Mrs. Shi was really there, not to mention her young son Shi Yuan, but also brought her two daughters, and when she stepped forward to ask for peace, she spoke softly, and when she looked at people, she was a little childish from her feet to her head. Mrs. Shi only gave birth to three sons, and these two were supposed to be concubines.

I had never seen Mrs. Shi take her concubine out before, but this time it was good, she brought the two directly, and they were both the same age as Daiyu. After greeting each other, they really surrounded each other from the left and right, and praised Daiyu from head to toe. Even the five blessings on a piece of white jade on the skirt have become a rare thing in their mouths that they have never seen before.

Jia Min was dragged by Sister Feng to entertain guests, and Jia Min and her daughter made eye contact. Seeing that her daughter nodded to her confidently, she took Sister Feng's hand and went over.

Mrs. Shi smiled, "I also have to go to the front to help my cousin-in-law, they will come back first, and they will trouble Daiyu to help entertain one or two." ”

"When I saw my two younger sisters, my heart was happy, and naturally I talked in one place." Daiyu gave a blessing to the gift, which can be regarded as a promise.

"My sister and I are the first time to come back, I heard that the Grand View Garden on the Rongguo Mansion is beautiful, and it really deserves its reputation when I see it today."

It was Shi Hong, who was younger and older, who spoke very well. The young Shi Qing also nodded again and again, with an expression of yearning for the Grand View Garden, and then said: "My sister and I are with Sister Lin today, the Grand View Garden is so big, I am afraid of getting lost." ”

"Let's sit together, there are so many maids and women waiting, how can you get lost." Daiyu introduced the three Jia family ladies behind her to them, and today's banquet invited the female guests into the Grand View Garden, eating tea and talking while enjoying the garden, regardless of others, this hospitality is praised by everyone.

Shi Hong and Shi Qing didn't want to sit with the Jia family's young lady, but they had no reasonable reason to refute, so they had to quickly laugh, "Exactly, a few of us are at the same table." ”

The good day of spring is just two months later, and it is more and more difficult to come out to meet people. Tanchun followed Mrs. Wang to entertain the guests, Xichun is a dustless person, and he will never go to the same place with the concubine of the Shi family. Baochai and Baoyu sat together, I didn't know what funny things I said, I smiled with a handkerchief to cover my mouth, and the affection revealed at the corners of my eyebrows and eyes was so strong that it could sweeten people to death.

Only their group is the most lively, they are all girls of the same age, one side is willing to please, the other party is listening to his words and watching his deeds, for a time it is an incomparable deed.

"Being able to drink tea here and watch the scenery is really a fairy-like enjoyment." Shi Hong thought of the Shi family and was quite touched. The historian said that the house was bigger than the Rongguo Mansion, but it was still the same sentence, and there were many people. There are many masters, many concubines, and they are distributed to each person in each room, and there are not many of them.

The young masters are a little better, and they, the young ladies, especially the concubines, don't keep sewing every day. It's a good thing to sit in the garden and watch the scenery like this, but you don't get your turn once a year.

"We think so too, this garden is for driving and repairing, and it is really the abode of the gods." Jia Qin answered, her eyes shining indescribably.

"The last time the third brother went back, he kept saying that Rongguo Mansion was so good that it was about to reach the sky, but we begged our mother for a while to bring us out to see the world." Shi Hong pursed her lips and smiled, glancing at her sister Shi Qing.

"Yes, the third brother said that Jing'er in Rongguo Mansion is good, but now that I look at it, it's not like this, a talent like Sister Lin is really not good."

Daiyu took a sip of tea, "The two sisters are really joking, Shi Gongzi should be talking about the two younger sisters of Jiafu, you should have seen it today, people are indeed good and have nothing to say." ”

rolled her eyes in her heart, she was not surnamed Jia.

"Sister Lin is also the cousin of Jiafu, the same." Shi Qing laughed again.

"Sister Shi is right, your sisters are also cousins in Jiafu, and they are all the same."

These words made the two Shi family ladies not know how to pick it up, Daiyu's eyes were slightly cold, what kind of drama were they singing. Finish singing early, and everyone will be in peace.

