Daiyu's wife in the Red Chamber

After confirming that the golden crown belonged to Wei Ruolan, and had already given it back to him, Daiyu was slightly surprised, and soon said she knew it, she didn't take it to heart, her eyes were only looking at the scenery outside the window, it happened that there was a scene in the mountains yesterday Light rain, with the biting chill remaining after the rain, the fallen leaves of various colors float into the courtyard and are blown around by the autumn wind, dancing like yellow butterflies, just like the unity of poetry and painting.

Before I knew it, my father had been gone for two years.

360 days a year, more than [-] days passed like running water.

She still remembered the details of her father before he died, and seeing the cold wind blowing in the courtyard, leaving behind a trace of bleakness, Daiyu's heart was filled with countless sentiments and nostalgia, she put her hand on the desk, and shed tears in a daze .

Not waiting for Xueyan and others to come forward to persuade her, she suddenly ordered someone to set up the easel, take out the brushes and paints, color the paint herself, and start to move.

I don't know how long it took, the sky was dark, and the lamp was lit in the room, and Daiyu stopped writing.

This painting is very exquisite, although the technique is a bit sluggish, but it is the essence of Western oil painting. It seems that the figures are displayed under the light, and they appear to have both light and dark, concave and convex, almost breaking out of the picture.

Xueyan and the others looked at the light, and suddenly felt bitter and sad. On the canvas was the scene of Lin Ruhai holding up his sick body to teach Daiyu, half sitting on the couch, wearing a thick cloak, his temples were as white as frost, his hands The powerlessness caused the book to fall on the quilt, but the very old and thin face was full of kindness, staring at the girl in front of the bed.

The girl did not show her face, and everyone saw her unusually thin back, and the sadness and desolation she was holding back.

When she looked back at Daiyu, her face was also stained with tears.

Daiyu washed her hands and face, and used water to cover up the tears she just shed, and said in a low voice: "This painting should be called Yifu. Take it back tomorrow and ask a skilled craftsman to frame it carefully and store it carefully. When I want to Father, when will you please come out and have a look, lest as the years go by day after day, you will gradually forget your father's appearance, words and deeds."

Hearing this sentence, everyone who had tidied up Daiyu's life would cry tears of confusion.

The little monk Xingxu came in suddenly and broke the scene, Xu Shi ran a little hastily, his face was blushing, and he said crisply: "Tan Yue, that male Tan Yue asked the little monk to come over with a thank you gift."

Male Tanyue?Isn't it Wei Ruolan?

Daiyu turned her head in doubt, looked at Xingxu with empty hands and said: "Please trouble little master to bring something? Little master went back and told the young master that it was the parrot in the temple who was mischievous, and it has nothing to do with other things, so there is no need to do that."

Xingxu stared at his hand for a long time, and said with a mournful face: "The little monk was only focused on eating the fruit that Tanyue gave, and forgot to take something."

After hearing this, Daiyu hurriedly comforted her softly.

After a long time, Xingxu stopped his tears and said, "Young monk, go get it now." Before Daiyu could speak, he turned and ran out.

Liu Nanny shook her head and said: "This little monk is so cute, after all, he is young. The girl is only busy painting at night, and she doesn't have any food during the day and night. She eats some soup that can be easily digested, so that people will be warm." on the stove." No matter what, they would never forget Daiyu's body, but Daiyu was immersed in the painting and turned a deaf ear to it. They also knew the painter's hobby, so they didn't wake her up.

Daiyu also felt hungry, so she nodded and smiled. Xueyan put a handkerchief on it and presented it up quickly. The little monk Xu walked in with a pot of orchid grass swinging in his hands. Following his movements, the wind blew past, filling the meditation room with a touch of tranquility.

It turned out to be a bluegrass!

Daiyu hurriedly ordered Xueyan to take it over. She didn't want to eat any more, put down her rice bowl, and went to the orchid grass in person to look at it carefully.

This is a top-grade orchid, Daiyu recognized it at a glance. It has no flowers and is secluded. The fireworks in the world are tacky.

Plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum are the four gentlemen, and orchid fragrance is the first.

After reading it, Daiyu praised her very much, and said overjoyedly: "It's so elegant! This flower is so good, it's really very good. I haven't seen such an elegant orchid grass in the mansion all these years, heng There are a lot of vanilla in Wuyuan, but it’s a pity that it has lost its naturalness and cleanliness after passing through the hands and smell of so many smelly men. Although the plant in front of me is naturally long, the best place for it is in the mountains , I am a vulgar and vulgar layman, and I am delighted to see it being moved to a flowerpot in the world."

Nanny Liu smiled and said, "I knew that no matter what, the girl has a walnut cart."

