Daiyu of the Red Chamber

Chapter 79 Visitor (1)

Daiyu and Wang Xifeng counted the days to wait for Lin Ruhai and the others to return, but they didn't expect an unexpected guest to arrive on the fifth day of the lunar new year.After not seeing each other for several years, Wan Yu looked even more gentle and bright. When she appeared in Dai Yu's eyes, both the little sisters' eyes were red with excitement.

Today's Wanyu has not yet become a filial piety because of taking care of Daiyu. She is wearing a green gown sprinkled with gold, a honey-colored pleated skirt, and a white jade hairpin that Daiyu gave to her back then. He took off all the gold and silver jewelry on his hands, and only wore a jade bracelet.The whole person looks very quiet and elegant.

Daiyu was very moved when she saw Wanyu wearing the jade hairpin she had given her back then, her eyes were red and she wanted to salute, but Wanyu held her up.

At this time, Wan Yu only had this younger sister who was more slender and delicate than before, so she naturally ignored Wang Xifeng who was beside her with a big belly.

When Daiyu turned her head and was about to introduce Wanyu, she saw Wang Xifeng squatting down with difficulty, holding her belly with one hand and her lower back with the other.Fortunately, Daiyu was not scared to death.

Daiyu hurriedly supported Wang Xifeng, turned her head and said to Wanyu, "Sister Wan, forgive me, this is my sister-in-law, her maiden name is Wang. Everyone in the family calls her Sister Feng. Sister-in-law is heavy, so sister Wan will be excused. "

Wan Yu smiled gently at Dai Yu, and said without caring, "Why do you need to be so polite when my sisters get together?" After speaking, she began to look at Wang Xifeng carefully.

I saw Wang Xifeng wearing a black silk hair in a flying fairy bun, and a crystal flying phoenix hairpin, which was translucent and translucent, was firmly inserted into her head.I saw the whole piece of crystal hollowed out, five finger-sized sapphires were inlaid on the tail of the phoenix, and many small sapphires were dotted scatteredly on the eyes and wings of the phoenix.It complements the pair of drop-shaped sapphire drop earrings on the earlobe.

There is also a huge sapphire on the forehead of a snow fox. Although it looks like there are no other things like hairpins and hairpins, it feels like a complete set.She wore a moon-white robe with a purple satin edge and a straight collar with a high collar, embroidered with purple magnolias all over her body.

It stretched Wang Xifeng's already tall stature even longer.On the lower body is a snow-blue long skirt with magnolias outlined in silver thread, and it is matched with a snow-blue silver thread embroidered magnolia and snow fox shawl on the shoulders.It looks elegant and sophisticated.

Wan Yu nodded when she saw this, with a smile on her face, but she didn't know that this body was specially designed and made by Daiyu for Wang Xifeng, and it was originally planned to be given to Wang Xifeng as an annual gift.I didn't want Wang Xifeng to come to Gusu, so I gave it to her in advance.Otherwise, Wanyu might be in for a treat.

Wan Yu looked at Wang Xifeng and said with a smile: "Since she is Yu'er's sister-in-law, there is no need to be more polite. Yu'er and I are both close friends in the boudoir and sworn sisters." After speaking, she was led by Daiyu to go inside.

Although Wang Xifeng is also a noble daughter from a wealthy family, and usually associates with daughters from wealthy families. Although there are many contacts between four princes and eight princes, the royal family is different. Where does Wanyu stop? Plain and clean also makes people feel expensive.The people I made friends with in the past are far behind Wan Yu.

At this moment, Wang Xifeng was a bit reserved, but she was not stage frightened. Her two curved willow-leaf eyebrows were still hanging high, her pair of phoenix eyes showed a slight smile, and the corners of her mouth were drawn into a proper arc. An'er supported Daiyu and followed her. beside.

It was the first time for Wanyu to visit the Lin family's ancestral house, so she couldn't help but look around. As soon as she entered Yimen, Wanyu saw a small building not far away, and asked with a smile, "Where is that place? It's so elegant. Daiyu smiled and said, "Ask my sister-in-law, does she feel elegant living in it?"

