The Rebirth of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

After dinner, everyone talked again. It was dark and early in the twelfth lunar month, and lamps were already lit everywhere. Jia Mu was so tired that she let them all disperse, and the brothers and sisters of the Lin family went back to Lixiangyuan.

People from Jia's mansion lead the way, Lin Daiyu hugs the tree slave, walks side by side with Lin Qu and Lin Qiong, and behind her are Yingge and Chunyu, the maids given by Jia's mother.

The tree slave gradually grew up, and Lin Daiyu's hands became sore after holding it for a while, so she handed it to Lin Xiang to hold her, and she slowly asked Parrot, "Your name is Parrot? Is there anyone else in the family?"

Brother Ying replied: "As for the girl, my family members are all in Jia's mansion, and my parents are in Zhuangzi. There is only one here."

Lin Daiyu nodded and said with a smile: "Since you have become my servant girl, how about I give you a new one?"

"Is there anything good, the girl took it, it's my name."

Lin Daiyu wanted to say "Zicuckoo", but also wanted to say in the poem "Cuckoo crying blood". Can it be changed?

Zijuan's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly agreed with a smile, thinking that these two characters should be her own name compared to "Brother Parrot", and she seemed familiar in a trance.

After Lin Qiong heard this, she turned her head and looked at Zijuan carefully, and thought that this is "Hui Zijuan". She accepted that she would never leave her to take care of Lin Daiyu, and she should treat her better in the future.

Zijuan said with a smile: "To use the words of the second master Bao, the slaves always feel that they have known each other before, and the acquaintance must be a blessing from previous lives."

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "That is also my blessing."

After leaving Jiamu's house, I walked through a long narrow road, turned a corner and walked for a while, and I saw Lixiangyuan. Chunjing came out with a lantern and said with a smile: "Master, second master, third master, young lady, you can count them back." gone."

Lin Daiyu said, "Have you eaten?"

Chunjing said, "I've eaten it, someone brought it here."

After entering the Pear Fragrance Courtyard, the four brothers and sisters looked around. There is a complete front yard and back houses. There are a total of three or ten houses, all of which are small and exquisite, and there is a back door leading to the street.It is said that this is the resting place of Duke Rong in his later years, and it is naturally well built.

The brothers and sisters lived very close to each other, and they were all cleaned up by Chunjing. Most of the furnishings belonged to Jia's family, and his family didn't bring too many miscellaneous things.

After watching, several people were tired after a long day, so they went to sleep separately.Today Lin Daiyu slept with the tree slave first, and after washing, she called the three servant girls together and said: "I used to have four big girls, but now I only bring you two, Chunjing and Chunyu, and your names all start with "" "Chun" character, but today I saw three cousins ​​whose names all contain "Chun", so I have to change it for you. Change the word "Chun" to "Dong", one of you is called Dongjing, and the other is called Dongyu."

The two should be, Dong Yu smiled and said: "It's terrible, it was a warm spring, but suddenly it turned into a cold winter in Basuo."

Lin Daiyu smiled and continued: "This is the maid my grandmother gave me. It's called Zijuan. I will receive a tael of silver as a monthly allowance like the two of you. We will be good sisters in the future. Don't make red faces." Become a big maid.

The three girls agreed, Lin Daiyu smiled and said: "Then let's go, what should I do. The three of you are arranged in a shift. As long as one of you sleeps outside at night, I have nothing to do. I am afraid that the tree slaves will wake up at night. "

The three complied and withdrew.

Dong Jing put Jindun back in the corner, touched the quilt on top of the smoker cage, and it was already warm, so he took it down and made the bed.Put a few pieces of charcoal into the smoker cage, throw another piece of benzoin, put Tang Pozi on the bed, and ask Daiyu if she is going to sleep.

The tree slave yawned with sleepy eyes, Lin Daiyu changed him into pajamas and put him under the quilt to coax him softly, and he fell asleep after a while.

Lin Daiyu is used to sleeping in bed, and it is only the first moment of the day.She picked up a copy of "Drinking Water" and read it. In this era, there are many books that she has never seen in her previous life, such as this book in her hand. The writing is no worse than that of everyone in the Song Dynasty. Lin Daiyu didn't want to put it down when she was holding it in her hand.

Just seeing the sentence "One couple for one lifetime, two places for teaching. Lovesickness and not blind date, who is the spring for?", couldn't help being fascinated, Dong Jing said: "Girl, someone is here to see you." hear.

Dong Jing led a person in. Lin Daiyu was startled when she heard the footsteps, she woke up, put down her book, and said with a smile, "Please sit down. Who is your sister?" The skirt on the feet, the appearance is only upright and stable, and the smile on his face is the attacker in Jia Baoyu's room.

