Chapter 401: Baoyu hits a wall
Approaching the Spring Festival, the noisy sound in Jiafu came from afar in the night. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The mandarin duck stood by the window of the residence, looking through the eaves of the porch, and then over the gardens and strange stones in the courtyard, looking into the dark and gloomy distance.
She had a letter from home in her hand. This was given to her by Qingwen when she sent the gift that the third master brought back to the house in the afternoon.
She is the son of a family in Jiafu, and her parents are looking at houses in Nanjing. Brother Jin Wenxiang is now a comprador in the old lady's house, and his sister-in-law is the head of the old lady's house. She has today, all of them are the grace of the old lady, and the faith is respectful. When a whole family has a good job, what is there not to be satisfied with?
But when she saw the letter, her father and mother said that she was not in good health, but she couldn't go back to Jinling to take a look, how could she not have a little sentimentality in her heart? In the end, it was the one who gave birth to her and raised her.
The mandarin duck held a handkerchief and gently wiped his slightly red and swollen eyes.
She was about eighteen to nine years old, wearing a green satin vest and a white crepe sweat scarf, tall and slender, with a few freckles on her goose egg pretty face with tears on her face, and a pretty demeanor.
The night was getting darker. Winter nights are cold. Next door came the sound of Jade getting up at night and talking to Pearl. The mandarin duck sighed faintly, restrained the emotions in his heart, turned to the corner closet, and put away the family letter. In my heart, I was slightly grateful to the third master who came back with the letter.
It's hard for the third master to think about her.
She knew that if it weren't for the fact that she was the person next to the old lady, the third master was afraid that he would not help her bring this family letter. How many of the maids in the house are in Jinling? But not all people are like that. She still receives the love of the third master.
Actually, she has a good relationship with the third master now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have quietly helped him say a word this morning. She admires and respects the third master very much in her heart.
The mandarin duck thought about it carefully, undressed and went to bed to rest.
…
…
When the mandarin duck couldn't sleep because of the family letter, the distance was not far, and the attacker who slept in the warm pavilion was also unable to sleep at Daiyu's place in the courtyard of Jia's mother's upper room.
Her reason was not because of family letters. Tonight, the third master sent a letter back from the Self-Defense Mansion and called her to Mochizuki Curie.
It's about her future, her future. How can she sleep peacefully?
She is now a maid in Miss Lin's house.
…
…
The sky was bright, and the eldest girl in Baoyu's room, Qianxue, came in from outside with cold air. It wasn't her who kept vigil last night. She lives in the wing house next door.
Seeing that Baoyu was no longer there in the bedroom, Qian Xue asked the charming person who was keeping vigil in surprise, "Second Master Bao is going out?" ”
Meiren is a big girl with a somewhat plump figure, who is bending over to make the bed and fold the quilt on the side of the bed, with a helpless face, and said, "Isn't it?" I got up early in the morning and went to Miss Lin's house. I came back last night and I was still talking. He presented the wagtail incense skewers given by King Beijing to Miss Lin as if he were offering a treasure. Miss Lin threw it but didn't take it, and said, 'What a stinky man took it!' I don't want him. ’”
Qian Xue couldn't help laughing and said, "This is like Miss Lin's temper." The second master and Miss Lin grew up together, so it's strange when they don't quarrel. ”
The flattering person is also a smile. Her temperament is not like an attacker, and she doesn't advise Baoyu to study, love red less, gamble, and engage in some strange theories. Very submissive. I tried things with Baoyu for men and women, and I liked Baoyu very much.
She has the blessing of eight sedan chairs, but she doesn't have that reason. Bao Er Ye and Miss Lin's affairs are not something she should worry about.
…
…
The winter morning sun falls under the exquisite eaves. Baoyu rushed from his house to Lin Daiyu's house.
My heart was on fire. A year's longing, a moment of meeting yesterday, and made Sister Lin unhappy, how could he endure it? Came over early in the morning.
