serious man in the red chamber

Chapter 371: Guilty person
The misty morning light was already shining through the door and window.

The room was silent.

Suddenly, Jia Hu's exclamation came from inside the tent: "Oh, why are you pinching me?"

"You're holding my hair down again!" Lin Daiyu's voice said.

"Oh, that's not my fault."

"It was!"

Lin Daiyu's hair was spread in Jia Hu's arms, and she leaned against his chest quietly.

Jia Hu sat up with his hands on the bed and rested his head on the high pillow at the head of the bed. He hugged Lin Daiyu with both hands and lifted her up to make her lean more comfortable. He then dragged the quilt over and covered her snow-white arms. live.

Jia Hu held Lin Daiyu in his arms with one hand, patted her back gently with the other hand, and whispered: "The emperor will be hunting in the Western Mountains in a while, how about I take you to relax?"

Lin Daiyu: "I'm not going." She sat up straight, picked up her underwear from the bed and put it on.

Jia Hu tied the lace up for her and hugged her again: "It's still early, let's lie down for a while."

"I do not want this!"

Lin Daiyu lay lazily on Jia Hu's body and said in a low voice: "My sister-in-law and the others have been working hard for the past ten days. I have a lot of debts. If I don't deal with it, I don't know what will happen next."

Jia Hu patted her gently: "I'm not going anywhere these days. I'll help you."

Lin Daiyu stopped talking and buried her head on Jia Hu's chest, rubbing it like a cat.

Jia Hu was a little amused by her, "What's happened to you recently? Since we got married, why are you a little sentimental? Is it because our father and the others left?"

Lin Daiyu didn't answer, but pressed her head closer to her.

Jia Hu held her tightly in his arms: "With me, don't be afraid."

Lin Daiyu hugged Jia Hu's waist tightly and snorted.

The room fell into silence again, and the two of them hugged each other and lay under the quilt on the bed.

The chiming bell suddenly rang when it shouldn't be ringing!
Then they all heard faint but clear footsteps coming from outside.

As expected, Zicuckoo's voice soon came from outside the tent: "Second Master."

Lin Daiyu pushed away Jia Hu, who was holding her, and sat up straight: "Come in."

Outside the gauze curtain, Zijuan stepped forward to tie up the gauze curtain hanging outside Babu's bed, then walked in and opened the lid of the incense burner, blowing a stream of air inside, and the agarwood in the copper burner burned. There was an open fire and the room was filled with fragrance.

Then, Zicuckoo stepped forward and closed the curtain on the bed.

Lin Daiyu had already put on her middle coat. At this time, she walked out of the bed with her hair disheveled and asked, "How is the weather today?"

Zicuckoo opened the closet and took out Lin Daiyu's clothes. She said, "Look at the weather, it's going to rain heavily today. The girl needs to add a jacket." Then she ran to the closet and took out a dress without Lin Daiyu put on the sleeves of the double-breasted jacket.

Jia Hu lifted the quilt, got out of bed, put on her shoes and walked out.

Lin Daiyu: "You should put on some clothes before going out."

Before he could say anything, Jia Hu came back and said with a smile: "It's raining just in time, so there's no need to go anywhere!"

Lin Daiyu smiled: "Is it raining?"

Jia Hu: "It's drizzling outside."

"puff"

Zijuan suddenly laughed, and Jia Hu turned his head and glanced at her, "Why are you laughing?"

Zijuan didn't say anything. She tied Lin Daiyu's long hair into a bun and inserted a jade hairpin into it. Then she walked to the door and called, "Xueyan, come in and help the girl wash up." After that, she walked back to the closet. He stepped forward, took out Jia Hu's clothes from inside, and walked lightly behind Jia Hu: "Second Master, please stretch out your hand."

Jia Hu stretched out his hand back.

At this time, Xueyan and Xiangling came in to help wash up.

Jia Hu glanced outside: "Where is Qingwen?"

Xueyan and Xiangling looked at Zijuan.

Jia Hu frowned: "What's wrong?"

