Lin Jue of the Red Chamber

Chapter 27 Small talk

Lin Jue was lying on the bed, but couldn't fall asleep. Her body was very tired, but her heart was extremely excited.

Finally arrived at Rongguo Mansion, Lin Jue sighed contentedly, and began to count the differences between what happened today and the original book.

First, in the Red Mansion, Daiyu entered the corner door of the Rongguo Mansion, but today she entered the side door. Both herself and Daiyu are juniors, so it is right to go through the side door.After all, if there is no major event, the main door will not be opened.I thought it would take some talking, but I didn't do anything, so I opened the side door.Only then did Lin Jue understand what Shi Ziwei said: As long as you are here for a day, it means that there are successors in the Lin family, and you are Miss Lin's backer, and no one will slow down her.

Second, today Baoyu not only did not say the famous phrase "I have met this sister", but also did not give Daiyu a word, and the throwing of jade did not happen.

Thirdly, Daiyu didn't live in a Bisha closet, but in Lixiangyuan, haha, it was unexpected to occupy Xue's house.According to the news from Guanqi, Xue's family will come to Beijing in about half a month, and I don't know where they will live.

Lin Jue rubbed against the quilt, buried her head in the quilt, and covered her evil eyes: Rongguo Mansion, you bullied my sister, and you still want to be okay?Just dream, let Xiaoye give you a ride!

At the same time, in Daiyu's room behind.Daiyu looked at the maidservants who came in and out, took out those decorations from the luggage one by one, wiped them clean and put them in the Duobao Pavilion, rubbed her sore forehead: "Mama, are you ready?"

Nanny Sheng handed over a glass of honey water, looked at Daiyu's slightly pale face, and said distressedly: "It's almost there, girl, let's go to sleep first, and clean up when you wake up."

Daiyu shook her head and frowned: "Nurse, I'm a little uneasy. I feel like my brother doesn't like this place very much."

Nanny Sheng gave Xueyan a wink, watched Xueyan make the bed and retreated with the maids respectfully, before answering Daiyu's question: "Girl, I shouldn't have said these things, no matter what Anyway, I am just a slave. But now that the master and Nanny Lin are not here, the slave has no choice but to tell you boldly, if you were not here, why would the uncle live here? How good is it to live in the Lin Mansion? He and the Rongguo Mansion are comparable It has nothing to do with it. Letting him live here has already wronged him. Besides, the rules of Rongguo Mansion are too unbearable. Looking at it this way, it may have gone downhill. One side is the mother clan, but not everyone I want you to come here, and on the one hand is my brother who treats you so well that people are jealous, so it's not clear what to do?"

Daiyu drank the honey water she was holding in her hand, and sighed in embarrassment: "I see, Mammy, please wait for me to wash up first!" Then, she hugged Nanny Sheng again: "Mommy, I didn't treat you as a slave, you don't have to be so presumptuous."

When Lin Jue woke up from sleep, the room was already pitch black. Lin Jue sat up, coughed twice, and saw the candle was lit. The sudden light in the darkness made Lin Jue blink uncomfortably: "Watching chess?"

Guanqi handed over a new cup of tea: "Master, it's me."

After Lin Jue drank the tea, she realized that she was not in Jiangnan, but in Rongguo Mansion.Lin Jue lifted the quilt and put on her shoes: "What time is it? What is the girl doing?"

"It's already you o'clock (seven o'clock in the afternoon), the ancestor sent someone to say that the master and the girl have a good rest, so there is no need to go there. Two quarters of an hour ago, the girl sent someone to call the master to have dinner. Seeing that the master is not awake, he didn't let him go." Calling you." Guanqi replied while helping Lin Jue get dressed.

After Lin Jue washed up, she became much more energetic. She looked at herself in the bronze mirror and said, "I will ask someone to take out the glass mirror for use tomorrow. The bronze mirror is too blurry. Let's go eat now."

Watching chess should be.

Walking to the door of the wing room, the two little servants guarding the door opened the curtain: "Miss, the uncle is here."

Lin Jue walked into the wing room and saw Daiyu leaning on the couch to read the account book. Lin Jue looked at the clean table and raised his eyebrows: "Why, you didn't have dinner?"

Daiyu ordered Zisu to serve first, and then said to Lin Jue with a smile, "I don't have much appetite, so I'll just wait for my brother."

Lin Jue took the account book: "This is not allowed in the future, you are weak, how can you not eat on time. Madam Sheng, look at the girl!"

Seeing that the two masters were in a good mood, Nanny Sheng laughed and joked: "The master and the girl have a good relationship, and we servants are too late to be happy. How can we stop the girl from waiting for the master to eat together?"

Hearing this, Lin Jue couldn't help but smile, stroked Daiyu's hair lovingly, and said, "The things I sent here are all for daily use, don't lock them in the warehouse. What's the matter?" Just move it out and use it if you like.”

Daiyu nodded, and Lin Jue checked the account book again: "When I came to the capital, my father gave me 5000 taels of banknotes. After two days, when everyone is here, you can give [-] taels to Lian's second sister-in-law, saying that it is our flower here. use."

Daiyu nodded, then asked puzzledly: "Why do you want to give it to Lian's second sister-in-law? Isn't it good to give it to the old ancestor?"

