Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 410 Full Moon Wine [Part [-]]

Feng Mansion West Courtyard.

A group of girls who have not left the cabinet are gathered together at this time, watching the infant little Feng Can.

Little Feng Can is full moon, so naturally they will not come empty-handed.

With good craftsmanship, I have prepared clothes, hats, shoes and socks made by myself.

If you have plenty in your hands, you should prepare gold and silver jewelry such as longevity locks, collars, and bracelets.

There are also nettles, sachets, wraps, etc. brought by others, and so on.

No matter the value, it's all the girls' wishes.

Among them, the gift from Daiyu is the most special.

After all, they will be a family in the future, so what they do is a rare copybook.

The content of the copybook is "Thousand Characters", which is exactly the meaning of enlightenment.

But "Thousand Characters" has been written by many calligraphers. The reason why this copybook is a treasure is that it was written by Zhiyong, the seventh grandson of Wang Xizhi.

According to legend, in order to promote the calligraphy of his ancestors, this Zen master wrote more than [-] copies of "Zhencao Thousand Characters" and distributed them to many temples in eastern Zhejiang.

It is a pity that of the more than [-] copies, less than ten copies were handed down in the end.

Let those who still have collections today regard them as treasures.

Daiyu took out this word from home, which made Lin Ruhai feel a little bit reluctant.

But thinking about sending it to Feng's family, I can see it anytime in the future, so there is no hindrance.

It's just unavoidable to secretly feel that girls are really extroverted.

At this moment when Tanchun saw the baby in swaddling for the first time, he couldn't help but let out a low voice:
"Brother Can is almost carved out of the same mold as Brother Feng!"

Xiangyun next to him curled his lips when he heard the words, and muttered:

"I think it's more like Sister Bao. Look at the eyebrows and face shape, it's obviously Sister Bao's appearance!"

The two of them would argue a few words when they met, and today was no exception.

"Heck! What's the point of arguing about it? Brother Can must have both the advantages of his parents, so he just doesn't look bad!"

Daiyu covered her mouth and smiled lightly, and joked again:
"It's the two of you, bickering when you get together, I'm afraid you won't be lonely in the future!"

After the national funeral this year, the two will marry overseas.

Listening to Daiyu's teasing now, it's rare for them not to talk back.

For a moment, they seemed to think of something, and they looked at each other in a complicated way.

The two of them are naturally not jealous, but they are inevitably touched when they think of leaving their homeland and family soon.

After all, he was still fifteen or sixteen years old, even Xiang Yun, who had chosen to go overseas by himself and had always been cheerful and lively, felt a little disappointed at this time.

Daiyu has always been sensitive.

Seeing them like this, I immediately realized that I shouldn't mention this at this time.

But she has always been somewhat arrogant.

Even though he knew that he had made a mistake and wanted to go back a few words, he couldn't open his mouth for a while.

If it is normal, Baochai will naturally support her and help her to make things right.

But now, Baochai was leaning on the other side of the kang, but her eyes were on Xiao Feng Can, and she didn't hear their discussion.

When Daiyu was struggling in her heart and wanted to say a few words of comfort, Xichun, who was always reticent, suddenly said:

"Huh? He laughed! He laughed!"

Even if she is as withdrawn as she is, seeing Xiao Feng Can's smile will melt her heart.

Daiyu breathed a sigh of relief immediately, looking at Xiao Feng Can who rescued her, she couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

Baochai was usually the one who rescued her, but now it was Baochai's son's turn.

Tanchun and Xiangyun's attention was also diverted, and the melancholy on their faces disappeared in an instant, and they all gathered around to tease Feng Can.

"Oh oh oh!"

"Giggle!"

"Brother Can! Look at Auntie!"

"..."

Seeing that neither of them was melancholy, Daiyu silently retreated a few steps, and sat down beside Baochai.

Baochai didn't say anything, just took her hand lightly.

The two looked at each other and smiled, and then watched the sisters tease Xiao Feng Can with a smile.

After watching for a while, Xiao Feng Can was carried aside by the nanny to nurse.

The girls were still talking about it in low voices.

Only then did Daiyu ask in a low voice:
"Sister, how is your recovery these days?"

She had heard people say that giving birth to a child was like going through the gates of hell.

Even if the production is successful, it will take half a life.

Seeing Baochai still wearing a Baotou hat and not wearing any makeup, Daiyu couldn't help feeling a little distressed.

"What else? After confinement, I gained a lot of weight."

When Baochai heard this, she showed a sweet smile, and said:
"When I was pregnant, my father didn't let me eat too much, and didn't let me take supplements casually. He said that he was afraid that the child would be too big to give birth. After giving birth, he asked me to eat more and supplement more. Isn't that right? Now my face is full of red, you know She just finished confinement, and those who didn’t know thought she was pregnant!”

The sisters all gathered together at this time, just in time to hear Baochai's last words.

