Chapter 238: Implicit Edge
"The second sister-in-law stays, and I'll go to the eldest master to talk about it."
Li Weijian left Wang Xifeng out of the Yimen Gate, leaving Wang Xifeng alone frowning and thinking in place. In front of him, Ping'er gave Li Weijian a gift out of the Neiyi Gate, and when he came back, he saw that Wang Xifeng was still in a trance, and couldn't help but say: "What did the fourth master of Jian just say, which made grandma lose her soul?" β
Wang Xifeng came back to his senses, suddenly thought about it, sighed and said: "It's the stock pushed by You Lao'an the day before yesterday." β
"Stocks?"
Brother Jian said that Shanxi is far away, and the coal produced can only be sold domestically, and it is afraid that it will not be able to cover the freight when it is transported to Beijing. The shares of the Shanxi coal mine are only afraid that they will not be appropriate. After a pause, he said, "Huh? Did my ex-aunt buy three thousand taels? It's really not good to talk to Miss Bao when you turn around, so get rid of it while it hasn't been pierced, so as not to smash it in your hand and become a piece of waste paper in the future. β
Ping'er didn't know what Wang Xifeng was thinking, so she was startled and said: "No wonder You Lao'an people work so hard, I'm just afraid that if I sell my shares, people will share the profits." β
"Isn't that it?"
At that moment, Ping'er pushed the wheelchair and went to Mrs. Wang's courtyard.

The back building of Rongqing Hall.
Wei Kanyu accompanied him all the way, and when he saw Daiyu and Xiangling going upstairs, he said: "I'm a little tired now, the girl will teach Xiangling to compose poetry, and I will come to find the girl again at the dinner." β
"Auntie, go and rest." Daiyu sent Zijuan to wait for Wei Kanyu to take a rest, and then she and Xiangling glanced at each other, and went upstairs with a smile to each other.
At this time, it was the first month of the year, and Su Hexiang was burning in the smoke cage, Xiangling smelled it, and blurted out and asked: "The fourth master still asked me to ask, is the girl okay to rest recently?" β
Daiyu sat down and said with a smile: "It's a lot stronger than usual, and you can sleep until dawn for three or two days." β
Xue Yan brought tea, carried the teapot and said angrily: "The girl just has a lot of thoughts, and sometimes when she dreams of the master at night, she will wake up crying." Suddenly, he smiled: "Sometimesβ"
"You're too talkative, I'm thirsty, pour tea."
What happens sometimes? Don't you know how to chant the name of the fourth master?
Xiangling smiled, sat opposite Daiyu, and didn't reveal it, but just buried her head in opening the baggage, in addition to the poetry book, there was another flat box, she put it on the table first, and said: "Xinghetang's ginseng Yang Rong pill, the fourth master was afraid that the girl would be broken for a while, so he sent more." β
There are thirty pills in the inside, which is considered a month's supply, Daiyu ironed it in her heart, but said on her lips: "This pill is what the old lady and the second sister-in-law have thought about, and it has never been broken." β
"The girl will have it, just in case." Laughing and chanting, Xiangling pulled out the paper again. Daiyu is a poem made by Li Weijian, but when he glanced at it, it was a recipe.
Xiangling said: "The previous recipes, I'm afraid that the girl is tired of eating them, the fourth master thought about it, and prepared more than 30 things." The girl eats it on skewers, and she changes her taste every day. β
Daiyu smiled and said, "The old lady said yesterday that I can eat more than usual, won't I become a pig if I continue like this?" β
Xue Yan poured tea and said: "The best Bi Terrier Rice Girl only eats one bowl, and Zijuan and I can eat two bowls, where is more?" Next time, Bao Er Ye will joke again, see if I don't murder him! β
Daiyu smiled and said, "You, that is, talk about it." Second Brother Bao is the top of Rongguo Mansion, who dares to murder him? β
Xue Yan suddenly smiled strangely and said: "Don't say that no one dares to murder Second Master Bao, today I heard the charming people in Second Master Bao's room say, now that people are attacking people to the east, Second Master Bao will never dare to go west." If you don't believe the girl, go and see, the second master is the most impatient to read, and now he can pretend to read for half a day. β
Daiyu frowned slightly when she heard this, and the attacker beside Baoyu was quite scheming, and she was extremely unhappy. Thinking about it again, the left and right are the business of others, so what does it have to do with her?
