Chapter 20: Daiyu
Lin Daiyu lazily lay on the chaise longue, and Mother Jia was taking a nap next door. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zijuan took a pillow and put it under Lin Daiyu's back, "Girl, but you also squint for a while?"
Shaking her hand, Lin Daiyu said, "Sister Zijuan, I can't sleep, you can chat with me for a while!"
Zijuan sat down at Daiyu's head, and chatted with Daiyu while making a sewing kit, "Girl, what do you want to say?"
After thinking for a while, Lin Daiyu said, "Sister Zijuan, what do you think of Sister Bao and Sister Qing?
Zijuan paused slightly, and the work in his hand also stopped, "If you want me to say that Miss Bao, as one of the four major families, Miss Xue is dignified and virtuous, beautiful and generous! In terms of her appearance, only the girl in this mansion is comparable to her!"
Thinking about it, Zijuan said again, "As for the girl of the Zhou family, she said that she was the daughter of the uncle of Lian's biological mother, and she was also cute and cute. As for why they came to Rongguo Mansion, this is not very clear! Looking at the way they reward their subordinates, they don't look like they are a master who comes to fight the autumn wind. β
When I looked up at the door, I saw the snow geese guarding the door, boringly counting the leaves on the ground. Approaching Lin Daiyu's side, Zijuan lowered her voice and whispered:
"There is a news from the courtyard of the eldest master, saying that the sisters and brothers of the Zhou family are the offenders, and like the Xue family, they also committed an accident in their hometown and were sent to Rongguo Mansion for refuge!"
Lin Daiyu was also sad when she heard "the poor relatives who came to fight the autumn breeze," as if she was talking about herself! The people of the Rongguo Mansion were all broken-mouthed, and their father's dignified salt patrol and imperial history were about to become poor and sour scholars in their mouths! Jia Baoyu was even more "Lu stupid" on the left and "Lu stupid" on the right! At this time, after hearing that the Zhou family was a criminal official, he suddenly sat up from the chaise longue couch.
"After the Zhou family was a prisoner, when did it happen? Do you know what happened to the family?" Lin Daiyu also felt very good about the Zhou family's sisters and brothers. Even those things that I gave to myself can be seen to have been carefully chosen.
The head of the set of flowers and plants, as well as some gadgets in the Jiangnan area, made me feel very cordial. It was the painting that Zhou Muqing painted himself, and he also asked Mama Wang to send it outside to frame it, but he had never seen that kind of painting, and he also planned to treasure it!
Seeing Daiyu sit up, Zijuan hurriedly went to help her, and said with concern and reproach, "My girl, you should be careful, don't hurt yourself! That Zhou family sisters and brothers, the girl doesn't have to worry, I heard that it was 20 years ago, but the Zhou family never got up again! There is no official in the clan. Some people said that the Zhou family seemed to want to ask the house for help and get an errand, but they didn't know if it was true or not!"
When Lin Daiyu heard Zijuan say this, her heart relaxed. is about to lie on the chaise longue, "Sister Zijuan, today I said that we will go to Jasmine Courtyard together in the afternoon, and I will sleep for a while, you remember to wake me up later." β
Zijuan nodded in response, took a thin quilt for Daiyu and covered her body, tucked the corners of the quilt, and sat on the small pestle again, doing needlework.
Seeing that Lin Daiyu was asleep, Zijuan gently walked to the door and found the snow goose, and the two of them whispered!
"Snow goose, you look at the girl, I'll go out for a while. "Snow Goose is a little girl who is only ten years old, and she is also very convinced by Zijuan, who is three years older than herself. Since Zijuan said that she wanted to go out, Snow Goose agreed without asking much.
"Sister Zijuan, you go and do something. You can rest assured that I'm here to watch the girl. Mama Wang should come back in a while, you have to come back early, don't be told by herββββββ!"
Zijuan nodded in agreement, turned around and took a bag of things in the room and walked out the door. Along the way, I stopped and stopped, carefully looking around, and chose some places with few people on the trail.
After a while, Zijuan walked to the West Corner Gate. There was a mother-in-law looking around, and when she saw Zijuan coming, she hurried over.
"Oh, my Aunt Zijuan, why did you come so late today?" but keep me waiting!" complained the woman as soon as she spoke.
Zijuan frowned, and she was quite disdainful of her mother-in-law's style. But she is also very helpless, but this mother-in-law is the step-room of this father-in-law, his nominal mother. She gave birth to a younger brother to herself, and her father is also very spoiled.
handed over the package in his hand, "Mother, don't complain, the girl slept late today." These things, you take them home quickly, they are all some embroidery work that I do on weekdays. β
The mother-in-law opened the package for a while, and said with a little disgust, "How can this little thing be enough for a few dollars, your brother is now seven years old, and he has reached the age when he should go to school, and he plays crazy at home every day, and your father said that if he goes to school, he will just have no money in his hand." I didn't make it!"
Zijuan took a deep breath and suppressed the little anger that bubbled up in her heart. "How many days is late for this month's monthly money, and if you come back in a few days, I will give you the monthly money......."
β¦β¦
Before Zijuan came back, Lin Daiyu woke up and saw that there was only Snow Goose alone in the room, so she just sighed, but did not ask the reason.
"What time is it? Snow Goose, you go to Huxia to take a look, Sister Yingchun, they are up. Let's go to Jasmine Courtyard together, but don't let Sister Qing, it's good to wait for a long time!"
Although Snow Goose doesn't show much on weekdays, she is also a clever little girl. didn't let Daiyu stay in the house alone, just went out and called a rough little girl to go over to hug Xia to investigate, and she returned to the house and waited for Lin Daiyu to freshen up.
"The girl is not in a hurry, it is only now, and there is still more than half an hour before the appointed Shen time. It's too late for us to clean up slowly. β
β¦β¦
Hugging Xiali, Sanchun also woke up separately, Yingchun didn't take a nap because he had something in his heart, and he was doing needlework to pass the time at this time, while thinking about Zhou Muqing's affairs.
When the Zhou family sisters and brothers first came yesterday, they also said that they only needed to ask the old lady to say hello every day, but this morning they came with the old man and the eldest lady. One of the yards they made was in the east and the other in the northwest, and they were on different paths. It could only be Zhou Muqing who went to ask for peace. It seems that in addition to the New Year's holidays, he has never asked the old man and the wife to say goodbye.
The old man and the eldest lady seem to have softened a lot today, but they have never seen it before, and they also want to be close!