Jia Qin tried to reconcile the atmosphere again, and said with a smile: "What's the point of just drinking tea, it's better to come and play Shuanglu." ”

Jammeh shouted yes, she was a little more lively, and she was not afraid of life, so she called the little girl to serve them a chessboard, and began to discuss with great interest what to do, and the atmosphere became warm again.

As she was talking, the little girl came up to add tea to them, and knocked over Lin Daiyu's teacup carelessly, and the tea was poured directly on her skirt. Several girls got up in surprise, Xingguo was a hot temper, and pushed the little girl, "What are you doing, it's not good to pour a cup of tea." ”

This push, she was still carrying a teapot in her hand, and Jia Qin and Jia Mei next to her were wet with their clothes and skirts.

"Alas, what's going on, hurry up, send the ladies to the front to change clothes." Immediately, a mother-in-law came over, Agarwood is a big girl, looked around, and immediately said: "Our young lady has a change of clothes, Bai Lu hurry up and get it." Miss Qin and Miss Mei came in a hurry, I am afraid that they will not have time to bring a change of clothes, and they will have to trouble their mother to prepare. ”

"Where is she going, I still have a few sets of topless clothes there, go get two sets from me." Baochai saw that he had taken his body, and Jia Qin and Jia Mei hurriedly thanked him.

"Go to my house and change." Tanchun also came over when he heard the voice, but he was in a hurry to make a mother-in-law and a little maid pour water.

In the end, it is in her grandfather's house, Mrs. Wang is afraid that she will not be able to cover the sky with one hand, Daiyu secretly knows in her heart, and thanks to Tanchun.

Tanchun simply accompanied her personally, Daiyu didn't have much contact with her, thinking that some time ago, she used her eight characters to drag the second room into the water, causing discord between the two rooms, and ruining the family affair between Sun Shaozu and Yingchun. Although this matter is to save the spring from fire and water, it is actually not kind enough to the spring.

If you want to say that Yi Tanchun is shrewd, and he helps the director in the house, he doesn't know how tired he is, but he doesn't say anything, and he doesn't say a word when he sees himself, and treats her as before. Such a breeze and bright moon, quite the wind under the forest, made her embarrassed.

"It's bothering you, Lian's second sister-in-law is relying on you, but it's just for us to delay things." Daiyu was carrying her skirt in one hand, and Tanchun was holding her in the other, and the two walked in the front, Jia Qin and Jia Mei followed honestly.

"It's just to help my sister-in-law run errands, what kind of dependence, but Aunt Lin said that my sister has learned to be the director of the house, and she takes care of it in an orderly manner." When Tanchun said this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, how could it be the same as her mother who taught her by hand, and she was all on her own.

If it weren't for the fact that she showed her face in front of the old lady, and the second sister-in-law of Lian brought herself a little bit for the sake of her fame, I'm afraid she would still be in the corner like Yingchun and ashes.

"I'm a director of the house, just messing around. I had the opportunity to listen to many interesting stories outside, which I hadn't had the chance to hear before. Daiyu glanced at her meaningfully.

Daiyu obviously felt her arm stiffen, and said: "If you don't tell an interesting story, let the sisters have a good time, you should be punished." ”

"This interesting thing is, the emperor is reluctant to marry his own daughter far away, so he let those mothers, princesses, recognize their daughters everywhere, and become substitutes for the dead after recognizing and giving them a title. You say, isn't that interesting? ”

Tanchun wants to say, what kind of interesting thing is this, it is simply a tragedy in the world. My aunt's daughter is pampered or not, and she can't even tell the difference between good and bad.

No, this sister of the Lin family has never been close to their sisters. But when he talks and does things, he doesn't look like a fool. It's the first time I've talked to myself so affectionately, isn't it...... Meaningful.

But why do you want to tell yourself, she raised her head suddenly, twisted her neck with some difficulty, and looked at Lin Daiyu. I saw her pair of watery eyes sink towards her, and let out an inaudible sigh.

"It's really interesting." Tanchun didn't know how she said these words, and even the things that her grandmother told her had long been left behind.

Regarding her eight characters, she finally understood, she was angry about this matter for half a month. But because Yingchun also had to get rid of Sun Shaozu in this matter, she could only stop being angry. Now that I think about it, I really feel that my grandmother has lost her eyes. Such a person, where can she be at her mercy?