Xiangyun sat down grinningly, and said with a smile:

"Haha! I've known Brother Feng for a long time, but I didn't expect that he even knows how to give birth!"

"Giggle!"

Seeing that the sisters were all amused by her, Xiangyun said triumphantly:

"I've heard people say that a woman's childbirth is a journey to hell. Brother Feng is doing this for the benefit of his sister. He would rather let Brother Can give birth to be thinner than to avoid dystocia!"

She often went to various houses with Mrs. Wei and heard the elders talk about it.

When Tanchun heard it, he immediately joked:
"Young lady, do you still understand this?"

Here are all my own sisters, and there are no outsiders, so it's okay to talk privately.

But when Xiangyun heard such a joke, his face still blushed, and he hurriedly explained:

"I'm just hearsay, how can I know anything?"

Baochai smiled, and then said solemnly:
"Our lord also said the same thing. Although he doesn't know much about medicine, he is also knowledgeable about the past and the present. It must not be aimless. You will have the same experience in the future. When the time comes, don't forget what you said today."

The girls naturally understood what was good and bad, and nodded upon hearing this.

At this moment, Aunt Meng brought a group of people over.

"Congratulations, madam, congratulations, young master!"

Aunt Meng bowed to Baochai with a happy face, and said with a smile:
"Someone came from the palace just now, and passed on the Queen Mother's oral order, secretly ennobling Brother Can as the Forbidden Captain of the Fifth Grade Dragon, and said that when Brother Can grows up in the future, he will serve His Majesty and study together!"

All the girls were startled when they heard the words, thinking that the messenger had come.

Fortunately, there was no man behind Aunt Meng, so they were all relieved.

Baochai was also a little surprised, and said "Oh?"

Aunt Meng walked away with a smile, let out the maids behind who were holding trays, and said:
"These are rewards from the palace, the old lady asked me to bring them to you quickly!"

Even if Yuan Chun wanted to give more rewards, he still couldn't break away from the rules of the palace, but overall it was quite generous.

There is a pair of longevity locks and four ingots.

One is for Xiao Fengcan to suppress evil, and the other is for Baochai to nourish himself.

There are four pieces of "Longevity for a Hundred Years" palace satin and four pieces of "Kirin Xianrui" palace silk, which means literally.

Finally, there are ten gold ingots and ten silver ingots, which symbolize perfection.

Baochai nodded to Aunt Meng, and said:

"The Feng family got Mu Tian'en, it's really a blessing for three lives. It's a pity that I look like this, it's really inconvenient, please ask Aunt Meng to thank the angel for me."

Aunt Meng smiled and replied:

"Ma'am, don't worry, the master has already taken care of everything!"

Naturally, Baochai didn't need to worry about this kind of thing.

The eunuch who delivered the decree was left behind by Feng Yibo, and was arranged in the other garden with the palace servants he brought, so that the guests would not feel uncomfortable.

The rewards that should be given have already been given in place.

Seeing Baochai nodding, Aunt Meng said again:
"In addition, the old lady asked me to invite all the girls to the table. The theater troupe over there is about to start singing, and let the girls come over to play."

When the girls heard the words, they immediately showed embarrassing expressions.

Daiyu looked like a master, so she smiled and said:
"There are so many noble people here today, when we get some play, Aunt Meng will send someone back to the old lady first, and say that we will go there later to accompany the elders to listen to the play."

When Baochai heard this, she nodded to Aunt Meng.

Only then did Aunt Meng bring someone over to answer.

The girls then also left the west courtyard and went to the main hall.

At this time, the actors have already begun to sing.

On the stage, Fang Guan was wearing a phoenix crown, tassels, and palace attire, singing "Cailou Pei", the first fold of "Red Maned Horse".

Seeing this, all the girls couldn't help feeling a little strange.

"Red Maned Horse" is the story of Wang Baochai and Xue Pinggui. Generally, there are more discounts on "Bie Kiln Throwing the Army", "Exploring the Cold Kiln", and "Wujiapo", but not many people order the first discount.

After waiting for the ceremony, the girls took their seats.

Only one of the servants of Feng's mansion would know.

It turned out that there were too many noble people today, you pushed me to let it go, but in the end it was impossible, Li Mengshi could only call the shots, let the actors sing first, and then change if there is something here.

As soon as the girls understood the whole story, and caught up with the transition, they heard someone from the main seat say:

"Since you don't order dramas, I will order one."

All the girls looked around, only to see a young woman in fine attire, sitting in the upper seat holding a playbook.

Next to her is Xiangyun's aunt, Mrs. Wei.

To let Mrs. Hou Fu sit down, the status of this woman must be very noble.

Hearing that she wanted to play, Li Mengshi said with a smile on his face:

"It should be so! If the princess doesn't order, how can anyone else order?"

It turned out that this young woman was none other than Princess Zhen of Beijing.

