Daiyu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 327 Daiyu Returns to the Manor ([-])

On the fifth day of the lunar new year, Wang Xifeng personally sent Daiyu and Tanchun out of the city.The three aunts and sisters-in-law talked and laughed happily along the way, and it was the first time that Tanchun was so unrestrained, and even the maid and mother-in-law followed in the car behind.Jia Lian and Lin De led the few servants in the Lin residence on horseback, and the guards that Princess Wu Jun specially left for Daiyu followed.

As soon as the carriage left the city gate, Daiyu raised her voice and said: "Lin De took the people back to Zhuangzi first, and my brother will protect us to go to Muni's nunnery."

Wang Xifeng didn't expect Daiyu to say such a word suddenly, but Lin De replied from outside the carriage: "Don't worry, girl, I will protect the carriage and go back safely." Worried?" Jia Lian also raised his horsewhip and lashed Lin De's buttocks, while Daiyu and the others were in the car, they could only hear the neighing and laughter outside.

After a while, the group split into two groups. Lin De led the maidservant and her household belongings to Zhuangzi, while Jia Lian led the rest of the guards and escorted Daiyu's carriage and Madam Tang's carriage to the village. Go to the Muni Temple in the north.

It wasn't until this time that Tanchun really felt relieved and said: "It can be regarded as coming out to take a breath." Hearing what Tanchun said, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but look up at her, Tanchun immediately reacted, smiled embarrassingly, but I don't know how to tell the difference.

Seeing this, Daiyu gave Tanchun an annoyed look and said, "Sister-in-law is the most forthright character, you only treat her sincerely, how can she treat you badly?" She followed Wang Xifeng's usual way of nodding her forehead, and nodded. Touched Tanchun's forehead and said: "It's because you still pretend to be smart, you don't have to be smart for a while, and you will be a fool all your life!"

Wang Xifeng answered: "Don't you say that you are always smart and foolish for a while?" Daiyu glanced at Wang Xifeng, then looked at Tanchun, and said with a smile: "Sister-in-law looks like she has been smart all her life? According to me, sister-in-law is the one." Really smart all the time, confused for a while."

Wang Xifeng was taken aback, and was about to ask Daiyu why she said this, but when the carriage stopped abruptly, Jia Lian hurriedly approached the window and whispered: "I met the fourth prince, stay in the carriage and don't come out. , I'll go..." Before Jia Lian finished speaking, he heard the sound of horseshoes coming from far and near.

Tanchun didn't know about the rumors about the emperor's eldest grandson Xisan in the palace, but Wang Xifeng knew about it. Hearing that it was the fourth prince, Wang Xifeng couldn't help but look at Daiyu, but she also pursed her lips tightly and stopped joking.

Tanchun remembered that the last time he was in Daiyu Zhuangzi, he decided to go for an outing in the mountains and forests behind, but he was also stopped by the fourth prince on the way.Thinking of the heroic figure of the fourth prince and the gentle and elegant speech, Tanchun couldn't help but blushed slightly, but also thought that the fourth prince was looking for Daiyu, so he couldn't help looking at Daiyu with a little more complicated eyes.

But Daiyu sighed silently in her heart: How come the Holy Majesty has already stated that this fourth prince is still so ignorant?
Just as he was thinking, the fourth prince had already approached the carriage Daiyu was riding in. This time, the fourth prince was not as talkative as last time. He just heard that Jia Lian led the bodyguards, got off his horse and greeted the fourth prince, saying: "I have seen you The fourth prince..." Before he could finish speaking, he heard the fourth prince scolded angrily: "Get out!" Then there was a loud whipping sound and a muffled groan.

Just hearing the sound, Wang Xifeng's heart tightened, and she wanted to lift the window curtain to look out, but was stopped by Daiyu gritting her teeth.Daiyu bit her lower lip, and desperately shook her head at Wang Xifeng. Under Tanchun's puzzled gaze, Wang Xifeng held back her tears tremblingly and withdrew the hand that was stretched out to open the window curtain.

Although Tanchun didn't understand what Daiyu and Wang Xifeng meant, he could also see the tension on their expressions, and followed Daiyu and Wang Xifeng, listening to the movement outside.

After a while, another guard said loudly: "Your Majesty, there are female relatives of the Prince of Wu County in the car, please be respectful, Your Majesty!" As soon as the words fell, there were two more whips.

Before the sound of the whip stopped, Jia Lian yelled angrily: "The inside of the car is a bitch and sister-in-law. I don't know what the Fourth Highness wants to do?" This was the fourth prince's cold voice, and he asked: "Is Lord Yuxian in the car?"

I don't know if he was asking inside the car?Still asking Jia Lian, the three people in the car held their breath for a while, but Jia Lian didn't make a sound.

After waiting for a while, the fourth prince asked again: "Is Yu'er in the car? Can I see you?" This time the voice sounded much gentler, even with a hint of fatigue.

Daiyu didn't know what was going on outside the car, so she looked at Wang Xifeng.Wang Xifeng frowned tightly, shook his head at her, and was about to open his mouth to answer.Daiyu quickly covered Wang Xifeng's mouth, took a deep breath, smiled at Wang Xifeng, then turned her head to the outside of the car and said, "I don't know that the fourth prince is outside the car?"

As if he was delighted to hear Daiyu's response, the fourth prince's voice became softer, and he said softly: "It's me, I wonder if it's convenient for Yu'er to meet?"

Daiyu thought for a while and replied loudly: "Why don't you invite the fourth prince to sit in the villa?" : "Look at the direction you are going, you are not going to Zhuangzi."

