Chapter 67: Advice
For a while, there was a fuss, and a word came from the front, saying that he knew that the girl was coming, and if he had seen the old lady, he would be free, and asked the girl to go over to see her, and after a long time, she missed her very much.
The old lady also said that she wanted the two grandmothers to bring her over, but Mrs. Xing hurriedly got up, "I'll take the girl over!" ”
The old lady instructed Xifeng, "Today, in the hall in front of you, set up two tables, leave your aunt and wife together, and everyone will be lively together!" Xifeng went to arrange it and didn't mention it.
Although it is a long house on Jia Yu's side, her eldest uncle does not live in the main house, but is separated from the garden of Rongguo Mansion, and the houses and courtyards are small and exquisite, and trees, mountains and rocks can be seen everywhere. After arriving at the main room, many concubines and maids dressed in colorful clothes greeted them, and Jia Yu had arrived first, Daiyu came to ask for peace, and got a few words of instruction from Jia Yu, "Live with the girls, don't see outside, don't treat this place as your uncle's house, just as your own home, if you don't have anything to play and eat, and tell your aunt, if you can't do it for a while, you can also ask someone to come to me!" ”
Daiyu thanked her, and Jia Yu also said that she wanted Mrs. Xing to invite Daiyu to Zhang Luo, and Mrs. Xing said busily, "The old lady said that she would set up two tables for the girl to catch the wind, and if you want to invite her, it will be a day in the future." ”
Daiyu hurriedly said, "Uncle love, Daiyu is grateful, the days will be long, the days of disturbing my aunt are unknown, and I hope that my uncle and aunt will not be annoyed in the future." ”
Because she still wants to go to Jia Zheng's side, Daiyu got up to say goodbye, Mrs. Xing had to send her out of the main room, after the Yi Gate, the mother-in-law had already set up the car, Daiyu sit, after passing the east and west through the hall, after the south hall, there were five main rooms in the Yi Gate, Jia Zheng was already waiting in the ear room next to the main room, and Mrs. Wang was accompanying her.
Daiyu went over, and Mrs. Wang wanted to pull her to sit on the kang, but Daiyu gave in, saluted, and still sat on half of the chair below. After Jia Zheng asked about the situation in Yangzhou, he lectured again, and Daiyu hurriedly got up to listen, "With the girls, or reading and learning words, or playing, you must be humble to each other, and if you are wronged for a while, you don't have to endure it, tell your aunt to listen, don't see outside, just treat this place as your own home." ”
Then he asked, "Did you come after entering the palace?" ”
"Yes!"
"Presumably the lady in the palace also has some admonition?"
"No, Niang Niang just went into the palace to thank her, and left a meal and came out, because I haven't seen you for many years, I only asked about some things in the south, I think I will come and go again, there will be a warning!"
After Jia Zheng nodded, Mrs. Wang was worried that the old lady would pass the food, so she led Daiyu out, and told her along the way, "You have also seen my evil cause, I am restless, I want to come out all the time, and there is no rule and standard, if he provokes you in the future, you have to look at your old lady's uncle and aunt, don't worry about him!" ”
Daiyu smiled, she used to watch "Dream of Red Mansions", probably because she was young, she didn't have much knowledge, she just felt that Baoyu in the book was a bit exaggerated, how could there be such a person in the world? Now, it can be regarded as a believe, if the rich and noble, if it is not good to give birth to and educate their children, they will probably really be like Baoyu Xue Pan, but in fact, there is no difference between "why not eat minced meat".
"Uncle and aunt are too worried, after I came, I naturally get along with my sisters every day, the second brother is a man, and he must also be walking in the outer courtyard, and there is not much interaction between our brothers and sisters, where can he provoke me?"
Mrs. Wang heard this, and couldn't speak, there happened to be a mother-in-law who said that the old lady was going to pass dinner, so she led her sister over, Mrs. Wang carried Daiyu out of the back room door, passed through the hall to the old lady's yard, crossed the north-south road, passed from Xifeng's house, and entered the hall, that is, in the front of the three halls, tables and chairs were already placed, and screens were used to block the wind before and after, and there were two tables because of the large number of people.
The old lady, Daiyu, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xichun, Baochai and Baoyu are one table, and Aunt Xue, Mrs. Xing, Mrs. Wang, Li Kun, Xifeng, etc. are another table. The two ladies of King Xing, as well as Li Kunxifeng, were supposed to serve in front of the old lady, but because the old lady was happy, she only asked them to sit down after they set the dishes, "Let our mothers eat a few of them raw, and you will eat them yourself!" ”
The old lady asked someone to drink some wine, Aunt Xue and others accompanied them to drink two sips, after the meal, rinsed their mouths, drank tea, and returned to the upper room to sit down, Mrs. Wang talked about the dispensing of medicine in the old lady's house, and asked Daiyu, "What medicine can the girl take?" ”
"I don't eat it, I only make some medicinal food every day in the morning and evening, it's enough."
The old lady said, "That's good, I'm in the small kitchen here, ask them to split a small stove alone, and if you want anything on weekdays, I'll go to your sister Feng." ”
After talking for a while, seeing that the old lady's interest was too high today, and now she was a little tired, Xifeng said that it was better to disperse today, the girl had already come, and the days would be long. Daiyu got up and invited Baochai, Sanchun sisters and two sisters-in-law of the same generation to her house, "Go to my house and sit down, I brought gifts to you, I should have asked the girls to send you to the house, but now they can't even touch the doorway, so you can get it yourself." ”
Baoyu also followed, "Did my sister prepare any gifts for me?" ”
"Naturally, you are indispensable, you wait first, and when I go back, I will ask for someone from the second sister-in-law of Lian, and then send it to your various rooms."
"No, I don't have anything else to do here, I should be close to the water and get the moon first, and I'll go with you to take a look."
Daiyu's maid has already put out the gifts one by one, and they are properly distributed, except for the two sisters-in-law's extra weight, the sisters and a few brothers are all equal, all of them are unique to the south, light and fun foreign products, dazzling to see.
Yingchun has always been honest, took his own thanks and left, Xichun said that there was still today's unfinished homework, and also went out with Yingchun. However, Tanchun has always been very rare, and discussed taking the silver to the people of Daiyu's family, "Next time I go over, if it's convenient, you must bring me a box of cages."
Daiyu responded and said to Baochai, "I know that Sister Bao's family is not lacking in these, which is really not respectful, but when I think of my sister going north in the past few years, the family does not go to the south much, so I brought these, and my sister does not dislike it." ”
"How can you dislike it? As the saying goes, thousands of miles to send goose feathers, the courtesy is light and affectionate, and your sister Bao is generous and generous every day, and it's too late to see you send these joys! Baoyu took one of his own people to look at, and turned over another wine order and asked Daiyu, "How do you play this?" ”
Daiyu didn't pay much attention to him, Li Kun stood for a while, and said to Daiyu, "Thank you for bringing this, it's not too early this day, and Lan Ge'er can't leave me, I'll go over first, and thank you later!" ”