"Now it's Lian's second sister-in-law's housekeeper. Just give it to her. I'm afraid the money won't be used on us if I give it to our ancestors. I'll give you 3000 taels for the remaining 2000 taels. You take care of our small yard and give it to the servants." The monthly money and other things come from here." Lin Jue smiled.

These words startled Daiyu: "This is not possible, how can I be a housekeeper?"

"It's just us two brothers and sisters here. Could it be that Lian's second sister-in-law is in charge of our yard? You don't care about the house, so let me be the housekeeper?" Lin Jue said with a straight face, pretending to be angry.But seeing Daiyu's uneasy look, he couldn't help but feel distressed, and pulled Daiyu: "What are you afraid of, all the people in this yard are your servants, if you do well, who dares to say anything if you don't do well? Furthermore, my father said that the money obtained from the Zhuangzi shop outside the capital city in the past two years has been used by us, and there will be no shortage of money to spend, and it’s okay to spend too much. Besides, you are only seven years old, even if you are wrong, there is nothing wrong with it. Original."

Daiyu nodded. Lin Jue was afraid that she would be too exhausted to do everything by herself, so she comforted her and said, "It's just that you take care of Xiao's family. With Nanny Sheng here, I don't know what to ask." That's what she is, and it's not worth it to exhaust yourself."

Thinking about it, Lin Jue still decided to give Daiyu a vaccination first: "After returning to the Lin Mansion, Mother Lin is not in the capital, so you will be in charge of the entire mansion."

Daiyu was shocked again, she couldn't help but sit down: "Shall we go back, brother?"

"Let's see and talk, Daiyu, if you are happy living here, you don't have to move." Lin Jue was a little hesitant at this moment. There is no doubt that living in Rongguo Mansion will help him muddy the water. , and with myself, the unfair treatment in the original work will not happen.

Daiyu responded, and asked: "My brother brought me servants, but I need to add a few maids. They are all rough, I'm afraid they won't be able to serve my brother well."

Looking at Lin Jue's teasing eyes, Daiyu's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally she couldn't help saying: "I saw brother Baoyu's maid today as much as I do. Why doesn't brother use a maid?"

Lin Jue smiled: "Comparing me with that boy, can you bear it? I'm used to these boys, and it's inconvenient to use a maid. Anyway, you think about all the sewing and mending in my house, so it's not bad. gone."

After the two had dinner together, Lin Jue took Daiyu to his study and wrote down the people he wanted to visit one by one, from Lin Ruhai's classmates and friends to some old relatives, and then to Liang Wangfu, and then asked Daiyu draws up a suitable gift list.

Looking at the densely packed names, Daiyu took a deep breath: "There are so many people, when are you going to finish visiting?"

Lin Jue was funny, and circled a few people's names: "Only these need me to come to the door in person, and the rest just need to be delivered as gifts. The prince asked me to bring something to Liang Wang's mansion, and I will go there tomorrow. Make other arrangements, four It can be done in five days.”

Daiyu couldn't help laughing when she thought of Lin Jue and Shi Ziwei's quarrel a year ago, causing the whole Lin family to watch jokes: "Brother and Master Shizi didn't like each other when they first met, who would have thought that their friendship is so good now? "

Lin Jue also remembered what happened at that time: "It's because he was too bad, and no one said anything about his pride. The problem is that he is so proud that people hate him, and no one is watching him. Hmph, it's because I have a good temper that I can bear him." .”

Daiyu nuzzled: "Yes, brother has the best temper, everyone loves him."

"Why, am I wrong?" Lin Jue scratched Daiyu's creaking nest while talking.

Daiyu laughed and collapsed on the chair: "Good brother, please forgive me, I was wrong, I was wrong."

Seeing that Daiyu was about to burst into tears, Lin Jue smiled and stopped: "Say it quickly, you don't dare again."

After Daiyu begged for mercy, Lin Jue pulled Daiyu to accompany her to look at the gift list.

Daiyu nodded: "When will my brother go to the Imperial College?"

Lin Jue rubbed his chin: "According to my thinking, I will go after Xiangnian. But my father said that I had better sign up as soon as possible. I will go when I am free."

"Look, there is also the name of the teacher of the Imperial College on this list!" Daiyu exclaimed.

"Of course, don't forget that my father is Tanhua Lang, so make a list quickly."

Daiyu had no choice but to draw up a list according to the distance of the relationship and the level of the family.

After Daiyu finished drawing up the list, she realized that Lin Jue had been writing and drawing quietly. She couldn't help but walked over curiously to have a look, but it was Lin Jue who was drawing a small building. Seeing Daiyu coming, Lin Jue put down the pen and took He showed off a bit: "Look at how I draw, is it satisfying to be your embroidery building?"

After hearing this, Daiyu felt as if her heart had been poured into warm water. It was warm and swollen, and she resisted the urge to cry: "My brother's paintings are naturally the best."

Lin Jue smiled lightly and put her arms around Daiyu: "I'll make arrangements tomorrow, start work in winter and finish it next spring, then I'll take you to see it. If you don't like this place, we'll move back in."

Daiyu replied with a choked voice: "Okay, I will listen to my brother."