Daiyu didn't hide anything and said: "Originally I wanted to go to the nunnery outside the city to offer incense, but since I met the Fourth Prince, it's okay to turn around and go back."

When Daiyu said this, the fourth prince hesitated, thought for a while and replied: "Since that's the case, why don't I send you there, then I will wait for you outside the nunnery and return with you Zhuangzi, do you know if it is possible?"

The fourth prince's words were very polite, but Daiyu knew that if she didn't follow the fourth prince's wishes today, she might not be kind, so she thought about it before replying: "If that's the case, then I will trouble the fourth prince."

So Jia Lian and the guards quickly got on their horses again, and Wang Xifeng and Daiyu in the carriage stopped talking. Tanchun wanted to ask, but seeing Wang Xifeng and Daiyu's expressions were dignified, he dared not speak.

In the silence of the people all the way, they soon arrived outside the Muni nunnery. The fourth prince saw that he had indeed arrived at the nunnery, so he didn't say anything more. Before Daiyu's car entered the nunnery, he rode his horse to the front of the car and said softly: "Today's recklessness is really unavoidable. If there is any offence, I hope... Yu'er will forgive me."

The fourth prince's voice sounded a little heavy, Tanchun really wanted to ask what was his last resort, even Wang Xifeng wanted to ask, of course the reasons were different, but Daiyu didn't say a word, letting the carriage drive into Mou Buddhist nunnery.

Daiyu made a temporary decision to come here, and did not notify at first, but at this moment the carriage had already entered the Muni Temple, the host got the news and hurried over.

If it was normal, Daiyu might still be able to discuss with the host, but now Daiyu is not in a good mood, she just hopes to see Xichun as soon as possible, knowing her situation here, so she can return quickly to solve the troubles outside the nunnery.So she just nodded at Nanny Tang, and Nanny Tang stepped forward and said clearly: "Master Yu County, Prince of Wu County, come to see Miss Xichun of Jia's Mansion who lives here."

The presiding officer was old with Master Miaoyu, and was entrusted by Miaoyu to take care of Xichun. Now that the county magistrate of Wujun Prince's Mansion came, he couldn't help but be more respectful, and personally led everyone to the Zen house where Xichun lived.

I saw Xichun, dressed in plain paddy field clothes, kneeling in front of the altar and chanting scriptures.I don't know if I didn't hear the voice of Daiyu and others coming in, or I just pretended not to know.Xichun didn't even change the speed of chanting the scriptures, she just knelt there steadily.

Both Daiyu and Wang Xifeng couldn't help frowning, and looked at each other, Daiyu stepped forward and stood beside Xichun and whispered, "Xichun?"

Daiyu paused when she saw the rosary in Xichun's hand with sharp eyes, but she still knelt there, pretending not to know, and chanted the scriptures with her eyes closed.Daiyu felt that the unknown fire could not be suppressed, bent down and tore off the rosary in Xichun's hand, threw it on the ground, and angrily said: "I asked you to become a monk?!"

At this time, Xichun couldn't stop but could only stop, but she still knelt there, looked up at the glaring Daiyu, her eyes gradually filled with tears, and sobbed: "I am a pure and innocent girl. , Why do you have to be tired by them? Why do you have to splash the sewage on my body?" After speaking, he knelt on the ground and began to cry.

It's not hard to hear that Xichun's voice is very depressed, as if she is biting something.Hearing Xichun's cry, Daiyu's movements couldn't help but pause, Wang Xifeng came forward and hugged Xichun in her arms, while gently stroking her back, she reprimanded in a low voice: "Look at your idea. Promise? You are innocent, who can dirty you?"

Until now, Tanchun still didn't know what to do, he just stood aside blankly, looking at Xichun who used to be reticent and cold, crying until his heart broke, but he didn't know why.

Daiyu took two deep breaths, squatted down, pulled Xichun out of Wang Xifeng's arms, stared at Xichun's eyes that were a little red and swollen from crying, and asked, "Do you still remember what that **** told you?" ?"

Xichun looked at Daiyu with tears in her eyes, and after a while she nodded, Daiyu smiled slightly, "Do you still remember why I helped you come here to observe your filial piety?"

After Xichun nodded again, Daiyufang said seriously: "Then you remember, I want you here, be good! Once you call me sister, I will always be your sister, what? Don't be afraid, there is a sister here!"

Not to mention Xichun, even Tanchun and Wang Xifeng were stunned seeing Daiyu like this!Daiyu had never given such a promise to anyone.

Seeing that Xichun was still looking at her anxiously, Daiyu couldn't help laughing and said, "After my mother passed away, Aunt Luo took care of me like a mother. After my father passed away, Master also took care of me like a father."

Speaking of this, Daiyu paused, and then said: "You wanted to worship me as your teacher back then. Although I didn't agree, you have learned from me a lot these years. Now I am your sister and your master. In the future ,I take care you!"

Hearing what Daiyu said, Xichun threw herself into Daiyu's unforgiving arms and burst into tears.After a while, Fang stopped crying, nodded and said: "I understand, sister Lin, don't worry, I will be fine here."

Seeing Xichun like this, Daiyu nodded and smiled and said: "Your painting utensils and so on, I brought them in a box for you. If there is anything missing, just ask Ruhua to come to Zhuangzi to find me. If I have time, I will do it with your sister Miaoyu. I often come to see you." As he spoke, he looked back at Tanchun, and said with a smile, "Your elder sister Tanchun also lives in my village now, and we will all come to see you."
