ice cream, eating while enjoying the cool, and talking to Miaozhen about recent experiences, it was very pleasant.

Suddenly hearing the sound of Yuxu watching an opera next door, it was very lively, Miaozhen shook her head and said: "Rongguo Mansion is too ostentatious, early in the morning, the little nuns go to buy fresh melons, fruits and vegetables, and almost can't get in when they come back. The entrance of Yuxu Temple was full of cars and sedan chairs from the Rongguo Mansion blocking the street, and I don’t know how many people followed them and sang operas there, how could it be as clean as Fang Wai.”

Wei Ruolan smiled, thinking that the so-called prosperity and decline were referring to the Ningrong State Mansion.

Miaozhen said again: "It's all about his men. The girls are really nice. Although I have never met them, I often go to the homes of dignitaries and dignitaries as guests. I have often heard people say that they are really beautiful and beautiful in the world. It's all condensed on the girl of his family, even the worst one is several times stronger than other girls. Our family has some friends with their family, and we have contacts every year, so I will take a look tomorrow to see if As people say, she is a rare girl in the world."

Wei Ruolan heard the words and hurriedly said: "Mother often practices Taoism in the Taoist temple. After all, it's not interesting. It's good to go out for a walk often. I heard from Mrs. Jinghui that one of her nephews who practiced with hair, the Dharma name is Miaoyu. Those who are now practicing in Quacui Nunnery in the Grand View Garden."

If I go to Rongguo Mansion, my mother will definitely meet Daiyu. It would be great if she likes Daiyu after seeing her, so that it will be convenient for her to propose marriage in the future.A dignified person like the Empress would like Daiyu when she saw her, and her own mother would also like it, after all, Daiyu was the most pitiful and lovely woman in the world, extraordinary and extraordinary.

After hearing this, Miaozhen said with a smile: "I've seen Miaoyu before, and she has the most aloof personality. She is willing to live in the Grand View Garden of Rongguo Mansion. I think there is something special about coming there, so I will post a post here. For Miaoyu, take a look."

After all, he immediately ordered someone to deliver the post.

Because of Jinghui, when she didn't know that Jinghui was saved by Wei Ruolan's mother, Miaozhen and Jinghui had a very good friendship and often went to Muni's courtyard as a guest, so she naturally recognized Miaoyu who came to Beijing with her master , also know her master's last words before his death.

Wei Ruolan took a big mouthful of ice cream contentedly, looked at the tall building next door, and wondered what Daiyu was doing at this time, so she wouldn't quarrel with Baoyu again and suffer from heatstroke?

Hearing Daoist Zhang tell Baoyu about his marriage, Daiyu was never angry. Instead, she noticed that when Mother Jia said that Baoyu should not marry early, although the expressions of Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue's mother and daughter did not change, they were not as good as they came. When I was happy, I didn't know who the young lady Zhang Daoshi told Baoyu to kiss was basically the same age and appearance as Baochai.

Daiyu followed Jiamu to watch the play upstairs, and when she turned her head to drink tea, she saw Baoyu rummaging through the gifts from Taoist Zhang in front of Jiamu. There was one, and Baochai replied that it was Xiangyun.

Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled, but she was not Xiangyun, and everyone knew her golden unicorn.

Hearing that Baoyu said she hadn't seen it, Tanchun praised Baochai for her intentions. Daiyu thought that the golden and jade marriage was just something she brought, and Baochai had intentions on these things. Thinking that this matter had nothing to do with her, she just smiled. language.Unexpectedly, Baoyu heard that Shi Xiangyun had a unicorn, so he put the unicorn in his arms and looked around, fearing that people would find it.

Others didn't care, Daiyu also turned her head to watch the play, pretending not to see, but a sense of worry arose in her heart.

After Baoyu knew that the fan pouch was made by Xiangyun, he cherished it even more. Everyone in the house knew about it, and they didn't think much about it. The news, Xiangyun's husband's family knows, what should I do?

The pouch is just like a purse and sachet. It is a gift for men and women.

It's good that the Jinxiang Hou Mansion doesn't know. If they know, can they not be annoyed by this matter?After all, Xiangyun is a sister with a foreign surname.

