Chapter 83: Miaoyu

In the evening, Daiyu went over, and heard Xifeng saying through a curtain, "That day, the night when Rong'er and his daughter-in-law were gone, she came to give me a dream, saying that there was a very happy event in the near future, it was really a fire cooking oil, flowers and brocade, I have been thinking in my heart, what is the matter, it should be here, there is really nothing better than this." ”

Daiyu's footsteps couldn't help but hesitate for a while before entering. Aunt Xue and Baochai were all there, and Mrs. Wang had tears in her eyes, "Who would have thought that the royal family would have such a great grace?" It can be seen that the child is bitter and sweet, I heard that the two great saints in the palace are close to the family members of the pepper room into the palace, there is inevitably a national body system, the mother and daughter can not be comfortable, and the noble relatives of the pepper room are specially sent to the relatives, in addition to the grace of entering the palace on the 26th, where there is a house of Chongyu Courtyard, where you can be stationed in the guard, you may wish to invite the inner court Luan Yu into his private place, so that you can make a little bit of flesh and blood, and the nature of the family. Now, who is not enthusiastic about morality, Zhou Guiren's father has already started work at home, and Wu Guifei's father, Wu Tianyou's family, has also gone to explore places outside the city. ”

"So, our family is also going to welcome the eldest lady?" Xifeng clapped his hands and shouted, "If that's the case, I can also be regarded as going to see the world." It's a pity that I was born at a young age, if I was born two years early, I heard that when the emperor went to and south of the Yangtze River, the Zhen family alone took four drives, and the silver was spent like flowing seawater. That scene was more lively than a book. ”

Everyone laughed at what he said.

In the blink of an eye, the matter of the provincial relatives has been decided, and the whole house is busy. The meaning of both sides is to turn the courtyard behind the back, starting from the garden in Dongfuli, to the north, and measure it accurately, three and a half miles away, to build a provincial family courtyard, and take Jia Yuanchun home to save his relatives. Sure enough, the money in this house was spent like the flowing sea.

Daiyu has always rarely gone out, except for being by Jia's mother every morning and evening, she stays in her own house. On this day, the yard was covered, saying that Baoyu accompanied his father to visit the yard, because he was quick-witted, wrote a lot of good poems, got a few praises, and came back to Daiyu and told her, "I originally said to take a look, but when I got to the door, I was seen by the master, so I had to follow in to go in, there, I took a few good places, and tomorrow I will take my sister in to have a look." ”

The first time Daiyu saw Baoyu, he threw Yu in front of so many people, and he never got close to him much. Now, seeing that all his thoughts are on Baochai, and he no longer talks about jade, and he is willing to talk more about ordinary words, he asked, "What are the good places?" You tell me to listen first, and if I feel good, I will go and see it. ”

The provincial villa is used to welcome the concubine, and the concubine didn't come, except for Baoyu, who can go in? In these world affairs, Baoyu has never been transparent, Daiyu is too lazy to distinguish with him, just about to say, Baochai and others also came together, Daiyu hurriedly invited in, and said with a smile, "It's just right, Bao's second brother said that he won his uncle's award today, and he was about to tell me, let's listen to it together!" ”

Baochai couldn't help but smile and said, "I just came here when I heard about it, I just went to the old lady's side, saying that I came to Sister Lin's place, so I came!" ”

Daiyu ordered refreshments, six people sat around the table, and lightly brought a set of glazed bowls of various colors with a tea tray, which were colorful, and everyone was very novel, Daiyu said, "This is when I came, I passed by Jingdezhen, and when I was over there, I met and bought it, and one set was seven, which happened to be the number of rainbows." ”

It was a pot of maple dew tea, Baoyu tasted it, and said in surprise, "Oh, Sister Lin, I often say that maple dew tea is drunk after three or four colors, how did you make it?" This smell is different from what I usually drink, and it's weird and delicious. ”

"You always say that you are a tea drinker, why do you still ask about me? Speaking of which, I'm not afraid of your jokes, I've always only been able to drink and eat, and I don't have the ability to do it, if you want to learn, just ask my maids, I don't have the ability to teach you. ”

Tanchun said, "Second brother, what are you learning to make tea now?" Don't you know that this tea is made to see the tea, and the second is the water, that is, the tea is the same, if the water is different, isn't it also a different taste? ”

Baochai had already taken a sip, tasted the product, and said, "I tasted it, and the tea is no different from the water." Come to think of it, the minds of tea makers are different. Speaking of tea, let me introduce you to a tea master. ”

"Who is it?" Baoyu and Tanchun spoke in unison.

Daiyu has guessed who it is, so she smiled with the tea bowl and said nothing, she only uses a jade bowl on weekdays, snow white as jade dotted with a trace of emerald green, reflecting her face of deceiving frost and snow, so that people can take a look, do not drink a sip of tea, are drunk.

"It's a guy named Miaoyu, I heard that she was a young lady from the Gusu eunuch's family, she was sick since she was a child, and she bought a lot of stand-ins that were useless, and in the end this girl personally entered the empty door, so she was only eighteen years old this year. In this interview, she hired a little nun and a little Daogu, and it happened that her master passed away, so she left a message, telling her that she didn't have to go back to the south, but only stayed here, and her aunt made a special trip to give her a post and give her a Lucui Nunnery to live in. ”

Tanchun and the others couldn't help but be fascinated, but now they can't go in. Rarely, he asked Baoyu to tell all the scenes in the courtyard, "My favorite is Yihong Kuailu, Feng Laiyi, and Zhi Qingfang." Another day, I told the old lady that we should go shopping inside? ”

Daiyu held the tea bowl noncommittal, and Baochai smiled, "Brother Bao, although as soon as you say it, the old lady will definitely allow it, you don't have to say it now, Hengzhi Niangniang is coming, and when she comes, it will not be too late for us to go shopping." ”

On the eighth day of the first month, news came out of the palace that the concubine would come to the province on the fifteenth. On that day, they only came for a trip, and after feasting, listening to plays, and talking to each other, they went. It's only a few hours before and after, but it's a pity that I don't know how much this provincial villa has spent, not to mention anything else, this Rongguo Mansion is only afraid that it has been seriously injured.

Daiyu was crooked on the bed, although she didn't do anything, she was still tired. I also regret that I used a lot of effort before, always thinking about changing something, not so that Rongguofu will be as said in the book "Dream of Red Mansions", and one day in the future will be poor, and finally end up with a tree falling apart.

Li Mi was helping her dredge her body, rubbing the balm in the palm of her hand, waiting for the heat to dizzy, smearing it on her body, and said in a low voice, "In the past, I was a slave in the palace, and I have never heard of a lady who wanted to make her mother's family poor in order to go home to save her relatives, and now she has spent an unknown amount of silver." What do you say that the Zhen family took four drives, it was all wool out of the sheep, and the emperor's own silver was spent on the emperor, who would not be able to make a loss-making deal? ”

"It's just a false show!" Daiyu closed her eyes and sighed.
