Red Mansion Beijingwang

Prince Beijing's Palace, Xiaoxiang Pavilion.

Daiyu was leaning on the beauty couch, flipping through a book in her slender hands. Her bright, starry eyes were focused on her face, and a bookish air filled her face.

Zijuan walked in and said, "Miss, the princess is here."

"big sister"

Suddenly hearing Yuanchun's name, Daiyu's heart skipped a beat. She trembled slightly, and stood up from the beauty couch, saying in surprise, "Why is elder sister here?"

Although Yuanchun was friendly to these sisters, generally speaking it was they who went to see their elder sister, and it was rare for the elder sister to take the initiative to look for them. Daiyu felt guilty when she suddenly came to look for her.

I remember my brother said he would tell my elder sister about their affairs. Could it be that he has already told her now?
Zijuan replied softly, "He said he came to see the girl."

"Look at yourself?"

Daiyu thought about it after hearing this, and was not sure whether it was as she thought. But no matter what, she could not care less about it at this moment and got up from the beauty bed.

At this moment, Yuanchun, dressed in a gorgeous dress, walked in gracefully. She looked at the elf-like and delicate Daiyu with her bright starry eyes and said softly, "Pin'er."

Daiyu's heart skipped a beat. Under her curved eyebrows, her crystal clear eyes hid a bit of panic. She stepped forward and called out, "Big sister!"

I don’t know why, but I feel nervous when I see my older sister.

"Pin'er, I came to see you. I hope I didn't disturb you." Yuanchun said with a smile, her plump face full of kindness.

Seeing Yuanchun being so kind, Daiyu felt even more guilty. An unnatural look appeared on her fair face. She replied, "I was just idle. I'm so happy that my elder sister is here."

The two sat down, and Yuanchun took Daiyu's hand. She looked at the girl with her bright eyes and said, "You look much better and more outstanding. Our Pin'er has grown into a big girl."

Daiyu's previous sickly look was clearly visible, but now she looks rosy-cheeked, showing that she is getting better. Especially her girlish figure, which is now graceful and elegant, and has begun to take shape under the light white skirt embroidered with red plums.

Tsk tsk tsk, my husband has been working so hard!

Daiyu was quite uncomfortable with Yuanchun holding her hand. There was a trace of uneasiness between her eyebrows and eyes on her fair face. The word "our family" in particular touched the girl's heart, and she didn't know what to say.

Now, I really am a family with my elder sister.

Pursing her lips, Daiyu looked up at Yuanchun. Seeing that she looked a little tired, she changed the subject and asked with concern, "Sister, you don't look well. Are you feeling unwell? Have you asked a doctor to take a look?"

Yuanchun: "."

"I didn't sleep well last night, but it's nothing. Pin'er is thoughtful."

An unnatural look appeared on Yuanchun's plump face. She replied vaguely, but her heart was filled with shame, and she secretly spat at the young man.

She didn't sleep well last night, all because of the boy's so-called "repayment". He tormented her in various ways for a long time, and she didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night. Even now, her waist was a little sore.

Alas, this is not a "repay", it is clearly revenge!

But then again, she could tell something was wrong with my tired look. Daiyu does have a sharp eye, and it's probably because she's sensitive that she pays too much attention to these insignificant details!

Daiyu blinked her sparkling eyes and said softly, "Then elder sister should be careful not to overwork herself."

It is normal to be busy and hard-working in charge of such a huge palace, and she didn't think of it in a wrong way.

Yuanchun nodded slightly, her bright eyes looking at the girl's snow-white face. Her eyes moved slightly, and she patted the girl's soft little hand and said softly, "Pin'er, you are not young anymore, do you have any plans for the future?"

Daiyu was startled, raised her soft face, her beautiful eyes slightly widened under her curved eyebrows, and asked, "What do you mean, elder sister?"

I am not young anymore, is my elder sister planning to find a husband for her?
It’s no wonder Daiyu thought too much, because once it comes to a girl’s age, it is a sign of getting married. But at this moment, her body and soul belong to her brother, so how can she get married?

Or maybe her elder sister knew about her and her brother and wanted to kick her out of the house.

At this moment, the girl felt her heart collapse, and her slender body could not help but tremble. Her snow-white face was pale, and under her smoky brows, her bright starry eyes contained a hint of mist.