"Don't go to this one, this one across the street." Forcibly changed the room, Daiyu could feel it, and Tanchun's voice was trembling.

Xingguo quickly sent her clothes over, and Tanchun accompanied her to change her clothes, wanting to ask a few more questions, but she didn't know how to speak. Daiyu saw that the handkerchief in her hand was about to be wrenched, and her mouth tightened even more. In this matter, she knows very well that she can't help at all.

All she could do was let Tanchun know in advance and be prepared. If she can save herself, it would be the best. Even if you can't, at least you can think clearly and put forward a few conditions. It's better than being caught off guard and being pinched directly.

Tanchun kept shaking, and at the end, she suddenly smiled bitterly, "I have an aunt and a younger brother, and I ...... That's it, thank you, sister. I can't repay it, I can only remind that my mother asked me to bring a few sisters over to change clothes, and I don't know the rest. ”

"Sister don't worry." Daiyu changed her clothes, and Tanchun stayed in her house under the pretext of having a headache.

The wings on the east and west sides are specially cleaned out to entertain guests, in case there is a headache and brain fever in the miss, or she is unwell, or she temporarily changes her clothes, accompanied by the host's family, and it is the yard of the young lady, naturally rest assured.

The world thinks that the east is respected, and with such a thoughtful temperament as Tanchun, Lin Daiyu will inevitably be invited into the east wing, and the other two Jia family ladies will naturally go to the west wing. I'm afraid that Tanchun thought of this, so he temporarily changed direction.

And Agarwood is behind Jia Qin, everyone is a girl of the same age, and today Daiyu deliberately combed the same bun as the other three Jia family ladies. The next person didn't dare to stare at the young lady, if he only looked at the agarwood, I was afraid that he really thought that Jia Qin was Lin Daiyu.

"Miss Mei has changed, Miss Qin." Xingguo saw that Jia Mei had changed her clothes and was waiting for them, but she didn't see Jia Qin come out.

"It's okay, Miss Qin asked the slave maid to come out first to serve Miss, saying that she knew the way. It's better to let Xingguo wait and send Miss Qin over in a while. Agarwood thought to herself, there is no reason to let her young lady wait, not to mention, I don't know what is going on here, it is better to return to the banquet as soon as possible.

"Then you can stay." Daiyu was as good as a stream, and went back with Jia Mei, and half of the refreshments were eaten, only to see Xingguo coming in a hurry with people.

Jia Qin confessed, but her face was much more rosy than before, and her eyes were a little better. Xingguo slipped around Jia Qin's head, and Agarwood immediately found that a white jade lotus hairpin inserted on Jia Qin's head was missing.

Taking the opportunity to go to the clean room, Xingguo leaned into Daiyu's ear and said: "When the slave and maid went, outside one window and one window, they were still complaining to each other. What is the first time I see it, what roots and what seeds, and not flowers, the slave maid really can't understand what the third young master of the Shi family is saying? ”

Daiyu sneered, "Who did you learn from such a poor person." "Go and pinch Xingguo's bun face right now.

Xingguo covered her face with a grin, "The slave is so loyal and capable, Miss doesn't say that she rewards and pinches others, and the slave and maid are so wronged." ”

After a while, he said: "Third Young Master Shi still said that the world can be learned, as if the courtiers in the drama are loyal to the emperor." If it's true, it's almost a curse swear. ”

"Miss Qin didn't say anything, let him mess around?"

"How could she say it, anyway, through the window, no one can see anyone. The third young master of the Shi family said a lot, and the slave maid was very anxious for him, and finally handed a bracelet through the crack in the window. Seeing Miss Jia Qin hand out the white jade lotus hairpin on her head, the third young master of the Shi family stuffed it into his arms and covered it tightly. ”

Daiyu shrugged her shoulders with a smile, and suddenly thought that if she entered this room by herself.

As long as he calls the maid in or leaves when he speaks, he does not give him a private lecture, and no one can do anything to her. Through the window, it is not easy for him to want to get in, and it will inevitably alarm his subordinates.

It's not that the Wang family left her room to arrange it in the courtyard of Tanchun, and arranged such a show. It seems that he has beaten widely, and he has no intention of dying.