But I didn't know that I was going home, because the Hua family was marrying for him, and I quarreled with the family. After coming back, he was more and more worried about the location of the aunt, so he tested Baoyu's heart a little bit to find out where it was soft. After figuring out Baoyu's temperament, he took the opportunity to let Baoyu do three things.
One is not to die or live and talk nonsense, the second is to always pretend to read some books, and the third is to no longer allow Baoyu to eat the rouge on the lips of the maid.
Baoyu should not do anything, for fear of attacking people and abandoning him. At first, I could pretend for a day or two, but after two days, I became impatient. Although I don't talk nonsense anymore, I don't eat rouge anymore, but I can't read a book.
The attacker was bent on letting Baoyu grow better, and in the future, he would invite credit in front of Mrs. Wang, so he had to sit firmly in the position of this aunt. Unexpectedly, when I met someone with such a temperament as Baoyu, I said that I should be good, but I turned my head and forgot about it. Now the attacker is angry, thinking about how to pick up the treasure jade again.
Daiyu didn't know the inside story, so she only smiled: "What the little sister-in-law said, Second Brother Bao listened to it." You say that, don't you want to be my sister-in-law too? β
Xue Yan suddenly became angry: "The girl is teasing me again!" β
Snow Goose pouted and retreated, and Daiyu and Xiangling covered their mouths and smiled. Then I saw Xiangling take out an object from the baggage, this road is a glass painting, but I saw that the painting seemed to move.
The snow geese on the side also peeked over, and saw that the object was like a mirror, with blue, white, and gold quicksand in the middle, and the edge of the continent was sealed with milk, and Xiangling turned over, and the quicksand slowly spread out into the appearance of a snowy plateau.
Xiangling smiled and said: "The fourth master has been busy in the military academy these days, and he made a small object secretly, and he was afraid that the girl would be bored, so he sent it to the girl to relieve her boredom." β
Daiyu was immediately overjoyed, flipped it with her own hands, saw the quicksand spread out into another painting, and said: "I play naughty with my sister every day, and I don't get bored when I read and play the piano in my spare time." You go back and tell the fourth brother Jian, I know that he is not idle every day, and he doesn't have to think about me much. β
Xiangling quipped: "That's it, let's keep the girl and the fourth master of the thrift." β
Daiyu's eyebrows and eyes were crooked, her heart was warm, and when she saw Xiangling's teasing face, she put on a straight face and pretended to be a master, and said, "Did you do the homework left for you last time?" If I'm lazy, I'm going to play the board. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
When Shen was approaching, Li Weijian and the eldest master came with a smile all the way, and several tables of family banquets were set up in Rongqing Hall.
Li Weijian is now in a different position, there are Jia Yu, Jia Zheng, and Jia Lian at the same table, although he always pays attention to Daiyu and Yingchun behind the screen, but he can't get a glimpse of the delicate face. In the evening, the banquet dispersed, and Li Weijian took Xiangling back to his home.
The carriage was moving along, and Xiangling kneaded her temples for Li Weijian, who had drunk wine, and said: "Fourth master, I just talked to Si Qi for a while, and Si Qi said that the old lady had paid twenty taels of silver to make a birthday with Miss Bao." β
Li Weijian smiled and pouted, Mother Jia is a pure and disgusting person. Not to mention Baoyu and Daiyu, it is the birth of Sanchun, they are all full of wine and drama, so why do they need a hundred taels of silver. When I arrived at Baochai, it became twenty taels, but it was just a call to Aunt Xue and Baochai, and the implication was that Baochai was all in order, and it was time to move out to find someone to marry, where could I still stay in the house?
"What else did she say?"
Xiangling said: "It is also said that the second master of Bao has been looking for more treasure girls recently, and I don't know who spread it, saying that the auspicious words on the gold collar of the second master of Bao correspond to the jade of the second master, and the mothers-in-law chew their tongues in private, and they all say that it is a good relationship between gold and jade." β
Li Weijian is happy, no wonder Jia's mother is disgusting, and she dares to be so affectionate. A few days later, Baochai celebrated his birthday, and it was another verbal and secret confrontation, and this way would be missed this time, but he was able to witness it with his own eyes because of Xiangyun. I can't remember the situation in the play for a long time, but this time I can learn from the past.
Li Weijian moved his head, leaned between the two groups of fireflies, provoked Xiangling Xiafei's cheeks, and said about Daiyu's situation, so he didn't say anything more.