As far as status is concerned, she is the tallest present.

Although Feng Yibo didn't invite King Beijing Jing, but the visitor was a guest, Li Mengshi naturally let her to the main table according to her status.

Hearing Li Mengshi's words, she smiled and threw the playbook on the tray, and said casually:
"Just order the male sacrifice."

The "Men's Sacrifice" in "The Story of the Hairpin" is also called "Jiangjiang".

It is about the heroine Qian Yulian who resists remarriage, commits suicide by throwing herself into the river, and is rescued by others.

The male protagonist Wang Shipeng thought that she had been buried underwater, so he prepared ceremonies to pay homage to her during the Ching Ming Festival.

Although this play praises righteous husbands and married women, it is not suitable for this play to be sung on the full moon after all.

Hearing that the other party wanted this play, Li Mengshi frowned slightly at first, then smiled again and said:
"It makes the princess laugh. You ordered this play, and they haven't arranged it yet. Why don't you change what they are good at?"

Li Shouzhong and Feng Yibo are not inferior to the King of Beijing, and Li Mengshi is naturally not afraid of each other!

But after all, it was a day of great joy for the Feng family, so peace was naturally the most important thing.

She wants to let the other party know enough is enough through patience.

"Really? What a pity!"

It's a pity, Princess Bei Jing smiled, and said pointedly

"The theatrical troupe of the stately Marquis of Chu's mansion didn't even learn "The Story of the Hairpin". These performers really should beat them!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Mengshi slowly restrained his smile, and said coldly:
"Princess, please order according to the play list. The Feng family is a small family, and the theater troupe will not sing so many mourning plays."

In the struggle between the DPRK and China, there has always been peace in the fight, and fighting in the peace.

Fighting without breaking, and harmony without difference are the rules of the court.

Although she has never participated in the affairs of the court, she also understands this truth.

But today, Princess Beijing is obviously not kind and aggressive, making troubles one after another, as if she wants to tear her skin apart.

Then Baochai is not here at this time, as the elder of the Feng family, she presides over Feng Yibo's rear house, so naturally she cannot just sit idly by.

But Princess Beijing hit a snag, but still refused to give up, and continued:
"Really? I wanted to order "The Orphan of the Zhao Family", but it seems that it's gone?"

People are full moon, you order an "orphan"?
Li Mengshi, who originally wanted the other party to stop in moderation, couldn't help squinting his eyes slightly when he heard this, and said in a deep voice:
"Since the princess doesn't know what to order, why don't I order the first discount of "Flame Horse" for the princess."

As the saying goes: come and don't reciprocate!
The Li family is a well-known scholar, so Li Mengshi naturally cannot be rude.

The first chapter of "Flame Horse" is called "Copy Home".

Princess Beijing was born in the Zhen family in the south of the Yangtze River, and ordering this play is stabbing her in the heart.

Seeing the shadows of swords and swords on both sides, Princess Beijing was about to fight against the case, Madam Wei said with a smile at this time:
"On a day like today, it's time to listen to a monkey show. I think "Sun Walker Havoc in Heaven" will be played first. Let's all be lively."

Li Mengshi smiled at her, looked at Zhenshi again, and asked:
"That's a good suggestion. The princess wants to watch the monkeys make trouble?"

Upon hearing this, Princess Bei Jing gave Mrs. Wei a meaningful look, then shook her head and said:

"No, I'm a little tired, let's stop here today."

As she spoke, she got up slowly, asked the servant girl to put on a cloak for her, then turned her head and said:
"Mrs. Wei, do you want to come together?"

Mrs. Wei got up, smiled apologetically, looked at the girls' table again, and then replied:
"My niece is familiar with Mrs. Xue, and I'm afraid I will have to say goodbye later before leaving."

Hearing the other party's polite refusal, Princess Bei Jing nodded, without further words, instead nodded slightly to Li Mengshi, and said:
"I'm not feeling well today, so I won't bother you much, and I'll take my leave first."

Obviously, she didn't come to celebrate today, nor did she really come to make trouble.

Instead, he came to express his opinion on behalf of the king of Beijing County.

This kind of thing, water-soluble is not good to do it yourself.

Otherwise, it would be a shame, and there would be no room for change.

An expression of dissatisfaction by her, the princess, is enough for many people to understand the meaning of founding the country.

At the same time, some room for mediation was left.

Seeing that the other party should stop in moderation, Li Mengshi naturally couldn't lose his courtesy.

"Congratulations to the princess!"

Immediately, she led a group of people to send Princess Beijing out of the second door.

Not long after Princess Beijing left, many members of the founding line, as well as some family members of the Fence Sitting Faction who didn't know it, also left one after another with heavy hearts.

Li Meng didn't want to stay, and asked Li Wan and Aunt Li to help see the guests off.

After all those who made up the numbers left, the Feng residence became lively again.