In fact, Wang's wants to be a watch, and wants to set up a memorial arch. Helped the Shi family to lead the line and do things, and in the end, if the Lin family made a big fuss, they could push three, four, six, if it wasn't for the girl's own interest, who could force her to listen to this, let alone force her to send love to each other.

There is also a Jia mother above the Wang family, if she doesn't act like this, she will be held by Jia Mu, but she will suffer. It's really thoughtful and scheming in all aspects.

"Alright, we've been out long enough, and there's still a big show to listen to in a while." Daiyu knew what was going on, and she knew what they were going to sing later.

Since Jia Min rejected the other party's proposal, I am afraid that the historian will make this matter ironclad, so that Jia Min will marry if he does not marry. I really don't know where the Shi family got such a big confidence, and I think that Lin Ruhai can bear his concubine being so calculated by them.

The two sisters on the table have already begun to fight, and the two sisters of the Shi family are only watching chess, whispering a few words from time to time, and others only think that they are talking about the chess game, and they don't mind.

"If the third brother can really marry the girl of the Lin family, taking advantage of the enthusiasm that we have just made a meritorious service, my sister must mention it to her mother and find a good family for you to marry."

"Stinky girl, this kind of thing can be said outside." Shi Hong saw that no one noticed what they were saying, so he responded.

"I don't say it outside, and I don't have a place to say it at home." Thinking of the cramped and cramped room at home, and the days when there were a few pairs of ears listening to it next door, the words that came out were even more heartfelt, "As long as my sister is well, don't forget my sister when I go outside, and I will be grateful for my sister when I have time to carry one or two." ”

"If you can be satisfied, you will never forget your sister." Shi Hong squeezed her sister's hand, hoping that her mother-in-law would remember what she had said.

The third young master of the Shi family has been led to Baoyu's side by Mrs. Wang, "You don't know how to help entertain your cousin, your brother will stay in one place first, and then go to the front to meet the guests later." ”

Baoyu helplessly arched his hand with the third young master of the historian, "Cousin." ”

"Don't be polite, cousin." For this cousin of the Jia family, Shi Yuan was quite envious, how could he be in the backyard, so many sisters and sisters, did not say that they avoided him.

I moved to the front yard when I was only ten years old, and I was really more popular than people. Seeing that he was a pink beauty on the left and right, a pair of eyes couldn't help but look at it.

Baochai looked displeased and stood up, "I'll go talk to Sister Lin, Baoyu will entertain the Shi family's cousin." ”

Shi Hong and Shi Qing hurriedly walked up to Shi Yuan, they were their own sisters, so there was no need to avoid suspicion. It's just that Shi Yuan has some regrets, he would rather stay by his side than his own sister.

Looking at the past with a wrong eye, Lin Daiyu's figure was like a beautiful bright color among the crowd, and everyone else was lined up like vulgar powder at once. Thinking that I can get my wish today, my heart is like a deer, and there is joy in my eyes that can't be hidden.

The threshold of the historian family is high, but the family background is not thick, and he is the youngest son who cannot inherit the title, and it is not so easy to find a good family affair with a substance and face. But Shi Yuan didn't know, he only knew that his mother said every day how many families wanted to marry their daughters to him.

His mother often took him out to see each other, usually because he looked down on others, and he wanted to be beautiful and have a unique temperament, and he didn't meet for half a year. What the historian wants, people can't look down on, let alone let his daughter show others.

Mrs. Shi was really confused, Shi Yuan was coaxed by his mother and confused, and he didn't realize that there was anything wrong with going to see the young lady first without saying hello.

For the Lin family's refusal, Shi Yuan was even more angry than Mrs. Shi Da. He really didn't understand why the Lin family would refuse if he was good in everything. In addition, Lin Daiyu's appearance really entered his heart, and he wanted to appeal to her.

At this moment, his heart has been settled, the corners of his lips are slightly upturned and he is pinching a white jade lotus hairpin in his sleeve, and his mood is like boiling water spitting bubbles, happy.

"Didn't the third brother Mo get something good, and he collected it so tightly, are you afraid that my sister won't be able to rob it." Shi Hong giggled, Shi Qing sang and played with her, and asked Shi Yuan to take out the good things he got and take a look.