After the next day, after breakfast in the morning, Aunt Xue came to Mrs. Wang to discuss countermeasures. Jia's mother's move is even clear in chess, how can the two sisters not know?
However, Jia's mother has a high seniority, and at this time, filial piety is greater than the sky, and the sisters have no way to do anything. It was wrong to run for the good fortune of Jin Yu, and seeing that Mrs. Wang nodded earlier, Aunt Xue really wanted to move out immediately.
As he was talking, suddenly the maid reported that Baochai was coming.
After a while, Baochai turned in and met Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue, and Aunt Xue said, "Didn't you say that you would come later?" Why has it been delayed for so long? β
Baochai sat quietly and thought: "I just bumped into Sister Ping'er and talked to me on the phone. β
Aunt Xue asked, "What are you talking about?" β
Sister Bao said: "It is said that it is the Shanxi coal mine stock pushed by You Lao'an, but I am afraid that it is a drum and a flower." In the end, whoever falls into the hands is afraid that it will be smashed in the hands. Persuaded my mother and I to get rid of it while it was still valuable. β
Aunt Xue was surprised: "How come? Yesterday your brother said that the stock had risen by another penny, and now it was one or two or four cents, and he was shouting to buy more quickly. β
Baochai said: "I was a little suspicious before, so I stopped my brother from buying more, but now I think about it, it's just a rat club." β
"Rats?" Mrs. Wang didn't know about such charlatans.
Sister Bao explained: "In the Song Dynasty, Bashu used iron money, and suddenly one day a Jiangnan businessman came to the city and posted a notice willing to exchange one copper coin for four iron coins. On that day, the merchants collected thousands of strings of iron money, and a few days later, they posted notices to raise the price to one copper coin for three iron coins.
This person exchanged like this, and the iron money in the market rose in response, and the usual copper money could be exchanged for five iron coins, but now it can only be exchanged for four times. In all this, the merchant pushed the iron money to the same level as the copper money, and quietly exchanged all the iron money he collected into copper money, and left with the money the next day, making a lot of money. Many of the people in the city were ruined because of this. Such acts are the rat clubs. β
Hearing this, Aunt Xue and Mrs. Wang were suddenly surprised. Mrs. Wang's face was not obvious, but Aunt Xue was extremely proud. This is her Baochai, who can compare to ordinary women?
But I didn't know that Mrs. Wang secretly slandered her, the Xue family is really a family of businessmen, and this kind of businessman is easy to come by, so it can be seen that he is not a good candidate to be a wife. Let's look back, there will be an old lady blocking it, so you might as well be vain and wronged. When Baoyu really becomes the uncle of the country in the future, then this family affair will never be able to be accepted.
"I see."
Mrs. Wang said casually, and suddenly saw Baochai looking at the general, and said: "If this rat wants to lead people to be fooled, he will always give some sweetness to the people in front of him." Mom might as well stay for a while, and it's not too late to get rid of it when the stock rises to one, two, three, or four dollars. β
Mrs. Wang wondered in her heart, she didn't know that Baochai was clearly saying this to Aunt Xue, why she looked at herself when she said it.
After a long time, Aunt Xue and Baochai said goodbye and left, and Mrs. Wang sat in the room. It just so happened that the maid made fun of the big house again, saying that the eldest man refused to send the stolen income to the public middle school, and Mrs. Wang's heart suddenly moved!
The big man is greedy and despicable, and he owed Li Weijian a lot of money because of the shares, this time this mouse will make huge profits, with the ability of the big man, how can he not be fooled? The old man had a stroke before, and now half of his face is still wooden, if he has another stroke...... If you can't say it, you can't save it!
The eldest girl Yuan Chun is just an ordinary concubine now, and there is a Wu Guifei on top of her, and it is a bit extravagant to expect Baoyu to be the uncle of the country. It's best to plan for the title of the family first.
After thinking about it for a while, he called Zhou Rui's family at the next morning, got rid of the idle people, and gave instructions in private. At night, the eldest lord Jia Yu went to find his concubine to play naughty, and Wang Shanbao's family came to talk to Mrs. Xing.
After a little gossip and digesting the Xue family, Wang Shanbao's family said: "Mrs. doesn't know, the Xue family has gone out of shit luck." β
"How?" Mrs. Xing asked.
Wang Shanbao's family said: "That day, You Lao'an people came to push Lao Shizi's shares, and they only started with one or two points, and it was only a few days, blind!" Yesterday it went up to one or two or four points. Guess what the price is this morning? β
"What's the price?"