Wang Xifeng hastily covered her mouth with a smile and said, "At first when I first entered, I thought it was empty like a hole in ice, but after Yu'er arranged it, I found it very delicate. Now that I have lived here for more than a month, guess what?" After finishing speaking, Wang Xifeng was also completely relaxed. Standing down, looking sideways at Daiyu and Wanyu, Wanyu asked puzzled, "How?"

Wang Xifeng chuckled: "It can be seen that Yu'er is a ghostly girl! She tricked me!" When Daiyu heard this, she also covered her mouth and smiled, but she didn't answer. Wanyu couldn't help asking: "What do you say?" how?"

Wang Xifeng glanced at Daiyu and explained: "The small building looks beautiful, but it is ventilated on all sides, and there is no ground heat, so you have to go up and down every day when you go in and out." After speaking, she stood up to the seven-month-old The stomach continued: "Isn't it training our mothers?"

Wan Yu looked at Wang Xifeng's belly, turned around and pinched Dai Yu's cheek, and said, "There is no one like you!" Dai Yu hurriedly explained: "Why do you think so much? Later, I asked my sister-in-law to change places. She herself is not happy, but now she is blaming me."

The three of them chatted and laughed and entered the flower hall, and Daiyu had a chance to ask: "Sister Wan, why is she so fond of Gusu at this time?" Wanyu laughed and said, "You don't know, I will visit Gusu every year at this time, I just thought that it was not easy to disturb you in the filial piety. Now that you are about to leave the filial piety, I came to see you."

Daiyu was curious when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "How did you say that?" Seeing her appearance, Wanyu smiled and said, "Do you still remember what happened at Hanshan Temple back then? That year, my father, brother and I just took a step ahead. That's all. Mother and concubine have to go to Hanshan Temple to offer incense every year, and it happens that father and king go back to Beijing every year to celebrate the New Year, so don't you have to pass by at this time every year?"

Daiyu Fang suddenly realized, but Wang Xifeng asked in puzzlement: "What happened to Hanshan Temple back then?" Before Daiyu could answer, Wanyu smiled and said: "It's a pity that I went first that time, otherwise I could go earlier I know my younger sister." This remark made Wang Xifeng even more puzzled, so she pestered Daiyu to ask carefully, but Daiyu had no choice but to explain in detail.

Hearing that there was another passage, Wang Xifeng joked: "It can be seen that we are destined to meet thousands of miles away! Yu'er is here pretending not to know!" This made Wan Yu's eyes brighten and said: "No wonder I didn't return to give my sister a gift. They are all good things to pick! Especially the set of Longquan Baijun, but my brother and I have both asked for it."

Daiyu blushed at what the two said, and said in a hurry: "I knew my sister liked it, so I took it! Why are you here to tease me now?" After speaking, Daiyu pouted and asked Jin'er to go inside After fetching it, Wan Yu hurriedly stopped Jin'er, and said with a smile to Wang Xifeng: "Look, are you still annoyed?" Then she covered her mouth and laughed.

Seeing Daiyu pouted and frowning looking at her, Wang Xifeng knew that she was really annoyed, so she said with a smile, "Stop laughing at her, she has a thin skin." Seeing this, Wanyu didn't hold back anymore , quickly changed the subject.

"I'm afraid I'll have to stay longer this time when I go back, otherwise I'll be able to visit my sister again when I go back to the south." Upon hearing this, Daiyu asked, "But what happened in Beijing?" Wanyu didn't expect that Daiyu would ask about the accident in Beijing, but she didn't hide it, she lowered her voice and said, "It is said that Uncle and Grandpa Huang are not in good health. Grandfather asked us to stay in Beijing for a while."

When Daiyu heard this, she was startled into a cold sweat, but she didn't show it. Instead, she changed the subject and said: "Sister came by coincidence, I left some lotus leaves and lotus seeds in summer, just soak them in water." Drink, although it is cool to remove the fire, it is bitter after all." Wanyu's eyes lit up when she heard this, she knew that Daiyu must have a new idea.