Daiyu gave her a sideways glance, staring at Lancao unwilling to look away.

The little monk Xingxu was confused, but it didn't prevent him from saying what he had to say: "Tanyue, that male Tanyue said that he went to the mountain today to check if there are any big insects, and he planned to call him to pay respects to the Buddha. In order not to spoil the crops and disturb the people, I happened to see this cluster of orchid grass on the cliff, which is very elegant and unusual, and it can match Tanyue one or two, and I moved it to a pot as a thank you gift."

After hearing these words, Daiyu's face became hot, and a blush gradually appeared under the light.

For a while I didn't know what to say to answer Xingxu, Daiyu stretched out her hand and patted her cheeks, making her blood fade, Fang said: "Where is it worth doing this?" Originally, she wanted to say that Wei Ruolan was too hardworking, but suddenly she couldn't feel it. Sure, I swallowed it again.

The little monk Xingxu didn't know what was going on in her heart. He walked around the orchid grass and wondered: "The mountains are full of grass, isn't the orchid grass also a grass? What is the male Tanyue sending a pot of grass to the female Tanyue for? You can't eat it, and you can't eat it. You can’t be stubborn, it’s not interesting to look at, it’s not as good as the chrysanthemums in and out of our temple. Ah, I see, I can feed rabbits!”

Everyone smiled in unison, and Daiyu was also amused by him, and carefully explained the difference between grass and bluegrass.

If it was something else, she would have declined on the spot. After all, the golden crown belonged to Wei Ruolan, and she was ashamed to receive the gift, but his gift was such a pot of orchid grass.It's rude and unreasonable to keep it, but I really don't want to go back. I was hesitating when I heard Madam Liu say: "Miss, just stay, otherwise people will think that our family is dissatisfied with the gift."

Before Daiyu could say anything, she saw the little monk Xingxu running away.

Wei Ruolan heard that Daiyu loved her so much, she clenched her fist and felt satisfied, it was worthwhile for him to travel all over Iron Net Mountain in the past two days to find this Qilan.Iron Net Mountain is so big and densely covered with dense forests, you will encounter it wherever you say you encounter it.

In the deep mountains and wild forests, on the cliffs, there are many orchid grasses, but they are all ordinary, only this one can be called top grade, with a graceful and unique posture.Wei Ruolan was also born in a noble family, so she recognized it at a glance, and carefully transplanted it into the pot, not even daring to take a breath, for fear that the orchid grass would wither and lose its elegance if blown out.

Suddenly seeing the golden crown on the case, Wei Ruolan picked it up, looked at it again and again, and decided to use this crown to tie her hair frequently in the future.

But Daiyu, who got Qilan because of the golden crown, still couldn't bear to fall asleep at night, sitting quietly on the bed, admiring the orchid grass under the lamp, the more she looked at it, the more she loved it, the more she loved it, the more she loved it, she almost remembered to splash ink and put it into a painting.

Thinking that the person who gave the bluegrass was Wei Ruolan, and Wei Ruolan was also called Lan, Daiyu's heart was fluctuating, and thoughts such as "find the orchid to repay your confidant, give a branch to Meng Xiaoxiang" and "don't give it to Meng Xiaoxiang" There are no people who are not fragrant, and do not wither because of the cold; if the spirit is blue, it will not change when it grows, and if the heart is blue, it will never change” and other words.

Thinking of this, Daiyu felt that her face was hot and her heart was beating, and she didn't dare to think deeply, so she hurriedly covered her head and fell asleep.

Xueyan and the servant girls who accompanied her in the bedroom turned off the lights and went to sleep peacefully, without saying a word all night.

The next day was Lin Ruhai's second year's memorial day, Daiyu had exhausted all her flair from the previous night early, she worshiped devoutly without makeup and attire, while Wei Ruolan, just like in old years, sacrificed at a distance in the courtyard, unknown to outsiders.

Master Baiku sighed softly in his heart: "The little children in the world of mortals don't know whether it is fate or evil, but I only hope that fate is not evil."

Neither Daiyu nor Wei Ruolan knew about his sigh.

Because Wei Ruolan had to go to the palace to work, he specially asked for leave these two days, and after the sacrifice, he hurried down the mountain, not daring to stay for long.

But Daiyu likes the cleanness of the mountains, and now she has vanilla as her companion, she intends to stay longer, and return to Beijing with the Queen after the autumn encirclement is over.No, Jia's mother thought that her holiday in the mountains would be too bleak, so she sent Jia Lian to pick up Daiyu at the end of August, saying that the second day of junior high school was Sister Feng's birthday, and she was planning to celebrate Sister Feng's birthday.