"It's up to one or two dollars!"
Mrs. Xing was immediately annoyed, it had only been a few days, and she had gained a hundred percent of the benefits for nothing! However, when You Lao'an came to the house before, Mrs. Xing only said that she was a broken household, and she was too lazy to take care of it, so she deduced that she was sick and avoided it. I knew this was the case, and I had to buy some shares after selling the dowry.
Because Mrs. Xing was interested, she first discussed with Jia Yu the next day. The eldest lord Jia Yu was moved, and sent someone to listen again, but when he heard that the silver had risen by two cents today, where could he still sit still? Hurriedly urged Mrs. Xing to send her mother-in-law to find You Lao'an, treat her, and scraped together more than 7,000 taels of silver to buy all the shares of the Shanxi coal mine.
At present, the couple is waiting for the stock to rise, but the Rongguo Mansion is gloomy. In the past two days, the imperial historians have written to impeach the third-class general Jia Zhen, or participated in his personal fraud, selling official positions, or participating in his encroachment on acres of land and robbing people's daughters, or participating in his extortion and greed.
Dongfu has been surrounded for more than half a month, and Fanzi has never withdrawn, coupled with impeachment after impeachment, at this time, he is as stupid as Jia Yu also knows that Dongfu is only afraid that it will not be easy.
Jia's mother called Jia Yu and Jia Zheng again, and the two of them wrote letters to relatives and friends for help, but they didn't mention it.
In the blink of an eye, on the 21st, a small home-style stage was set up in the inner courtyard of Jia's mother, and a new class of small dramas was ordered, both Kun and Yi. There were a few family banquets lined up in Rongqing Hall, and there were no outsiders, only Aunt Xue, Shi Xiangyun, Baochai, and Li Weijian were guests, and the rest were their own people.
Before the end of the day, Li Weijian arrived, and Jia Lian accompanied him inside. Li Weijian congratulated Sister Bao on her birthday with a smile, and sent a congratulatory gift, and then sat down with Jia Lian across the screen.
At this time, there were four seats in Rongqing Hall, and the remaining three seats were all female dependents, but Li Weijian and Jia Lian opened one seat.
It was still early at this time, and the banquet had not yet started, so Jia's mother asked Baochai to play first.
Baochai pushed, Jia Mu must Baochai to come. At this time, I listened to Aunt Xue on the side and said, "Since the old lady asked you to order, let's order it." β
Li Weijian heard it in his ears, and secretly thought, Aunt Xue is mentioning some Baochai, and she wants to focus on Mother Jia's thoughts.
couldn't, so I had to order a fold of "Journey to the West". Mother Jia likes it and lets Aunt Xue do it. Aunt Xue saw that Baochai had ordered, and refused to order it again, so Mother Jia ordered Sister Feng to order. Although Sister Feng was punished and Mrs. Wang was in front, she didn't dare to disobey her because of Jia's mother's order, and she knew that Jia's mother liked to be lively, and she liked to laugh and laugh, so she ordered "Liu Erdangyi".
Hearing that Wang Xifeng ordered "Liu Erdangyi", Li Weijian suddenly secretly endured his handsomeness.
"Liu Er's Clothes" plays Pei Du who is about to go to Beijing to catch the exam, and the travel expenses are insufficient, so he sends the old servant Pei Wang to Liu Er's pawnshop and pawns clothes. Liu Er is rich and unkind, because his brother-in-law Pei Du came to be a golden hairpin before, and the interest has not yet been settled, Liu Er deducts the clothes and deducts it as interest. Liu Er pretended to be stupid, gags, and his six relatives didn't recognize him, buttoned off his clothes, and prevaricated Pei Wang.
The housekeeper's daughter-in-law, Feng Lazi, ordered "Liu Erdangyi", which was simply scolding the Xue family in person. The Xue family has a pawnshop, and the old man Jia Zheng is Aunt Xue's brother-in-law, and the relationship with Pei Du and Liu Er is exactly the same. Sister Feng made Liu Er embarrassed on stage, I don't know what Aunt Xue and Xue Baochai feel like in their hearts!
"Okay, good, this one is good!" Jia Mu really liked it more, and then ordered Daiyu to order.