Shi Yuan's eyes widened, no matter how confused he was, he knew that the matter of exchanging tokens in private could not be known. He rejoiced in his heart, but he didn't intend to make it known to everyone. But the two younger sisters usually see him at home, like a mouse meeting a cat, and the inverted brother and sister are deeply affectionate at this time, blindly messing with him, the third brother.

"That's it, it must be that the third brother has a good thing, and my sister doesn't want you, so it's good to take it out and take a look." Shi Qing covered his mouth and smiled, and explained to Baoyu, "Usually we are used to playing at home, but Second Brother Bao should not think that our sisters are vulgar." ”

Baoyu is a person who can't walk when she sees the girl's house, and she has to come up and say a few words when she sees a beautiful thing, but at this moment, it seems to be a different person. only glared at Shi Yuan, and looked at Daiyu suspiciously, he was very uncomfortable when he hung himself in his heart.

No matter how you look at it, I am a little stronger than this Shi Yuan. Did you really fall in love with this kid from the Shi family, but it doesn't make sense.

In Daiyu's heart, Baoyu and Shi Yuan are really half-hearted, and they are not what she wants anyway.

"Don't make trouble, there's nothing good, there are two jade cards, you can go and play." Shi Yuan didn't know that this was ordered by his mother, so he just thought that the two younger sisters took the opportunity to ask for his things in front of outsiders, took out two pieces of jade from their sleeves and gave them to them.

Who knew that Shi Hong's eyes were sharp, and by taking the jade plate, he snatched the white jade lotus hairpin in his sleeve into his hand, and raised it above his head triumphantly, "You still say that there is no good thing, so what is this?" ”

"Give me back." Shi Yuan was furious, and stepped forward to grab it, but he didn't know that Shi Qing was clever, so he threw the hairpin to Shi Hong, and he pinched his wrist and screamed with all his strength.

This call attracted everyone's attention, and some servants came in a panic and hurriedly reported to the front.

"What's going on?" Mrs. Wang was the first to appear, she was the host's family, and it was not surprising that she came earlier.

"Second aunt, yes, it's not good for us, playing with the third brother and taking out one of his precious hairpins, which annoys him." Shi Hong was crying, but she was still holding the white hosta tightly, without the slightest relaxation.

Mrs. Wang's eyes flashed, and she restrained her faint smile, "Qing'er is not joking, Yuan'er is a young man, how can there be a girl's hairpin." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all in an uproar, yes, how could Shi Yuan have a hairpin for a woman. Only Baoyu is sure in his heart, other men may not be able to recognize these hairpins, but Baoyu can recognize this white jade lotus hairpin at a glance is definitely not a jade thing.

Jia Min is very particular about the things her daughter uses, and she pays attention to low-key luxury and connotation. The hairpin of the white jade must be the best mutton fat jade, and there is not a trace of flaw before she can wear it on her head.

Although this white hosta is also a good thing, Baoyu, who is used to seeing what Jia's mother is hiding, can tell at a glance that this is a gift taken out by rich and noble people, simply put, given away. It's not light, it's worth some silver, but it's not particularly valuable.

Mrs. Wang was far from being so interested in Daiyu, so she naturally didn't know that her son had thoroughly studied the things Daiyu was wearing. When she got the evidence, hidden under the forehead lines of the crouched Sichuan characters, it was her smile that she thought she had succeeded.

"Yuan'er, whose thing is this hairpin, my son, you, do you want to kill me in a hurry?" Mrs. Shi came over, took the white hosta from Shi Qing's hand, and raised her eyebrows where Chong Daiyu was standing.

Daiyu smiled in response, standing gently and gently, without the slightest hint of panic, stabbing into Mrs. Shi's eyes, and her heart jumped for no reason. Aren't you scared at all when you get the evidence? I still want to shout it out and let it be a foregone conclusion.

She hesitated, and just between the hesitations, Jia Min also rushed over, "It's so decent, what is the Shi family's cousin messing with these children." ”

Agarwood had already sneaked to the front and told her about the matter, and she asked Agarwood to tell her daughter and leave it to her as the master.

"I'm making trouble, what am I making trouble, my son can't have this kind of thing, he must have got it today, of course I have to ask clearly." Mrs. Shi's hesitation disappeared immediately after Jia Min spoke.