Yuanchun understood what was happening, chuckled, and said softly, "Pin'er, don't think too much. Your brother told me about your relationship last night."

"What? My brother said it all."

Daiyu's heart was shaken when she heard this. She stood up immediately. Her snow-white face flushed red as fire and her eyes were filled with panic.

Just as she thought, her brother told her elder sister about the matter. No wonder her elder sister came to look for her suddenly.

At this moment, the girl's heart was pounding with fear and her mind was in a mess. She didn't even pay attention to the details that her elder sister didn't sleep well yesterday and that her brother was accompanying her elder sister.

Yuanchun saw Daiyu's nervous reaction and felt amused. She said to her in a soothing voice, "Pin'er, don't be nervous. Come and sit down."

They were making a fuss as if they were the man-eating tigress. They really thought she was the jealous mistress.
I'm afraid that at this moment, Daiyu has imagined a bloody drama in her mind!
Daiyu clenched the embroidered handkerchief in her bare hands, her heart beating wildly. She could not express her anxiety and nervousness wordlessly. When Yuanchun asked her to sit down, she thought for a moment and sat down carefully.

The same goes for my brother. Even if he had explained everything clearly to my elder sister, he should have said it to me personally. It would be very awkward to let my elder sister come over.

Or is it that the brother failed to convince the elder sister and is here to punish him?
At this moment, the girl was in a confused state of mind, with some messy thoughts lingering in her mind, which made Daiyu suddenly feel melancholy and bitter.

If I am not accepted by my elder sister and am driven out of the house, how can I face people?

It was just her fault, and it was reasonable for her elder sister to be upset. What else could she say? Meeting her brother was her misfortune. Well, since she was at fault first, why should she be disliked? She came naked, and she will leave naked.

Yuanchun knew that the girl was sentimental, and when she saw her pale face, she knew that she was just imagining things, so she didn't keep it a secret and said, "Pin'er, your brother wants to let you play for two more years, but I think you are a grown-up girl, and it's not a good idea to delay it like this. I want you to enter the mansion earlier. What do you think?"

This so-called entering the mansion does not mean they are sworn brothers and sisters.

Daiyu felt relieved when she heard this. She thought something had gone wrong. She had made the worst plan.
Daiyu bit her pink lips with her pearly teeth, lowered her head slightly, clutched the embroidered handkerchief with her slender hands, and whispered, "My little sister will obey your orders."

Now that everything has been said out in the open, if Daiyu is still shy, it would be because she is being petty. When she moves into the mansion in the future, she will be the younger sister, and it is only reasonable for her to listen to her elder sister's orders.

Yuanchun smiled and said, "Your brother should have come to tell you these things in person, but he left early this morning. So I came here to ask your opinion. If you want to enter the mansion, I will give you a status. If you want to come later, it's up to you to decide."

Shui Rong discussed these matters with Yuanchun during their free time last night. Considering that this was a matter of the rear house, Shui Rong handed over full responsibility to Yuanchun, also to demonstrate the majesty of the mistress.

The so-called order of yin and yang is nothing more than this.

Daiyu couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in her heart when she heard this. She thought that her elder sister would be angry because she had secretly committed adultery with her brother, but she never expected that not only was she not angry, but she was also so kind to her. She couldn't help but feel even more guilty.

Why would you need a man when you can be close friends with your elder sister?

At this moment, Daiyu regretted having an affair with her brother. She had betrayed her elder sister's deep affection and friendship, and had also ignored Shuirong's contribution, feeling very upset.

After a long silence, Daiyu pursed her pink lips, a blush appeared on her snowy face, and she lowered her head and whispered, "Let's talk about it later."

It’s better to deal with the matter with my brother later, otherwise if the other sisters find out, they will laugh at me, which is so embarrassing!

Hearing this, Yuanchun glanced at Daiyu with her bright eyes, nodded slightly, and said softly: "Well, I'll do as you say."

Since Daiyu doesn't care about her status and Yuanchun has nothing to worry about, it's possible that these two people like to do things secretly, just as my husband said, it's interesting.

Daiyu saw that Yuanchun agreed to her request, and she finally felt relieved. She raised her beautiful face, her bright eyes narrowed under her curved eyebrows, and asked somewhat embarrassedly, "Big sister, do you mind?"

