Chapter 270: Concubine Yinglian
The next day, after Lin Daiyu got up, she first asked people to go to the monks of Fayuan Temple to ask for two auspicious days, the time for Yinglian to pass through the door was set for February 18, and the time for Zijuan to pass through the door was set for February 20.
In the afternoon, Lu Jing and Daiyu carried flower hoes and transplanted a few plum trees to the flower mound.
In the evening, Daiyu informed Yinglian and Zijuan about the entry of the two of them.
In the next few days, several people were busy planning out the backyard and setting up two three-bedroom courtyards as the residences of Yinglian and Zijuan.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye, and on February 18, Lin Daiyu specially found Xi Pozi to open Yinglian's face and promoted her to Lu Jing's concubine.
Although Yinglian has always regarded herself as a maid in the house, Lu Jing has already repaid her deed of sale, so Daiyu is the master and accepts her as a good concubine.
The Lu family gave Yinglian 800 taels of silver, two sets of head jewelry and four pieces of silk as concubines.
After Yinglian opened her face, she came to meet Daiyu in a wedding dress, saluted Daiyu, and offered tea.
Daiyu sat on the main seat, and after taking a sip of tea, she instructed with a solemn face: "My sister has now entered the door of the Lu family, and she is a member of the Lu family. ”
Yinglian hurriedly bowed: "Yinglian must remember Madame's words, and everything is under Madame's orders." ”
Qingwen then took out a rolling pin and handed it to Daiyu, this is both a custom and a rule of the Lu family, when the concubine enters the room, she must accept the lesson of the main wife, and the main wife needs to beat it with a stick.
Daiyu didn't want to embarrass Yinglian, and after taking the rolling pin, she only knocked lightly on Yinglian's back three times, which was considered a lesson.
Yinglian was secretly grateful in her heart, and she was more respectful to Daiyu, and she was more dedicated to Daiyu.
Dai Yufu handed the rolling pin to Qingwen and said with a smile: "Sister, please get up!" ”
Yinglian gave Daiyu another salute before getting up, and then stood beside Daiyu and obeyed Daiyu's orders.
Qingwen looked at this scene and nodded secretly to praise Daiyu, knowing that unlike others who take care of their reputation, Daiyu is kind-hearted, so she is not embarrassed Yinglian, and she is secretly happy in her heart: "The Lu family has such a kind-hearted and not easy to be fooled, and it is difficult for the back house to be unstable." ”
Daiyu still let Yinglian live in her original room, and promoted Huidie to the eldest maid and allocated it to Yinglian.
Yinglian thanked her again, then went back to her room to change her new makeup, and returned to Daiyu to serve.
Although the concubines did not welcome relatives or set up banquets, Lu Jing and Daiyu still arranged for the mansion to celebrate, and ordered eight tables of meals from Yuhua Building, and everyone in the mansion participated in the celebration.
After the feast, Lu Jing accompanied Daiyu back to the bedroom, and Yinglian also accompanied her.
On the first night of the concubine's room, the husband cannot stay in the concubine's room, but needs to spend the night in the wife's room, and the concubine must stay in the room and watch.
Lu Jing talked with Daiyu, and Daiyu saw that the night was getting darker, so she said, "Husband, let's take Sister Yinglian back." ”
Lu Jing was worried that the newcomer would enter the door and snub Daiyu, she would think about it more, so she hurriedly shook her head and refused: "I will accompany Mrs. tonight." ”
Daiyu said with a slight annoyance: "When will the husband start to learn from those pedantic Confucianists, what rules are still worth abiding, you and Sister Yinglian stay here, I can't sleep well, you go quickly!" With that, he pushed Lu Jing to get up.
Yinglian hurriedly said: "Let the master stay with my sister, and Yinglian will go back to the room first." Then he turned to leave.
