Chapter Eighty-Eight: Summoned

Everyone chose their own houses, and went back to move all the furnishings from the original house one after another. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Jia Yu and Jia Zheng first sent a cook to warm the stove, and found someone to calculate the auspicious day in three days. On this day, all the people in Rongguo Mansion moved over.

The people in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion moved to live in the house next to the small flower house. Zijuan was cleaning up in the house, Qingwen was teaching the little girl, and Daiyu was sorting out some of the lonely books she had brought with her and a stack of copied manuscripts. Some of these solitary books were left by Lin Ruhai, and some were given by Miaoyu.

Lin Daiyu thought that these books were rare in the world, and it was a pity that they could not be circulated by her side. So every day he diligently copied some of them, compiled them into a book, and prepared them to be sent for printing.

The hut at the foot of the West Mountain still has a large collection of books, and some of them are not found on the market. Since the smooth sailing helped the Jia family solve these hidden dangers at a fairly small cost, Daiyu occasionally went over to look through the books there.

In her spare time, Daiyu also wants to open a small bookstore. Sell some good pen and ink, paper, books, calligraphy and paintings. Qianyunxuan has opened a second store in Kyoto, and Suzhou has been a steady stream of customers, and she already has enough ability to do what she likes.

After settling down in her new home, Daiyu allocated part of her spare time to take care of the flower room.

In the flower room, there are some flowers that the previous owner did not take away: a few rare black orchids, Yao Huang, and camellias, all of which are precious and delicate varieties. No wonder the people who sold the houses didn't move them.

It's the Mid-Autumn Festival in a blink of an eye.

Mother Jia ordered to take out all the good materials in the warehouse and tailor clothes for the girls.

Li Kun opened the storeroom and brought out a lot of red satin, sprinkled with flowers and crepe cloud brocade, flowered eight tuans of satin, autumn mink skin, gray squirrel skin, yellow silk, feather satin, white fox armpits, sable skin, makeup satin, python satin, Western cloth, moon white yarn, feather yarn, Doro, foreign thread silk, sea dragon skin, Tianma skin, finch gold, cloud fox skin, fragrant fox skin, feather crepe, 氆氇, kudzu cloth and many other materials.

Mother Jia was full of sadness and personally inspected them one by one. And he took out some of the soft cigarettes and made them for the sisters, and took out the sable, and the white fox's armpits, and the doroni, and the feather satin, and the feather yarn, and the feather tweed, and the feather yarn, and the feather tweed, and the horses of satin, that they might cut their autumn clothes.

Jia's mother picked out some good materials that had been overgrown and distributed them to Lin Daiyu, Yingchun and Tanchun, saying that they were left for them to press the box. In addition, he took some green satin, purple silk and other materials, and left them for Jia Yu and Jia Zheng to make clothes.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhuangzi sent pheasants, wild ducks, and all kinds of seasonal vegetables and millet, as well as a deer. It was the first festival after moving, and Jia Zheng deliberately held it happily, and ordered the little maid to buy a lot of lanterns, and exquisite lanterns were hung under the eaves everywhere.

Lin Daiyu and the three little girls of Yingchun and Tanchun went to the kitchen to learn how to make moon cakes with the cook, and also learned to make different patterns with printed molds, and served them on the table in the evening.

This Mid-Autumn Festival, although there is no filial piety of officials everywhere, only everyone gathers together, and they all want to be lively, but it is more affectionate than the festivals of the previous days.

At the second watch in the evening, suddenly someone knocked at the door. When the little servant opened the door, he saw two little eunuchs accompanying the attendants, and a big eunuch standing at the foot of the door, with three horses beside him. The little guy didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly ran in to report.

When Jia Yu and Jia Zheng heard this, their hearts were tight, and they hurriedly greeted them, and they refused to slack off in the number of courtesies.

The eunuch smiled and said, "Lord Jia has moved to this Xicheng, but it is easy for our family to find it." ”

Jia Zhenglian said "don't dare", while inviting the eunuch to go in and drink tea. In the middle of the polite words, a silver ticket of one hundred taels was quietly handed to the eunuch.

The eunuch squinted his eyes, his smile became even stronger, and he arched his hand and said, "Don't dare to go in and disturb Lord Jia's family reunion, this is a gift sent by Concubine Xian, please Lord Jia order it." As he spoke, he handed over the gift list.

Jia Zheng vaguely guessed this, and couldn't help but have mixed feelings at the moment. When the news reached the inner courtyard, Mother Jia and Mrs. Wang couldn't help but burst into tears.

The palace sent down the festival ceremony, which means that Yuan Chun is still valued in the palace, but because of the recent series of blows from the Jia family, he has to avoid the limelight and act in a low-key manner.

Jia Zheng sent the eunuchs away with kind words, and sent them out of the long street, and disappeared into the darkness and couldn't be seen, which made the little servant close the door and go back. The Jia family has many Mid-Autumn Festivals, but this one is unforgettable.

Moving into a new house, it seems that the extraordinarily strict rules of those large families have become much more tolerant. Elders have become tolerant, not just harsh.

Lin Daiyu was also allowed to go out shopping and play jewelry, and the same is true for spring exploration and spring greeting. In contrast, this new house of the Jia family has more of a family atmosphere.

During the Double Ninth Festival, Lin Daiyu, Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were summoned by the palace and entered the palace to accompany Yuanchun.

Seeing each other again, Yuan Chun's figure has lost a little weight, but his spirit is still the same, and he even has some more wisdom after precipitation. Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang were relieved.

Lin Daiyu was summoned to see the queen, and then the queen mother. I heard that the Queen Mother is very interested in this little girl with a unique heart.

Lin Daiyu has been to the deep palace once, and she is less afraid of everything here and more cautious.

The Queen Mother is over fifty years old, with slightly white hair and a slight plump body, and if she ignores the bright yellow satin and solemn atmosphere that fills the room, she looks very kind and homely.

Lin Daiyu bowed down with reverence and caution, and was allowed to sit on the couch on the side.

The Queen Mother squinted her eyes and looked at Daiyu for a while, then smiled at the queen: "It's good looking, it's good heart." I was in a trance, remembering what you were like when you were a kid. ”

The queen smiled: "Do you remember what the concubine looked like when she was a child?" Is it really that good? ”

As she spoke, she couldn't stop looking at Daiyu, Lin Daiyu was flushed when she saw it, and she hurriedly got up modestly.

The queen smiled and asked her to sit down. This time, I didn't say anything else, and asked her what interesting scenery there was in Suzhou, how to take a boat when she went, how to sacrifice, and how the academy was built.

Lin Daiyu talked about the experience on the road, picked up the fun and interesting ones, and told them one by one about the performances and monkeys on the street in front of Guanqian, the fire-breathing, several scenic spots, how to chant scriptures and release life on the water and land dojos, and how to build the academy. When the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother widened their eyes and expressed interest, they talked about the details in detail.

The Queen Mother paid attention to the folk sacrifices, asked a few more questions with great interest, and asked about the academy: "I heard that it was your idea to build a women's courtyard?" ”

Daiyu hurriedly stood up and said, "Jiangzhu doesn't dare." The building of the academy was discussed by my uncle and the officials involved in the construction, and I heard that only useless men preach that 'women are virtuous if they are not talented'. ”
