Chapter 18 Sister Lu goes to see Daiyu
"Daddy, who is the aunt next door, and why does my aunt's daughter go to Beijing?"
Jia Jing held his sister in his arms, touched the bell of Sister Lu's hairline, glared at Jia Qiang, as if dissatisfied with his intervention, and then popularized it to his sister.
"We haven't had an aunt and grandmother in Ningguofu, next door to Rongguofu, your grandfather has had four daughters, and the other three are concubines, either died or married away with her husband's family, and are not often contacted, only your Aunt Min is a concubine, and the youngest, she has been smart and clever since she was a child, and she has been incomprehensible in poetry and songs, and then she was married to the Gusulin family, and she has not been pregnant for many years, and she has opened her arms over the years, and gave birth to one of your sisters, whose name is Daiyu, and gave birth to a brother, but maybe it was a few years ago in order to get pregnant, and she was broken, and the brother she gave birth to was weak, and she died at the age of three。 The old lady thought about the white-haired person sending the black-haired person, and her heart ached for a while, and she was worried that the identity of your sister Lin's widowed eldest daughter would make people question her upbringing, so she took her to Beijing. Of course, there is also the intention of using Daiyu to hold Lin Ruhai hostage, and in the future, whether Lin Ruhai marries a stepwife or not, he will have to inform the Jia family. But this can't be told to Sister Sù, Jia Jing thought secretly.
"What is a widow's eldest daughter?" asked Sister Lu.
"When your upbringing grandmother arrives, she will explain it to you in detail. Okay, sister, aren't you here to listen to this?"
Sister stuck out her tongue naughtily, jumped off Jia Jing's knee, dragged Brother Qiang'er's hand to the desk, climbed onto the chair, and pulled out her own literacy book and "Thousand Character Text" from the bookcase on the side.
The study is filled with a touch of warmth.
In fact, my sister secretly complained in her heart, my sister studied for so many years, once she returned to before the liberation, she became semi-illiterate, she originally just wanted to pretend, and then find a chance to look at historical records and the like, but she casually smoked a thin book, and she couldn't read a word, and she couldn't even distinguish sentences, so she could only obediently start by recognizing words.
Jia Jing doesn't care how much she learns, but she just spends her free time and experiences the fun of teaching her daughter. I don't want Jia Lu to be talented, she can memorize more than ten words a day, even if she forgets seven, seven, eighty-eight on the second day, she is much better than ordinary children, and for a while she actually had the idea of raising her as a man, so she is not restricted, Brother Qiang handed in the words first, and after that, he also let him listen when he gave a lecture to Brother Qiang.
The days of learning (mixing) in the study passed quickly.
Inadvertently entered the middle of winter. Since Sister Lu learned from her father that Jia Min had passed away and Lin Daiyu was going to Beijing to enter Jiafu, she asked people to go to Rongguo Mansion from time to time to find out when Lin Daiyu would arrive. Rongning Erfu is not as close as before, although Sister Lu has gone to Rongguo Mansion, but she can't play with Yingchun and cherish spring, and Liangchun is busy studying, and she is not very close to it. Daiyu's arrival made Ningguofu's baby Gada attach so much importance to it, although Rongguofu had doubts about it, but he didn't care about it, Wang Xifeng said directly, Miss Lin will give notice before she comes, Sister Lu.
At noon one day, Sister Lu had just woken up, and a girl came to report that Miss Lin's boat had arrived ashore, and Rongguo Mansion had sent someone to invite her. Sister Lu suddenly sobered up. I dragged a pair of embroidered shoes and was about to go out.
That's Lin Daiyu, the goddess of all China! Ever since I knew that it was the Red Mansion, I had always wanted to see what the peerless Lin Fairy looked like.
Mother Wang held a bowl of red rice and almond porridge from the outside, looked at the girl who was about to go out, and knew that this sister had been looking forward to this Lin girl, and she didn't dare to stop it too much, and she was worried that her sister would catch a cold.