Jia Lian explained the reason for her visit, and Mother Liu apologized: "Unfortunately, the girl couldn't sleep last night. She got up to enjoy the flowers in her clothes, but she caught a cold and got up early in the morning with a stuffy nose. No matter what, she couldn't go back on the second day of the junior high school." .”

Jia Lian was startled, and hurriedly said, "Have you invited the doctor yet?"

Nanny Liu replied: "I have already sent people to the capital to invite the imperial physician, but it has not arrived yet."

Jia Lian didn't care about the purpose of coming here, and when the imperial doctor Wang came, he greeted Daiyu personally, diagnosed Daiyu's pulse and prescribed medicine, and after the servant girl took the decoction, he comforted Daiyu outside the door and said: "Sister Not good, let's rest on the mountain, anyway, your sister-in-law's birthday is the same, there will be another year next year."

Daiyu was afraid that Jia Lian would not be able to hear what she said, so she ordered Zijuan to come out and say, "Young lady said: Thank you for your kindness, and please ask your second brother to go back and apologize to his grandmother and second sister-in-law. Tomorrow, I will go back and make amends myself."

Jia Lian waved his hands and said, "Sister's body is important, everything else is trivial."

After hearing this, Zijuan showed a smile on her face, and hurriedly presented Daiyu's birthday gift to Sister Feng. It is indescribably pleasing to the eye.He is already in his twenties now, and he only has one elder sister under his knees, so why doesn't he look forward to having a son to succeed his family?Except for the old father, none of these people in the mansion thought of this, I'm afraid they wished that they didn't have a son.

In the past two years, Jia Lian's hard-working nature has been hard to change, and he always wants to go fishing. Every time he thinks of Mr. Li's words, he can't help but stop his thoughts and go looking for Sister Feng.However, although there are many couples having intercourse, there is no news, which is really sad.

Daiyu didn't know this, but Jia Lian was very happy to see Avalokitesvara and left with a smile on his face.

She has been recuperating with care for the past two years. Even if the queen often bestows it, the supplements and medicinal materials used are not worth tens of thousands, but are worth thousands of taels of silver. Although she occasionally suffers from illness, she recovers within three or two days. Hei Hei, not only did not get better after taking the medicine, but it got worse. That night, he developed a fever again, with a bitter mouth and itchy throat, and a severe cough. He was so panicked that Nanny Liu and the others dared not sleep, so pay attention.

Fortunately, Doctor Wang had been ordered by the old doctor Wang to cure Daiyu before returning to Beijing. He was afraid that Daiyu would not be treated on the mountain, so he was staying in an outer hospital. When he heard the news, he came to visit overnight and prescribed other medicines. Fry it and send it over.

Daiyu drank bowl after bowl of bitter juice, and became sick again and again. She hated Mammy Liu and others to scold quack doctors.

It wasn't until after the Double Ninth Festival, when the autumn encirclement began on the twelfth day, that Daiyu's illness gradually improved. The empress sent people over several times, sending clothes and medicine, ordering her to recover from her illness, and calling old doctor Wang to personally treat her. Come here to check the pulse, if the result of the doctor Wang's pulse diagnosis is not the same as that of his old man, I am afraid that even the queen will call the doctor Wang a quack doctor.

After Wei Ruolan learned about it, she became very anxious and wished she could visit her immediately, but it was a pity that he couldn't ruin Daiyu's reputation.

Emperor Changtai still only shot a deer the same as last year. The difference is that he saw that Jiang Hua and the twelve teenagers are getting more and more skilled in martial arts. Out of curiosity, he learned some inner skills of meditation and Qi training from Wei Ruolan , the strength increased greatly, and three arrows shot the big deer to death.

Even so, Emperor Changtai had no intention of competing with the children of the aristocratic family in the paddock. He had nothing to do, and happened to see the worried look on Wei Ruolan's face, and couldn't help but tell the queen, saying: " That kid chose ferocious bears, tigers, wild boars as his targets, and he didn’t forget to shoot some firefoxes, snow rabbits, etc. He was in the limelight for a while, so what are you worrying about?”

The queen had some eyebrows vaguely in her heart, and said after hearing the voice: "Your Majesty asked me? How do I know? Why don't you ask that child."

Emperor Changtai looked at his wife and said with a smile: "Don't coax me, if you don't know, why did you ask Wei Ruolan?"

The queen said: "Wei Ruolan is good at kung fu. I used the tiger skin and bear skin he hunted last year very well. I asked him what kind of good prey he hunted this year. After three or two months, Lin girl will be a filial piety. Such a It looks neat, but it needs to be dressed brightly to look good."