If it were Daiyu in their shoes, she would be so angry that she would be half dead, and there is no way she would speak so gently.

Yuanchun understood what he said, and after thinking for a while, she said with a somewhat disappointed tone: "My dear sister, when I was doing my job in the palace, I was walking on thin ice. One day, I was lucky enough to marry a husband. After marriage, my husband respected me and my mother-in-law was kind. I have such a blessing, so what is there to mind?"

To be honest, Shui Rong did have her respect for her for her absurd indulgence, but what was more important was that her husband rescued her from the cruel palace and gave her the dignity she deserved. What else could she be dissatisfied with?

Daiyu blinked, her face slightly flushed, and asked curiously, "Big sister, have you ever been jealous?"

She didn't know much about the situation in the deep palace, but in her opinion, her brother was indeed a bit of a playboy, and it was really hard to understand how an older sister could not be jealous.

Yuanchun knew what the girl meant. She chuckled, took the girl's hand, and said earnestly, "In the palace now, the only concubines who can be considered as proper maids are Keqing, San Yatou, Bao Yatou, Er Jie'er, San Jie'er, and the two sisters of the Zhen family. Add you and me, and there are only a handful of them. Compared with other royal nobles, your husband has few wives and concubines."

She had served in the palace for many years and was well aware of the temperament of the royal family. They had countless wives and concubines, which was quite absurd. Although her husband had some lustful flaws, he was at least kind and gentle to women. In comparison, her husband was still a good person.

Now I have a harmonious relationship with my mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, a harmonious relationship with my husband and wife, and both a son and a daughter. I am so blessed that others cannot wait to envy me. Why should I be dissatisfied and jealous?

People should have a contented heart and must not be greedy.

Daiyu was slightly stunned when she heard this. She thought that the number of hands was not enough. She was really ignorant!
Yuanchun understood what was happening. Most girls in the boudoir never go out of the house, so they only hear about these things from others, so they don’t know them very clearly. This has nothing to do with intelligence, it’s purely a matter of experience.

After a moment of silence, Yuanchun gently consoled him, "My dear sister, don't think too much about these things. It is enough for your husband to have you in his heart. As the saying goes, 'those with great power must have great desires.' Your husband is not an ordinary person, so it is normal for him to have concubines."

When Daiyu heard this, a strange feeling surged in her heart. Living in this era, she could understand that given her brother's status and position, it was essential for him to be surrounded by concubines, so she could understand it.

After all, if you think about it, she is just a concubine.

But having said that, brother can't be greedy. There are almost as many people in the house as there are two hands, and he is still not satisfied. Two fists cannot beat four hands. Excessive indulgence will harm his body.

Besides, if there are too many people around, I’m afraid there won’t be enough time to spend with myself.

However, since these words were said by Yuanchun, the mistress, she found it difficult to refute them. She pouted her lips slightly but said nothing.

Yuanchun saw this, but she didn't care. Her bright eyes twinkled, and she suddenly said, "Speaking of which, when Sister Zhu came to visit Brother Lang the other day, she brought her aunt and two cousins ​​with her. When she saw my husband, she was so impressed that she wanted to enter the palace. I agreed to this. When you are included, my sister, our palace will be lively again."

Shui Rong was embarrassed to speak out about the matter of the Li sisters, so he asked Yuanchun and Daiyu to speak, and said that it was her idea.

She was also convinced that she, as the mistress, had become a tool.

Originally Yuanchun didn't want to care. Her husband lost his temper and had evil intentions, so he should solve it himself. However, Yuanchun couldn't stand Shuirong's nagging and had no choice but to agree and cover up for her husband.

Alas, husband and wife are one body, what can she do? He is truly her enemy.

"This"

When Daiyu heard this, she was shocked. Why were the Li sisters suddenly mentioned again? And the eldest sister agreed. Doesn't this mean that the Li sisters will also enter the palace?
"Since big sister has arranged it, little sister has nothing to say."

Previously, she had expressed her heartfelt comfort, and now it was the arrangement of the mistress. What else could Daiyu say at this moment? She could only accept it with a pinch of her nose.

Look, in the blink of an eye, two more sisters have come, giving that philandering brother a free ride. (End of this chapter)