Looking up, I saw Baoyu smiling and telling Jia Mu this and that, her heart was clear, her brows and eyes were not stained with worldliness, and she didn't know how powerful she was at all.Daiyu was worried, and she only hoped that the people in the mansion would be stricter and not spread it out. She also thought that some time ago, Baoyu pestered Jiamu to pick up Xiangyun, but Xiangyun didn't come. on things?

After finishing the Ping An Jiao in two days, Daiyu felt exhausted and was resting in the room when she suddenly saw Miaoyu sending the little Taoist nun a post asking her to have a gathering with Baochai, Sanchun and the others.

I also heard that a post was also posted for Baoyu, and it was Xue Pan's birthday, so Baoyu went out.

Daiyu replied to the post, she always likes Miaoyu, probably because she is also a daughter of Gusu, and also because Miaoyu became a monk, the reason is very similar to what the scarlet monk said to her that day, the difference is that Miaoyu recovered from illness after becoming a monk, and she I didn't become a monk, and went to a relative's house again. After years of conditioning, although I got better, I was not as strong as ordinary people.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at Changcui Temple, I saw a Taoist nun who was dressed similarly to Miaoyu and Miaoyu, sitting in a small game.

Miaoyu stood up and smiled, "You are the farthest away, and you don't want to be the first to come."

Without saying a word, Xichun said bluntly outside the door: "Sister Lin loves to be stubborn with you, it's not like you don't know it, but you think we came late, the second sister went to the east courtyard, and she's not here, the third sister is at Sister Bao's place, Sister Bao’s Hengwu Court is the farthest from you, in the northwest corner, and you are in the southeast corner, which is closer to Yihong Court. I’ve already finished copying the Buddhist scriptures I borrowed from you, so I’ll just send them to you.” As Xichun said, she walked in and blinked in surprise when she saw a Taoist nun whom she had never seen before.

Miaoyu said with a smile: "This is Master Miaozhen. She is practicing in the Taoist temple next door to Yuxu Temple. She heard that you were having a funeral ceremony at Yuxu Temple. When she came to see me, she thought of you and wanted to meet."

The two sisters hurriedly greeted Miaozhen before they sat down.

Seeing Daiyu and Xichun's appearance like this, especially Daiyu, I don't know what words to use to describe it, Miaozhen is full of praise, it's strange that everyone who has seen them say they are rare people in the world, as expected True to its name.

Miaozhen was also the daughter of the boudoir, and she knew her love, and after a few conversations, she felt like old friends at first sight.

Just as they were talking, Baochai and Tanchun came hand in hand, and they met again in a hurry.

Daiyu is romantic and graceful, Baochai is charming and glamorous, Tanchun is in high spirits, Xichun is smart and elegant, together with Miaoyu, who is less than 20 years old, the five daughters in front of me are all exquisite and crystal clear, no matter which one goes out, there is something Second, I don't know what kind of person Yingchun is.The more Miaozhen watches, the more she loves, and the more she loves, the more she watches, but after talking about it, she feels that Daiyu and Xichun are better.She is an outsider, and she prefers those who are free from vulgarity. Although Baochai's stability and Tanchun's sensitivity are also excellent, they are more secular after all.

Baochai and Tanchun didn't sit for a long time. After a while, they said something happened to Mrs. Wang and left early. Daiyu and Xichun were left to make tea with Miaoyu's good water, feeling clean and at ease.

Because Xichun and Miaoyu talked about scriptures and Taoism, Miaozhen and Daiyu were left alone to talk on the futon. Miaozhen remembered that her son had been taught by Lin Ruhai, so she inevitably became a little more kind to Daiyu. He asked her how old she was and what she was doing at home, and explained that when she was free, he asked her to play in his Taoist temple, where he had tea that was not inferior to Miaoyu's.

Daiyu smiled, some refused, some agreed, she was very generous, without any twitching.

When Miaozhen left, she still felt reluctant to part with her. When she saw Wei Ruolan who came to eat at night, she couldn't forget it.