Emperor Changtai was stunned, and sighed: "Unknowingly, Lin Ruhai has been gone for two years. In the past two years, thanks to his money, the two places in Beijiang and Yuehai have enough money, and those who are full of self-pocketing money are all taken by us. Beheaded, the morale of the generals of the two places was greatly boosted, and eight out of ten battles were won, and foreign enemies did not dare to invade for a while, and the people were at peace."

The Queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you should remember it. Loyal ministers and good generals should remember it."

Emperor Changtai smiled, nodded and said: "That's the reason. Not only do I remember loyal ministers and good generals, but I also remember their descendants. As long as they don't do things that hurt nature and reason, I will give them some grace."

The queen said: "In that case, what kind of grace do you give Lin girl?"

Emperor Changtai thought for a while, and said: "Is it a grace to tell her an excellent marriage? She has no father or mother, lives under the fence, and has no home of her own. Only when she is officially married can she be considered settled. Wait for Jing Xiao When the girl becomes filial piety, you can invite her to come to the palace banquet next year, and see more orders from the madam, which will be good for her in the future, and let those people know that Jingxiao is waiting in her boudoir."

The Queen smiled and said, "Your Majesty should remind me? I've thought about it a long time ago. Not only that, but I also picked out the bright red feather satin and feather yarn from the tribute, and used the good leather that I made this time to make a cloak to keep her out of the cold."

Xu knew what the queen meant, and within two days he heard that Daiyu was on the mend, Wei Ruolan was very attentive while hunting, and killed a lot of prey that could be made into woolen clothes.In fact, there are no sables, snow rabbits, black foxes and other beasts in Iron Net Mountain. The mountains and forests are not suitable for them, so the Imperial Forest Army sent many of them into the mountains, and they became prey.Otherwise, Wei Ruolan would not be able to fight the innumerable sables, red foxes, etc. at all.

When Daiyu recovers from illness, the autumn encirclement is over, so there is no need to remember.

When Shengjia returned to Beijing, Daiyu followed through on her previous plan to return to Beijing with the empress, and spent a few more days in Shangshang before returning to Rongguo Mansion. Just take good care of this pot of orchid grass, don't break its leaves, and don't let those eunuchs touch it on the way, but don't let it smell manly."

Xueyan agreed with a smile, and sure enough, she escorted Daiyu to Daiyu's bedroom like a baby, without even seeing Baoyu.

When Daiyu went to the room to pay her respects, Mother Jia saw that the complexion she had managed to recover had turned pale after the illness, and her heart ached so much that she hugged her into her arms and asked Li Wan to order the big kitchen to stew Supplement for Daiyu.

Seeing that Mother Jia was crying in distress, it was hard for everyone to persuade her.

When Daiyu was not in the Rongguo mansion, many things happened in the mansion, each of which was a story.Xiangyun is a talkative and laughing person. He rushed to Baoyu and told Daiyu everything. The village of Grandma Liu, the tea of ​​Miaoyu, the longevity of Sister Feng, the love of mandarin ducks, etc. are even better than those sung in operas. .Of course, everyone does not know that only Sister Feng's longevity has changed greatly. At this time, Jia Lian has never hooked up with Bao Er's wife, and Sister Feng has not fought with each other because of jealousy, causing a rift between the husband and wife.

Wei Ruolan has always been paying attention, and when she learned about these things that have changed, she smiled lightly and stopped thinking about it.

He remembered that it was said in the book that on September [-]th, Lai's family had a treat, and Liu Xianglian was there. Xue Pan regarded him as an actor and wanted to molested him, but in the end he was beaten hard.At that time, he was hunting in Iron Net Mountain, and when he came back, he hurriedly asked the person who arranged it, and learned that Liu Xianglian had gone to Lai's house for a banquet, and also beat Xue Pan, but because of the protection of the Chen family, he did not escape the misfortune and went away.

Now that Liu Xianglian had money and got married, she no longer appeared on stage at will, and only occasionally sang a song or two to relieve boredom when the brothers were drinking.He used to collude in dramas, mostly because he was short of money, and he got a lot of rewards for coquettish dramas.

The friend is safe and sound, Wei Ruolan left alone, only thinking about how to express her feelings to her mother.Although Daiyu's health is not as good as ordinary people's, but that kind of favor has made many people jealous, and some snobbish people have made up their minds early on, trying to use Daiyu to make friends with the generals' family, and also want to use her to win the Queen's favor.

Wei Ruolan has admired Daiyu for a long time, how can she let these people trample on Daiyu?Self-planning.

At this moment, Wei's mother called him over, and said with tears in her eyes that Cheng Wanzhi couldn't bear the gossip and gossip of the world, and tried to hang herself. Fortunately, the nanny and maids found out early, so they didn't die.