Because Sanchun was getting older, Jia's mother felt that the residence was crowded, so she moved Sanchun to live in the hugging hall behind the east cross courtyard, leaving Baoyu and Daiyu to live by her side. Baoyu and Daiyu's residence is just next door to the left and right.
Of course, according to the ancient architectural pattern, there are bedrooms, living rooms, side halls, warm pavilions, and wing rooms. It's not like a modern apartment building, but when you turn the door, you'll find Daiyu's residence.
As soon as Baoyu entered the living room, he saw the attacker coming out of the bedroom lightly, and said with a smile: "Good sister, Sister Lin hasn't gotten up yet?" ”
The attacker was originally the big girl in his house. It was he who sent Sister Lin to serve in Jinling, and now he is in Sister Lin's house.
The attacker was wearing a pink cotton jacket and a delicate purple-trimmed blue tooth pinching vest. At the age of seventeen, he has a slender figure, white and clean, and a good appearance. Seeing Baoyu ask, he stopped and replied, "Hmm." The second master is here? ”
Baoyu smiled and nodded, and was about to walk towards Daiyu's bedroom.
Jia Huan's instructions last night sounded in the attacker's mind, and he subconsciously stretched out his hand to stop Jia Baoyu and said, "Second master, slow down." The girl hasn't gotten up yet! ”
Baoyu took a step forward disappreciatively and said, "What's this?" Sister Lin and I grew up together. They also eat and live together. ”
The attacker shook his head, did not get out of the way, but blocked Baoyu at the door of Daiyu's bedroom, and said, "Second Master Bao, that was when I was a child, not to be serious." Now you and the girl are older. Be avoidant. ”
Baoyu's face changed slightly, and he looked at the attacker.
The attacker didn't look at Baoyu's eyes, lowered his head, and persuaded softly: "Second master, I shouldn't say it as a minion." It's just that the girls are kind, they also have a sense of etiquette, and there is no black family to make trouble every day! ”
Baoyu's face immediately turned red, and the joy of seeing Sister Lin was gone, and she pointed at the attacker, trembling with anger, and said angrily: "Okay, good." Hello very. Sister Lin came back yesterday, she was physically tired, so she had to rest. I'm not going to fight with you now. I'll come back in the afternoon and ask my sister if this is what you mean or what she means. ”
After speaking, he angrily shook his sleeves and left.
His lungs were about to explode.
A minion actually rubbed his nose and face to teach him, why? Or in the past, he treated them too leniently. She has the guts! Outrageous.
The attacker looked at the back of Baoyu leaving blankly, and suddenly felt a little sad in his heart, holding back his tears and biting his lip.
She has served Baoyu for several years. This affection, but what is this in Baoyu's heart? How much does it take? She was just trying to persuade him not to go into Miss Lin's bedroom while she was sleeping, what's wrong with that? Shouldn't it?
She didn't simply listen to the words of the third master, but agreed with this point of view: In the end, there is a difference between men and women.
Xue Yan and Mo'er came in from the small hall on the side, holding a kettle and towels in their hands, ready to be sent in for Daiyu to prepare. The two of them had just seen Baoyu clash with the attacker, and they didn't come out in the small hall.
Snow Goose stuck out her tongue and walked to Daiyu's bedroom with a kettle and a towel. Tsk, Sister Raider really dares to say it! How favored Bao Er Ye is in the house, although she is a maid brought by Daiyu from Yangzhou, she knows it well.
Mo'er is Aunt Pei's maid, and now she is following Daiyu, but she scolds softly at Baoyu's back: "Phew, this Baoyu is really shameless!" They are all thirteen years old, and my girl is asleep, and he still wants to jump into the girl's bedroom. ”
…
…
In the morning, Daiyu got up and packed up her things in the house. The day after she returned to Jiafu, she was still sorting out her books. was busy cleaning the bedroom, installing utensils, and called Zijuan, Raider and others, and distributed some paper and pens and other things to Baochai, Jia Huan, Yingchun, Baoyu and others.