Wei Ruolan was secretly complacent, and thought to herself, just because of Daiyu's personality, how many people who have met her would not like her?Thinking in his heart, he said: "Since mother likes her, it's okay to pick her up tomorrow."

Miaozhen sighed: "I think, but she is in the filial piety period, but my place is a Taoist temple, similar to a temple, so she can come too."

Wei Ruolan smiled.

After getting the result she wanted, Wei Ruolan went home contentedly, and when she couldn't sleep, she re-read the Dream of Red Mansions, especially about these things in May, when she suddenly caught a glimpse of Shi Xiangyun coming to Rongguo Mansion at noon on the sixth day of May, and Mrs. Wang said One sentence made him dumbfounded, but the other words were: "I'm afraid it's better now. Someone came to visit the day before yesterday, and saw that there was a mother-in-law's house, so it's still the same."

Someone saw him the day before yesterday. So, I read these books like I swallowed them, but I misunderstood Shi Xiangyun?

The Dream of Red Mansions is really broad and profound. Although he wrote it down word by word, but because he was anxious to record it for Lin Ruhai to read, he didn't pay attention to some places. Now when he saw this sentence, his previous thoughts became a joke!

No, although the Dream of Red Mansions recorded it like this, but when he was sick, Mrs. Wei and Mrs. Shi Nai clearly intended to marry.

The marriage between the two families failed, and the Shi family soon married the Han family, neither of which was compatible with May.

Wei Ruolan was a little confused.

Knowing that he made a mistake, he naturally regretted it. He secretly said that Xiangyun was not like what he said before. She did needlework and other things for Baoyu not after the engagement, but before, and it was not her fault.However, his reluctance to marry Shi Xiangyun is not the only reason for his previous speculation. Among them, he also dislikes Shi Xiangyun's behavior, especially his completely different attitude towards Daichai. He is by no means a naive, open-minded person. , and she complained to Baochai in private while being taken care of by the historian.

On the sixth day of May, before Wei Ruolan entered the palace to work, he inquired quietly, but he did not expect that Mrs. Shi Nai would let Shi Xiangyun go to Rongguo Mansion when she was restrained by Mrs. Shi Nai to do needlework at home for fear of being resigned by the Han family.Wei Ruolan was deeply surprised, if it was said that in Dream of Red Mansions, she only wanted to see unengaged relatives, but now it is like this, why the development of the matter is still the same as the plot of Dream of Red Mansions?

On that side, Daiyu saw Xiangyun approaching surrounded by maidservants, but she didn't pay much attention to it.

At this moment, Mrs. Wang was accompanied by Caiyun and Caixia. Daiyu was thinking about Jin Chuan's former son being kicked out by Mrs. Wang. She didn't know why. Could it be that Jin Chuan should be here?It's just that she was not the only girl who was expelled, so how did she end up looking for life and death?She was so dazed that she never cared about Xiangyun chatting and laughing with everyone. Baochai mentioned that she was wearing Baoyu clothes. The gift of others is the crimson stone ring that was given to me and others a few days ago. It is pink and crystal clear, very cute.

Hearing Xiangyun say: "One sister Xiren, one sister Yuanyang, one sister Jin Chuaner, and one Xiaohong."

Ping'er has been married for a long time, and Sister Feng's capable confidant is Lin Xiaohong, a maid who is leaving Baoyu's room.

Daiyu didn't care, and went back to her room to order someone to find out why Jin Chuan'er was evicted. She joked with Baoyu and instigated Baoyu to take Jia Huan and Caiyun. When Madam Wang heard it, she couldn't help being stunned.After hearing that Mrs. Wang was furious at that time, she slapped Jin Chuan'er in the face and drove Jin Chuan'er out. Baoyu had already fled away, and Daiyu felt even more sad.

When Mammy Liu asked people to inquire, she really spent a lot of energy. When the incident happened, only Mrs. Wang, Jin Chuaner, and Baoyu were in the room, and no one else heard what they said. Only when Jin Chuan'er attacked at home did he learn the truth.

No, it didn't take long to hear that Jin Chuan'er jumped into a well and died.

Daiyu's tears rolled down immediately.
