Rebirth of the Legend of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

"Sister Hongling, your family is the wife's companion, did you also work in the Rongguo Mansion before?"

This time when I went to Rongguo Mansion, Daiyu was followed by Hongling and Moyun. After she came back, Daiyu didn't show anything on her face, she just said that she would be tired for a while, and don't leave anyone to wait on her, and drive all the girls away. out.

There was Wang Momo guarding the room outside, and all the maids went back to the room. For a while, the little girl was curious, so she came over and asked Hong Ling.

"You girl are not stupid. If Hongling and his family hadn't worked in that mansion, how could they have become his wife's companion and followed us to our house." Wen Yu poked the little girl and poured a glass. Shui An sat down quietly, like everyone else, he was quite curious about the Rongguo Mansion.

That little girl is just a third-class sweeper in Daiyu's room. In the past, the masters of the mansion were all in the south of the Yangtze River, and there were not many people serving in the mansion in Beijing. This time when Jia Min's mother and son went to Beijing, the housekeeper promoted some little girls. Well, the master can't get close, it's mostly scrubbing and scrubbing.

This little girl Fuxiang is one of them, but she can speak better than the rest, and the older ones also like her.

"That's all. I see that there are too many people in the house. Today, the wife and the girl are talking to the old lady in the house, and there are a bunch of Yingying and Yanyan by the side, and the three Miss, but most of them don’t make a sound, I’m already getting impatient looking at our girl.”

After Mo Yun finished speaking, he gave Hong Ling a push. Seeing that she stayed silent for a long time, he smiled and said, "What's wrong with you."

Hong Ling came back to her senses and smiled slightly, but sighed: "You all see that there are many people in that room, but you don't know that it is not easy to get into that room, just for the mandarin duck next to the old lady. When I was still young and hadn’t chosen to enter the mansion, the sister Yuanyang became a popular person around the old lady. At that time, the old lady had twenty or thirty little girls in front of her. Two, if you don't have the ability, how can you get to this step by step."

Everyone clicked their tongues when they heard this, and Fuxiang thought to himself, there are about a dozen first- and second-class girls in the girl's room, not counting those third-class and unsightly ones. If he wants to stand out, he doesn't know What year and month is it, I can't help but admire this mandarin duck who has never met before, just thinking about it makes me feel very powerful.

"It's just a face, so what? I'm looking at them now. Some of them are happy and some are not. I saw me today, and I saw that I was by the girl's side. They all pulled me a lot and talked about it. I don’t understand what it means.”

As Hong Ling spoke, she became more and more angry, raised her eyes and saw everyone looking at her, secretly annoyed why she was so quick-spoken, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Oh, look at what I said, it's just that there is no such thing as us in that mansion." It's as clean as it looks, and I think our wife has always been lenient to the servants, and the girl is also good, she never gives us the master's money, and doesn't show favoritism to anyone, let me tell you, that's good."

Everyone nodded in agreement, and Fu Rui asked: "Sister Hongling, I heard that the girl's grandparents' family is very rich, is it true? Is it richer than ours?"

Everyone who said a word laughed, but they couldn't help being curious, but the older ones were more or less knowledgeable. Before Hong Ling could speak, Yan Rui, who was finally selected, laughed and said, "Is it because I am young? I didn't go to the Rongguo Mansion today, and I know that our family is different from theirs after thinking about it. I once heard my father say that the ancestors of the Rongguo Mansion were from military backgrounds, but our family is a close minister of the emperor. What kind of scholarly family? Even though I don’t understand the nobles, I also know that civil servants and generals are not the same kind of people.”

Everyone thought it was reasonable after hearing this, and Wen Yu said: "Yanrui's words are very true, Fuxiang and you don't come from the south. I don't know, our Lin family has one of the best reputations in the south of the Yangtze River. I listened to those in the kitchen. One said, when they went out to the comprador, they mentioned that the back of the Lin family was not straight."

The girls chattered for a while, but they didn't say that Daiyu was lying on the couch alone, and she didn't know what she was thinking, she just stared blankly at the handkerchief in her hand, and it took a long time before she let out a sigh .

She was wobbly and didn't know what she meant, Daiyu just felt very bored in her heart, whether she was sitting or standing, she couldn't tell what was going on, so she kicked everyone out, if she called the girl Seeing her like this, I'm afraid I think my girl is "bewildered".

What's more, she herself can't say why it happened like this, maybe she should tell them that in her previous life, she lived with those people I just saw today for many years, and finally died in the garden that is still not built in the mansion. inside?

Daiyu felt that her heart was in turmoil, if she didn't come to the capital, it would be fine, out of sight and out of mind, but now she came to the capital again, although it is different from her previous life, why is she so uncomfortable in her heart.