Daiyu asked Aunt Xue, Mrs. Wang, etc. Jia Mu said: "Today, I took you to have fun, let's just take care of ours, don't pay attention to them." I sang and set up wine, but I can't do it for them? They listen and eat for nothing here, it's already cheap, let them order it! β
As he spoke, everyone laughed. Li Weijian couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed with Jia Lian. Tsk, the old lady didn't leave any face for Aunt Xue this time, isn't it the Xue family that 'eats for nothing and listens'? That's almost a face-to-face call.
There was a slight gap in the screen, and although I couldn't see Aunt Xue and Baochai, I could see Mrs. Wang.
Li Weijian peeked at it, and sure enough, he saw that although Mrs. Wang was smiling on her face, the Buddha beads in her hands were no longer twisted, and her thumb nails were almost caught in the beads!
I'm afraid that Mrs. Wang will be angry in her heart, but the old lady's position is too high, so she can only smile and pretend not to know.
After that, Dai Yufang clicked out. Then Baoyu, Shi Xiangyun, Ying, Tan, Xi, Li Kun, etc., all had their own points and took on the role.
After a fold and singing, the time passed in a blink of an eye, and the banquet was ready.
Jia Mu ordered Baochai again. Baochai ordered a play "Lu Zhishen is drunk and makes trouble on Wutai Mountain".
Baoyu said: "I have to order these scenes." β
Baochai said: "You have listened to the drama in the past few years, where do you know the benefits of this play, the pomp is good, and the rhetoric is even better." β
Baoyu said: "I've never been afraid of these bustles. β
Baochai smiled: "If you want to talk about this lively, you still don't know the drama." Come here, let me tell you, this play is a set of northern "Dotted Lips", sonorous and frustrating, and the rhythm is needless to say that it is good; Only one of the words "Parasitic Grass" is filled in wonderfully, how do you know? β
Seeing that what Baoyu said so well, she approached and said, "Good sister, read it to me!" β
Baochai read: Tears of heroes, leaving the priest's house. Xie mercy, shaved under the lotus platform. There is no way, and they are separated in the blink of an eye. Red stripes, come and go without worry. Where to ask, the smoke and rain are rolled in a single line? Once I am in office, the mangshoe's bowl will be broken with fate!
Li Weijian at the next table said in his heart, here come, Sister Bao really fought back!
This drama literally means that Lu Zhishen took refuge in Wutai Mountain after killing Zheng Tu, the "town of Guanxi" - similar to the Xue family - because he did not abide by the rules of Buddhism, and was driven out of the temple gate.
Sister Bao seemed to be reciting words to Baoyu, but in fact, she was telling Mother Jia. Secretly, the wit is probably that I, Xue Baochai, am not the person who has no skin and no face, it is a big deal to leave your Jia Mansion, "I will break the bowl and follow the fate", I don't necessarily have to hang myself on the tree of your Jia family.
Li Weijian couldn't help but secretly think in his heart, although Sister Bao fought back, she couldn't go, but she wanted Aunt Xue to call the shots. During this banquet, Aunt Xue only said ordinary words, as if she didn't hear Jia's mother secretly witty, and it seemed that she didn't have the slightest intention of leaving.
He felt that this house fight was really interesting, and he couldn't help but have a few more drinks with Jia Lian.
When the evening was gone, the screen was removed, and Jia Mu and Li Weijian said a few words, because they loved the one who was a little Dan and a clown, so they ordered someone to bring it in, and when they looked closely, they became more and more pitiful.
Because of the age, the little dan was only eleven years old, and the clown was only nine years old, and everyone sighed.
Jia Mu asked him to bring him two more flesh and fruits, and rewarded him with two more bunches.
Sister Feng smiled: "This child is dressed up like a person, you can't see it anymore." β
Baochai also knew in his heart, so he only smiled and refused to say.
Baoyu also guessed, but didn't dare to say.
Shi Xiangyun then smiled: "It's like Sister Lin's appearance." β
Baoyu listened, and hurriedly glanced at Xiangyun and made a look. But when everyone heard this, they looked at it carefully, and they all laughed, and said that it was really good.
Li Weijian watched carefully from the side, that Xiao Dan was Ling Guan, and he really looked like Daiyu. Comparing Daiyu with a servant, but it is extremely impolite, Sister Feng has always been thoughtful, how could she say such words? Peeking at it, Daiyu was really unhappy.
After thinking about it for a while, Li Weijian looked at the clown again, and suddenly realized in his heart. Where does this mean that Daiyu is like a play, it is clearly Mother Jia who said her words of support for the Mushi Alliance through Sister Feng'er's mouth!