Daiyu hurriedly grabbed her and said, "Although my sister and husband did not visit the church, today is also a good day for my sister, and I must not let my sister stay alone in the empty room." ”
Seeing this, Lu Jing asked Yinglian to go back to the room first, and then gently hugged Daiyu and comforted: "Why should Mrs. wronged herself? ”
Daiyu shook her head and smiled: "Where is the concubine wronged, Sister Yinglian has already been admitted to the room by you, Zijuan is also set by the concubine, today Sister Yinglian's crossing is just a formality, it is a matter that has been set a long time ago, even if the concubine is wronged, she has already been wronged." ”
As he spoke, he pushed Lu Jing and said, "Go quickly, don't stay with me, go to be your groom's official." ”
Lu Jing hugged Daiyu tightly and said, "My bride is only you, and I will only be your groom's official." ”
Daiyu sneered slightly: "My husband knows how to say some good things to coax me, but I don't know who you are thinking about!" ”
Lu Jing hurriedly reassured: "Isn't my heart already encircled by Mrs. and filled with the word 'Dai', Mrs. is so good to me, how can I think of others!" ”
When Daiyu saw him mention the events of that day, she was shy in her heart, and hurriedly said: "Since you know that I am good to you, don't make me sad in the future!" ”
Lu Jing hurriedly promised: "It's too late for me to love you, how can I make you sad!" ”
Daiyu nodded and said, "Husband, let's go quickly, don't let Sister Yinglian wait." ”
Lu Jing shook his head and said, "I'll be with you tonight." ”
Daiyu hurriedly persuaded: "Husband, don't be like this, if people know, they still think how jealous I am, what does this make Sister Yinglian think about being a concubine." ”
Lu Jing thought for a while and said, "I'll talk to you, and I'll go over when you fall asleep." ”
Seeing this, Daiyu nodded and fell down, lying on the bed and talking to him, until the middle of the night, Daiyu thought that if her husband didn't go over, Sister Yinglian should be sad, so she pretended to be sleepy and drove him away.
After Lu Jing kissed Daiyu goodbye, he went out of the warm jade hall and came to Yinglian's room, seeing that the candlelight was still lit in the room, and the whole room was also renovated and furnished into a new room. ”
Yinglian raised her pretty face and said with a smile: "Yinglian is willing to wait as long as she wants." ”
Then he asked affectionately: "Do you see Yinglian looking good in this wedding dress?" ”
Lu Jing said with a smile: "Good-looking, the tooth comb is slanted, the cloud nest is golden, the moth eyebrows are lightly swept, the pink cheeks are light and even, the water clippers are like peach blossoms, even if the painter can't describe such a good-looking beauty." ”
Ying Lian's eyes smiled like a crescent moon when she heard this, and her voice was full of joy: "This is what I painted by myself just now!" ”
Lu Jing hugged her and asked, "When was your wedding dress made?" ”
Yinglian said with a smile: "I started to do it when I was in Suzhou, but I did it secretly at night, Yinglian knew that she couldn't wear a wedding dress and marry Yebaitang, but she still wanted her to see Yinglian in a wedding dress." ”
After hearing this, Lu Jing was moved in her heart, and Yinglian did not lose Daiyu in terms of her infatuation with herself, so she let go of Yinglian, let her get up and dance, and let herself take a closer look.
Yinglian got up and danced, the sleeves were flying, the fragrance was overflowing, the mandarin duck and the bird embroidered on it seemed to come to life, and it was also dancing, Yinglian was dressed in red, and the whole person was like a burning flame, bright and moving.
Lu Jing hurriedly got up and hugged her and danced gently, and said affectionately: "You look very charming in your wedding dress." ”
Yinglian smiled like a flower and said: "Well, if the master comes over again in the future, Yinglian will wear it a few more times." ”
Lu Jing saw that she was delicate and charming, so she grabbed her lips and kissed her, and Yinglian also responded enthusiastically.
Just when Lu Jing wanted to take off her wedding dress, Yinglian hurriedly pushed him away and said, "Wait a minute!" ”
Lu Jing nodded, let go of Yinglian, only to see Yinglian turn around and take out a pot of wine and two golden cups, and after filling each of them, she handed Lu Jing a glass.
Lu Jing took it and drank a glass of wine with Yinglian.
After Yinglian put down the wine glass, she said with satisfaction: "Yinglian's wish has been fulfilled, even if she dies, she will have no complaints." ”
Lu Jing hurriedly blocked her red lips and said: "Don't say stupid things, the days will be long in the future, we will have children in the future, we will watch them grow up, and we will grow old together." ”
Ying Lian listened to these beautiful days, couldn't help but smile and nodded, and couldn't help chanting:
What year is it tonight, and the dream of the moon is also fulfilled.
Wear flowers and dance butterflies, play in the water and perch on mandarin ducks.
I still remember the first time I met you, and my heart has been held since then.
May the clouds and rain dream, morning and dusk and Lang Lian.
After finishing speaking, he took the initiative to hug Lu Jing and said, "Yinglian serves Ye Kuanyi. ”
The brocade clothes flew down, and the two entered the brocade tent, hugged each other tightly, snuggled each other with pink cheeks, and relied on each other's lips and teeth, making the word Lu.
As the so-called old man is a bride, he is familiar with the road.
Just like the swallow in front of the hall, and then look at the old home.
The dream period on Wushan is good, the clouds are covered with rain, and the dew is drunk and the sun is drunk.
Or the arm is up, or the shoulder is on the shelf, or the butterfly wears a delicate flower.
The love is afraid that the Spring Festival will be short, so he only cares about indulging in wanton playing.
It is like a fish encountering water, a butterfly falling in love with a flower, fluttering in the clouds and falling off a cliff.