Seeing Wanyu's appearance, Daiyu knew that she wanted to take it out for her to taste, so she went on to say, "I got a lot of sweet-scented osmanthus in August. I washed it while it was fresh, steamed it and soaked it in honey. We will use it later. The lotus leaves are boiled in water, the lotus seeds are soaked, and the sweet-scented osmanthus juice is mixed in, the taste should be good."

Wang Xifeng was unhappy, and quickly asked: "When I first came, I asked you if you had any good tea to honor my sister-in-law, but you said no, now that you have seen your sister-in-law, you just brought it out? As soon as Daiyu heard this, she laughed and said, "I don't see my sister-in-law being so greedy! Could it be that my brother has lost your food and drink?"

After finishing speaking, she explained like Wang Xifeng: "The sweet-scented osmanthus honey juice doesn't come out in a day or two, how can I say that Sister Wan came by coincidence? It happened to be that I soaked it for a hundred days, and she was sluggish." What can I do?" After speaking, he asked Jin'er to arrange for someone to boil lotus leaf water.

At this time, Wang Xifeng said: "Anyway, you always give me something to eat when you take it out, but here it lacks a little taste. Why don't you go to your hot spring pool and make tea while soaking in hot springs. Is it also beautiful?"

When Wanyu heard that there was a hot spring pool, her eyes lit up and she smiled, "You didn't tell me that! If Sister Feng hadn't told me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have known about it!" At this time, Wanyu and Wang Xifeng became acquainted .

Seeing that both of them had this intention, Daiyu smiled and said, "Why is it so difficult? Let's just go there, there are not many people anyway." As she spoke, she prepared to go to Xianmengju, but Jin'er stopped her. : "My dear girl, please do me a favor, and the county lord will spare the slaves too. Later, Nanny Yang knows to take a bath before dinner, so we should suffer again."

When Wang Xifeng heard this, she pursed her lips and said, "Only you, Madam Yang, have more rules." But she also knew that Madam Yang came from the palace, and she was Daiyu's nurturing mother, and now Daiyu has lost her mother again. Many places have to rely on it, so I don't say much.

Wan Yu raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why didn't Madam Yang hear my sister mention it? I'll take a look when I call." Daiyu was afraid that Wan Yu would not show mercy to Madam Yang, so she hurriedly interrupted.Coincidentally, Nanny Yang came.

Nanny Yang had just entered the door, and before she had time to salute Wan Yu and the others, a person walked out behind Wan Yu, and exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Yang saw you!" Yu and the others were also shocked.

The old mother knew the rules, she quickly turned around and saluted Wan Yu: "Forgive me, my lord, this is an acquaintance in my palace back then, I haven't seen him for many years, I don't want to see you here." Seeing this, Wan Yu turned her head Asked Daiyu, "Is this the Nanny Yang that Jin'er mentioned?" Daiyu got up quickly and said, "This is the nurturing mother that my mother invited for me when she was alive."

After hearing Daiyu's words, the old nanny hurriedly interjected: "Miss Lin is so lucky to be raised by Sister Yang." Seeing that Wanyu's eyes were stern, she hurriedly explained: "Sister Yang was originally from the old lady's harem. Later, when the Empress Dowager died, Sister Yang left the palace, and there was no news for many years, so she was in this Lin residence. If it wasn’t for Sister Yang, I’m afraid I wouldn’t know where she was.”

Wanyu stood up and gave a half-respect after hearing this: "I don't want to be someone close to my ancestors, Wanyu has met Yang Nanny." But Yang Nanny didn't accept it, so she quickly stepped aside and said, "Don't dare to accept it." A gift from the county magistrate. The old empress is the most respectful when she is around." Wan Yu nodded her head with a real smile in her eyes.

Daiyu naturally saw Wanyu's intentions, her heart was warm, and the smile on her face became even sweeter, but Daiyu still said: "Sister, you don't need to be like this, Nanny Yang treats Yu'er very well! Yu'er's mother went Morning, many things are taught by Yang Nanny to Yu'er herself. In Yu'er's heart, Yang Nanny is also her parent's elder."