Ling Guan is like Daiyu, and he doesn't mention it; Baoyu is deviant, isn't she a clown in the eyes of everyone?
swept everyone's looks, and the second sister hid her face and smiled in the spring, as if she didn't notice anything; Xichun and Xiangyun are too young, and they don't know the inside story.
Looking at Baochai again, although Sister Bao smiled, she smiled extremely reluctantly.
Sister Feng'er is looking for Jia's mother: The old lady likes this couple, you Xue Baochai should marry someone!
Daiyu was annoyed and couldn't help but glance at Li Weijian. But seeing Li Weijian smiling, Daiyu suddenly felt aggrieved, and saw Li Weijian shaking his head slightly, and then glanced at Xiangling who was accompanying him.
Although Daiyu never understood Sister Feng'er's meaning, she also knew that the fourth brother must have seen something. Immediately suppressed the annoyance in his heart, but did not make a sound. secretly thought in his heart, thinking that the fourth brother would definitely send Xiangling to talk to him.
At the end of the song, everyone dispersed, and when he was leaving, Li Weijian secretly glanced at Daiyu again, and then Shi Shiran led Xiangling away.
At night, Daiyu hadn't done anything yet, but Xiangyun was annoyed first.
Although Xiangyun didn't have any thoughts about Baoyu in his heart, he also treated him as a stubborn and good brother. Whenever Sister Lin is mentioned, this loving brother will always come back. Fang Cai was just joking at the banquet, and he was glared at by Baoyu fiercely!
Before Sister Lin came, Xiangyun had been living in Jia's mother's room, and she was no worse than Daiyu in terms of estrangement, why did Baoyu always favor Daiyu?
This time it's like this again, how can Xiangyun not be annoyed?
Because he came back, he picked up his bags and left early in the morning with the maid.
When Baoyu heard this, she hurriedly came to persuade her, only saying that she was afraid that Daiyu would be too careful.
It's okay not to listen to this, but Xiangyun was even more annoyed when he heard it, and wrestled his hand and said, "Don't look at me with your rhetoric." I'm not as good as your sister Lin, others talk about her and make fun of her, but I only say it. I am not worthy to speak of her. She is the master of the young lady, I am a slave girl, I offended her, I can't help it! β
Baoyu said anxiously: "I'm for you, but I'm not here." I will have an outer heart, and I will immediately turn to ashes, and make all people trample against me! β
Xiangyun said: "In the month of the Great New Year, don't talk nonsense. These irrelevant swears, nonsense, and crooked words are spoken to those who are petty, who are annoyed by their actions, and who will rule over you! Don't tell me to smack you. As he spoke, he went to Jia Muli and lay down angrily.
Baoyu was bored, and she was going to look for Daiyu again. It's just that at this time, Daiyu has already moved to the back building, and Baoyu thinks of the female official Wei Kanyu who can't be offended, so she has to stop and sigh.
After a while, Xiangling really came to learn poetry again.
The people of Rongguo Mansion have long been familiar with him, and they have never checked it, so they let Xiangling go to find Daiyu by herself.
When she arrived in the back building, Xiangling looked at Daiyu's expression, and saw that there was tiredness on her face, so she said: "The fourth master was afraid that the girl would be too careful, so he sent me here early in the morning." β
Daiyu pouted and remained silent.
Xiangling leaned over, took out a piece of paper from her sleeve cage and handed it over, and said, "The fourth master said, the girl will know if she has seen it." This paper can't be kept, and the girl remembers to burn it after reading it carefully. β
Daiyu responded in a muffled voice, and reached out to take the note. After carefully reading the paper, the frowning eyebrows first stretched, and then frowned.
I read it again, put down the paper and said, "The second sister-in-law was thinking like this......"
It turned out that Sister Feng was adhering to her grandmother's thoughts, so she said such things, not intentionally comparing herself to a play. As for Xiangyun, who broke his words, he has always been unintentional, and Daiyu never cares about it.
Although this remark was not malicious, it made Daiyu's heart upset. When Lin Ruhai was dying, she told her and instructed her not to reveal her marriage to Li Weijian, otherwise she might suffer accidents. Because it was a personal person, even Jia's mother and Wang Xifeng were concealed.
Daiyu is worried that Jia's mother will put her and Baoyu together, how can she not break her marriage, and tactfully transfer the old lady to find another granddaughter-in-law?