"My good sister, don't say anything to drink, you have to put on a cloak and get a hand stove! It's cold outside at this time!" I don't know why my sister values this Lin girl so much, and the sisters of the same clan are not as good, not to mention the Shi girl who often loves to laugh and make trouble.
Sister Lu returned to the cage reasonably, watched Wang's mother take out the big red cloak with the rabbit side, and looked at the goose yellow home-style jacket she was wearing, such a bright color, quite suitable for children of this age, but the sister knew that this Daiyu was born after losing her mother, although her upbringing was not yet in place, but as a modern person, she also knew that the person who guarded filial piety could not wear too gaudy, and thought of the brilliant embroidered Wang Xifeng worn by Lin Daiyu when she entered Jiafu in the Red Mansion, and the scene when Mrs. Zhang went to Rongguo Mansion to wear red and willow, and for a while, her feelings were low。
Mother Wang didn't know why, she saw her sister wave her hand, and asked Jiao Qian to change into plain clothes, although Mother Wang is not smart, but she has stayed in this intriguing mansion a lot, taught by her husband and mother-in-law, and after what happened a year ago, it is not as simple as in Jinling, and she has learned to look at people's eyes. Without further ado, he took out a plain cloak again, thought about the chill outside, and found a pair of small boots with soft fluff inside the deerskin.
Sister Lu was not in a hurry, changed her clothes, and went to ask his wife Han for peace first. It happened that Zhang was chatting with her, and Mrs. Han was not worried about Sister Lu, so she asked Zhang to accompany her.
Holding the stove in his hand, he went to Rongguo Mansion in the car.
Again, it was entered through the West Corner Gate.
Speaking of which, many Red Mansion fandom used Lin Daiyu entering Jiafu from the corner gate to criticize Jiafu's contempt for Lin Daiyu, but in fact, it seems that this is just a marginal game.
In ancient times, the main gate was generally not opened, and in the past, it would only be opened for the male bloodline in the family, the patriarch of the family, the nobles and officials with prominent status, and the direct members of the family during red and white ceremonies, or what kind of banquets were held. The two corner gates here are only about fifty meters away from the main gate, and the west corner gate is very close to Jia's mother's Rongxi Hall, so naturally it will not be some people who buy or do not enter the stream.
Lin Daiyu, as a junior and a female dependent, is not a big mistake in reasoning, and she can be mixed up if she is negligent. Of course, in order to show the importance or love of the family, it is also okay to open the main entrance to welcome Lin Daiyu. If Lin Daiyu's father accompanies her, the middle door must be opened.
It can be seen from the map of the Red Mansion that the middle of the main house is Rongxi Hall, on the left is where Jia's mother lives, and on the right is where Jia Zhengwang's family lives.
In ancient times, the old lady loved the young son, and it was not for nothing that the young son lived in the main house with the **, but usually in the ancient house, after the death of the older generation, his wife would generally move to a quiet courtyard and live in another house, and there was a new generation of the husband and wife who lived in the main house.
But in Jiafu, Jia's mother dragged it and didn't move, and Jia Yu and his former wife couldn't force her to move, otherwise an unfilial hat would be enough for them to eat for a minute.
After the Zhang family went, the identity of the Xing family who came back was too low to manage the family, only the Wang family, who was born in everyone, could manage it well, and the wife of the family also had the power to manage the subordinates through the land of Rongxi Hall.
Then Wang Xifeng entered the house, and Mrs. Wang handed over the housekeeper's rights, although she did not hand over the key, but who knows to outsiders, only Wang Xifeng, the wife of the eldest son of the head of Rongguo Mansion, is the grandmother of the house. Those who know can only say that the old lady is too partial, and cannot be completely said to be unruly.
Thinking of this, Sister Lu is a little lucky, she didn't wear it into Rongguo Mansion, this is terrible, I haven't changed it if I want to change it, this Rongguo Mansion looks unruly, but he didn't make any mistakes on his face, I'm tired!
The author has something to say: This chapter is going to be divided into the next volume, but I posted the article first, and I added the volume, and now I can't change it, so everyone looks at it like this, and it doesn't affect the effect anyway.