In the afternoon, the sun is quiet. Daiyu came back from Jia's mother. happened to be absent, Zijuan quietly told Daiyu about the attacker stopping Baoyu out of the door in the morning, and Mo'er scolded Baoyu.
In fact, Baoyu is good to the girl, and she understands the girl's thoughts. But she is more inclined to the third master. I didn't do anything wrong with the attack. If she wants to, she will stop it.
Zijuan chuckled and said, "Girl, I really didn't see it, I really dared to stop Second Master Bao." ”
Daiyu was placing books in the bookcase, frowning. Baoyu's actions made her unhappy. When Yongzhi was in Jiangnan in the eleventh year, Brother Huan reminded her. She introspected herself at the time: although she said that she was open up with Baoyu, there was nothing rude about her contact with Baoyu.
Daiyu whispered, "I know." You turn around and talk to the attacker. ”
Zijuan pursed her lips and smiled, and agreed.
When the master and servant were talking, there were footsteps outside, and the voices of the maids greeting, "Second Master Bao!" ”
"Oh..."Daiyu stroked her forehead in annoyance, and a wisp of green silk slipped down. I didn't think it before, but now she really thinks that Baoyu is just a chatter and very noisy.
Zijuan couldn't help but laugh coquettishly, got up, and prepared to pour tea.
She understands the girl's troubles. Bao Erye laughed with him, said soft words, and spoke softly, how could he speak ill of each other? I don't know how many times Bao Er Ye will touch the wall, so he won't come so attentively?
…
…
Baoyu changed his clothes compared to the morning, wearing a beautiful white gown on the outside, embroidered with patterns, wearing him to look handsome, and wearing a jade crown, very cool and handsome young man. After entering the house, greet Daiyu with a smile and sit down to talk.
As if, the morning unhappiness did not happen.
Zijuan served tea and listened to Baoyu and Daiyu chatting on the side.
Daiyu was sorting out the books, Baoyu was flipping through the books on the side, talking about it by the way, commenting a few words, wanting to make Daiyu laugh as before, and said for a while, but it didn't work, Sister Lin just smiled lightly, and didn't mean to be close in the past, she was a little anxious in her heart, showing a warm man-like smile, and said: "Sister, you haven't seen the provincial villa built at home, have you?" If I go back to the old lady and make an appointment with Sister Bao, the second sister, the third sister, and the fourth sister, we will go in first to play for a day and enjoy the beautiful scenery. ”
Daiyu was dressed in a cyan gown, with a graceful and charming temperament, a girl like a flower and jade, put a volume of "Li Taibai's Poems" in her hand into the bookshelf on the left hand side, and said uninterestedly: "What garden, aren't they all like that?" ”
Baoyu smiled, said his true purpose, and said: "Good sister, that day the lord wanted to test my talent, and took me to swim for a long time, and now the plaques are there, I know that my sister is talented, please help me straighten the axe." ”
Daiyu looked at Baoyu amusedly. Since she came back from Jinling, for more than a year, she is no longer a girl who doesn't know anything and is raised in the boudoir. Vision and insight are not the same. Baoyu's mind, what does she not understand?
It's showing off his talents!
Daiyu sat by the bookshelf and whispered, "Zijuan, you help me bring paper and pen." After Zijuan took it, he took a pen and wrote a poem on the paper, handed it to Baoyu, and said in a clear voice: "How is it better than this poem?" ”
Baoyu took it and took a look, and the first sentence of the opening sentence on it was: "If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad screen." Immediately, his eyes straightened. Half loud speechless.
Daiyu glanced at Baoyu, continued to sort out her books, and whispered, "This is written by Brother Huan." ”
Baoyu's gaze moved away from the paper and landed on Daiyu's moon-like face, her side face was so beautiful, but something in his heart seemed to hammer hard.
is so stiff, as if the thunder has been struck, and most of the three souls and six spirits have gone. And then, tears flowed.
Sister Lin is called "Brother Huan".