Zicuckoo stretched out the folds for him from behind, then went around to the front and knelt down half-kneeling down to tie the belt for him.After fastening her belt, she replied: "Qingwen was doing needlework last night and didn't go to bed until the end of the third night." After that, she walked to the closet and took out a cotton robe for Jia Hu to put on.Jia Hu stopped talking and followed Lin Daiyu to wash her face, wipe her teeth, and rinse her mouth. Seeing that Zijuan had made the bed, she walked to the dressing mirror and sat down: "I'm not going out today. I just want to pull up my hair." The bun is done.”

Lin Daiyu came over: "I'll do it." After saying that, she held his head and combed it one by one. She didn't need to wear a crown at home. Jia Hu never tied or wiped his forehead. He only combed his hair and tied it with a red ribbon. Tie your hair into a knot.

"Where is the house that Uncle Lin was looking at?" Jia Hu suddenly asked.

Lin Daiyu walked to the copper basin, bent down and washed two handfuls, took the face towel from Xue Yan's hand, wiped her hands and said, "It's right on the street from Di'anmen."

Jia Hu: "Di'anmen? Aren't they all the property of the royal family?"

Lin Daiyu: "The emperor suggested it. He said it was close to the imperial city, easy to get in and out of the palace, and safe." As she said that, she saw that his forehead was not clean, so she stepped forward and wiped his forehead with a towel. While laughing: "Without amber, you can't even wash your face."

Jia Hu didn't answer and sat there motionless.

Lin Daiyu: "What's wrong?"

Jia Hu pondered for a while and replied: "The emperor is planning to transfer our father to Beijing."

Lin Daiyu: "You mean the emperor wants my father to join the cabinet?"

Jia Hu: "That's right. I guess the emperor will issue an order once the two rivers stabilize."

Lin Daiyu became excited: "This way my father can live in the capital permanently. I can also fulfill my filial piety. Let's go there and have a look later."

Jia Hu smiled: "You don't want to settle the score?"

Lin Daiyu also smiled and said: "It's not over today anyway, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Seeing that she was so happy, Jia Hu really didn't want to throw cold water on her, so he said to Zicuckoo: "Put the food on the table."

In the blink of an eye, breakfast was set up in the small dining room next to the big living room, including two meat and two vegetarian dishes, four hot dishes, and four side dishes. Three drawers of small steamers were steaming. Each steamer contained six steamed buns, and the white ones were fine noodles. , black ones are fine buckwheat, yellow ones are glutinous millet, coarse grains and fine grains, a combination of meat and vegetables, very healthy.

Hu Bo had already rushed over, filled half a bowl of white rice porridge for Jia Hu, and then went to get Lin Daiyu's bowl.

Zijuan hurriedly came over: "I'll do it."

Jia Hu raised his hand: "Let her hold it."

Amber picked up the bowl in front of Lin Daiyu, put two spoons of porridge into the bowl, leaving just two points from the edge of the bowl, held it in front of Lin Daiyu, put her hands on the table, and said softly: "It's hot. Princess, drink slowly." Turned around. He took the chopsticks from Xue Yan's hand and offered them to Lin Daiyu with both hands.

Lin Daiyu smiled slightly, took the chopsticks, and looked at Jia Hu.

Jia Hu gave her a piece of white bread and then started eating.

A gust of wind picked up and it started raining heavily outside.

Jia Hu swallowed the bun in his mouth and gave Lin Daiyu a piece of meat with chopsticks, "Are you still going?"

Lin Daiyu said crisply: "Go!"

Jia Hu smiled and shouted outside: "Who is outside?"

"What are your orders, Your Majesty?" Lin Zhixiao's voice came from outside the door.

Jia Hu: "Tell the officers on duty to hitch the carriage. I want to accompany the princess out."

Lin Zhixiao's family replied: "Yes."

Amber: "I'm going to prepare the clothes for the princess to go out."

Jia Hu nodded and said, "You can go too."

Amber looked at Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu smiled: "Go."

"Hey!"

Amber smiled happily, turned around and walked towards the bedroom.

Seeing Hu Hu walk into the bedroom, Lin Daiyu gave Jia Hu a piece of chopsticks and said, "What's wrong with you?"

Jia Hu took a big mouthful of porridge and said, "There must be a white-faced person in this family. Eat, eat, and bring some food to Uncle Lin later." After that, he gave Lin Daiyu another steamed bun.

Lin Daiyu opened her mouth, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only lower her head and eat.