When the curtain slammed, Daiyu looked up and saw Nanny Zhang walking in with a smile. She couldn't explain why her heart felt warm. She was a person who had never enjoyed the warmth of her grandmother. I don't know how many other things are mixed in the grandparent-grandson friendship between the two of them.Therefore, for such a rare and loyal servant as Zhang Nanny, Daiyu felt that this wholehearted kindness to her was even more precious.

"What's the girl doing? But tired?"

Daiyu nodded, and seeing Zhang Nanny coming in with a bowl of bird's nest, she hurriedly said, "Why does Nanny do these things again, just leave it to Hong Ling and the others."

"What's the matter? The old lady left me to the girl because she wanted me to serve the girl. If I ask for more, I will let the old lady down. How can I still have the face to see the old lady in the future?"

Mammy Zhang took Daiyu's hand and rubbed it carefully, and told Daiyu to drink all the bird's nest before going to bed, but she didn't want Daiyu to say suddenly: "Mammy, I know your old man can see it." The more you know, the more you say, how good is my grandparent's house?"

Hearing Daiyu's question, Mammy Zhang was startled at first, and then thinking of Daiyu's performance, she wondered if something happened in Jia's mansion today to provoke her daughter to be like this?Nanny Zhang, who I watched and grew up with, is very clear in her heart, and Daiyu can see everything clearly, but because of this, she is too thoughtful at a young age, and sometimes she can't help thinking left .

"Miss, you've upset me again. Although I'm older, I can't read or understand the truth. I only know that the girl's grandparent's house is the girl's grandparent's house, and it belongs to our wife. My mother's family, the family I have to deal with all my life."

People who have to deal with in this life!

After silently reading Zhang Nanny's words several times, Daiyu suddenly smiled and felt a lot more refreshed. Because she was afraid that Zhang Nanny might misunderstand her, and also to comfort herself, she smiled again: "Today, I only feel that grandma There are so many rules and ostentation in the family that I feel tired even having a meal. Everyone has their own thoughts when speaking in front of my grandmother. In a word, there are many meanings in the words. Maybe it is me I have never seen the world of this big family, I just feel that it is really different from our family and our place in Jiangnan. After all, I am young and frivolous, so don't laugh at me, mammy."

Not to mention how Nanny Zhang talked with Daiyu's master and servant, even Jia Min was in the room at the moment, concentrating on something, not knowing what to do, and after a while, he called the most proud person around after Nanny Yang left. House's.

This family just now is Hongling's mother, and perhaps they have learned from Mammy Yang's mistakes. The Fang family are now careful in everything and focus on their master. They are afraid that one day they will go the same way as Nanny Yang. It's not a matter of losing money or not, it's that the face earned in several lifetimes will be completely lost.

"The madam is going back today. She doesn't seem very happy. The madam and the old lady haven't seen each other for many years. Now they are together. It will be convenient for them to move around in the future."

Fangcai's family carefully laughed along with them. Others didn't know and said their wife was soft-faced and soft-hearted, but she had been with Jia Min since she was a child and knew the details. This master has been a girl since she was a girl She can't help but hate, now she can see that several of the master's aunts are held in the palm of her hand.

"This is also the truth, but I didn't know it before. Every time my mother wrote a letter, she always reported good news but not bad news. Who knows that I only found out when I went back today. This elder brother and sister-in-law are becoming more and more useless. The second brother is still the same. As in the past, I only know about reciting poems and painting non-common things, and what is even more powerful is my second sister-in-law..."

Thinking of Jia Wang's face, Jia Min felt hateful, and said again: "It's good for her to drive my nephew to the temple early when she knows I'm going to go today. Hmph, now she I dared to challenge my mother in the open, and I must have had a lot of tossing in the open and in the dark all these years. Besides, no matter how much my mother loves my second brother, it's fine to let them live in the Rongxi Hall together. I know, it's just why I drove my elder brother so far away... I don't want to think that I have been away from home for so many years, but the mansion has become like this."

Jia Min felt a little tired just now, so he said, "Go back and ask your Hong Ling to see if the girl has anything to say. I'm looking at the girls in the house today. It's useless, not even half of our Yu'er, but my mother still wants to keep these two little ones. Although I have been away from the mansion for many years, I know that the way things in the mansion are compared to before when I saw them today. It's becoming more and more extravagant. Everything else is fine. Our family has always had a light taste and pays attention to health preservation. Today, the two children didn't eat much, and all the snacks they just asked for were delivered? Sigh, if they are really asked to I stayed, speaking of it, I am a hundred worried, even though it was the place where I was born and raised, but now, it has changed."

Jia Min secretly sighed, there are so many on the surface, and I don't know how many are in the dark, after all, my mother is getting old.