Although Daiyu is smart, she can't find a proper way for a while.
Although Daiyu was still a general trouble, it was different from that time, so she couldn't figure it out for a while, so she put it down for the time being, and talked about poetry with Xiangling instead.
After a long time, Zijuan suddenly went upstairs and went back and forth: "The palace sent someone to send a lantern riddle, and ordered everyone to guess, the girl should go quickly." β
Daiyu hurriedly put down the scroll and explained a few words to Xiangling, and then got up and went to Rongqing Hall.
The lantern riddle is a seven-character quatrain, and there is nothing new about it, Daiyu guessed it after a little thought. At the moment, he wrote down the mystery with Baoyu, Baochai, Xiangyun, Sanchun, etc., and handed it over to the eunuchs. turned his head and called Jia Huan and Jia Lan again, and guessed the riddles together.
At night, the eunuch came to deliver again: "The former lady has guessed it, but the second lady and the third master have guessed not." The ladies also guessed, I don't know if it was or not. β
As he spoke, he took out what he had written. There are also those who guess, and there are those who can't, and they all talk nonsense and guess. The eunuch also gave the gift to the guessing person, each of whom had a palace-made poetry tube and a tea whisk, but Yingchun and Jia Huan did not get it. Yingchun was joking about trivial things and didn't mind, but Jia Huan felt bored. And I heard the eunuch say: "The third master said that this doesn't make sense, and the mother didn't guess, so she asked me to bring it back and ask what the third master is." β
Jia Huan's neck told the riddle, which made everyone laugh again.
That Baoyu approached several times, and Daiyu quietly avoided it every time she was looking for a spring or a spring to speak. Baoyu was stunned, but Daiyu secretly thought, it is better to stay away from it so respectfully, so as not to regenerate Baoyu's thoughts.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
Fengzao Palace.
Emperor Zhenghe still dealt with the music in the imperial study and never returned, so Wu Guifei led a group of concubines to guess the lantern riddles and play naughty.
After playing stubbornly, Concubine Li suddenly said: "Concubine Niangniang, the concubine thinks that the provincial villa is empty, and it is a pity to raise people to clean and take care of it every day." Why don't you send your sisters to live in the family temporarily, and then move them out in the future. β
Wu Guifei said with a smile: "The villa built by your family came to me again to ask for ideas." But it is also said that instead of being empty, it is better to send the sisters in the family to move in. After a pause, he said: "There are seven sisters in my family, and I'm afraid it's not enough to live in them." β
A female official said: "There seem to be a lot of sisters in Concubine Xiande's family? β
Wu Guifei looked at Yuan Chun when she heard this, and Yuan Chun smiled and said, "It's enough." The eldest sister-in-law is widowed, has three younger sisters and two cousins, and can still live. β
Wu Guifei smiled and bowed her head and said, "Concubine Jia will go back and let the sisters in the family live in." After saying this, I suddenly remembered that the female official Wei Kanyu entered the palace a year ago and replied, saying that the second master of Rongguo Mansion was rampant and loved to play naughty with his sister at home. It's not that Wei Kanyu is at fault, but I'm afraid that I will be rude to Miss Lin.
The sage once privately confessed to Concubine Wu Guifei, saying that the orphan daughter of the Lin family would not give a marriage will until she was removed, and she was married to Li Weijian, the uncle of the Lingling. Because she told Wu Guifei to take this matter to heart, she took care of the orphan daughter of the Lin family. If you are abrupt by the children of the Jia family, wouldn't it be against the holy will? In the coming day, Uncle Ling will make trouble, and it is impossible to say that Wu Guifei will have to be severely reprimanded by the saint.
Because it was Wu Guifei who groaned: "Concubine Jia, your brother born from jade...... Do you want to live in a garden? β
Yuan Chun hurriedly said: "Back to Niangniang, my younger brother is young, and he has grown a little recently, and the concubine wants to let his younger brother enter the garden to play naughty, and then move out of the house when the age is up." β
Wu Guifei sighed in her heart, secretly thinking that this was indeed the case. She didn't move on her face, and said with a smile: "Concubine Jia's move is ...... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. β
Yuanchun Nahan, asked: "What's wrong, please also ask the mother to make it clear." β
Wu Guifei said: "How did I hear that your brother likes to eat rouge on the maid's mouth the most, and he knew about the maid three or two years ago?" β
"Huh?" Jia Yuanchun was taken aback!