"The servant girl is Xiren, the girl in the second master Bao's house."

Lin Daiyu brushed her loose hair, asked Dongjing to give her a bun for sleeping, and said to Xiren with a smile, "Sister Xiren, I just came here, many people don't know me, don't be surprised."

Xiren hurriedly said he didn't dare, looked at Lin Daiyu for a while, and said with a smile: "Everyone says that Miss Lin from Yangzhou is a beauty, and she compares all the girls in our family. She is really good. It's strange that Baoyu keeps talking. I read it even when I fell asleep."

Lin Daiyu gradually retracted her smile and said, "Really."

Attacker said: "Miss don't know, our Baoyu is a 'devil king of the world', usually jokes with the girls, sometimes sweet talk, sometimes crazy and stupid. Even if I am a girl in his room, I don't dare to provoke her. Just deal with him."

"I remember, thank you sister Xiren for reminding me."

"I don't dare to take it seriously, I'm just idle, just say it casually, girl, don't laugh at me for being troublesome."

"Of course not, I know sister Xiren is doing it for my own good."

Xiren didn't sit for long, said "I dare not disturb the girl's rest", and then returned.

Lin Daiyu had a busy day and felt a little headache. She looked at the small clock on the dressing table in the room, it was already a quarter, so she went to change into her pajamas and go to bed.

Dongyu opened the curtain and came in, angrily said: "I don't even care who she is, she's just a slave, the girl calls her elder sister, how dare she take it! Bah, you're shameless, you need her to tell you what to do!" "

Dong Jing was helpless, and said softly: "You should keep your voice down, the third master is asleep, and it's time to make trouble again when you wake up."

Dong Yu stuck out her tongue and smiled.

Zijuan was a little at a loss, she and Xiren were both second-class girls in Jiamu's house, they were very good sisters, Dongyu's words sounded like scolding herself to her.

Dong Jing waited for Lin Daiyu to fall asleep, turned off the light in the inner room, and without a word took Dong Jing and Zijuan out to the house where the three of them lived.Dong Jing first reprimanded Dong Yu: "What do you do when you say unhappy things at night? Can you make the girl happy or make you happy when you say it? It's useless to provoke idleness, and I don't care about your mouth."

Dongyu stomped her feet and said, "Chunjing, you still speak for her, you see how unruly she is!"

Dong Jing said: "That's also a girl from someone else's family, and has nothing to do with us. Before the girl says anything, you start yelling." She paused, and then said: "I know that this person is big-hearted and rampant, so I will talk about it in the future." Just stay away and stop her from getting in the girl's eyes."

Dongyu was convinced.

Dong Jing said again: "I heard from the girl in this mansion today that the attacker in Master Bao's house was also served by the old lady's house, and he must have some sisterhood with Sister Zijuan. Just now, Dong Yu said nothing. But the heart is good, don't take it to heart."

Zijuan's face was still hot, she just shook her head, for fear of saying something wrong.

Dong Yu said: "If you don't agree with what I said, just shout it out and let everyone know. I apologize to you when I was wrong. If you are wrong, I don't blame you. Let's not hide anything. It’s all about this fate.”

Zijuan could only say: "Sister Xiren is usually a good person, if something is wrong, I will apologize to the two sisters on her behalf."

Dongyu curled her lips and said, "You stupid person, when someone smiles at you on the surface, you'll break your heart and lungs? You don't know that this is a kind-hearted person who will sell you one day, and you will count the money for her instead!" See Zi Juan didn't believe it, so she explained to her carefully: "Look at her, the girl asked her to sit down, and she sat down. Here it is; what did you say to make the girl stay away from her Baoyu? I didn't know that Bao Erye belonged to her family. She hasn't said anything about her thoughts, and she behaves like a person in Bao Erye's house. This is frivolous Look, if it's our family's girl, how can masters and young masters tolerate her!"

Thinking about the situation just now, Zijuan couldn't refute it. She believed it three points in her heart, and only said that she understood.

Dong Jing said: "Sister Zijuan, we will serve the girl together in the future. We are all sisters, so we won't hide it from you. Although Dong Yu speaks straightforwardly, he understands in his heart that the attacking girl has a big heart. You will treat her in the future. be careful."

The three of them chatted for a while, and then they were like close little sisters, and they were called by their first names according to their ages.Dong Jing finally said: "Okay, there must be a vigil in the girl's room at night, so let's stop here today. Zijuan and I will guard for three days first, and I will teach you how to do it, Dong Yu, go to sleep. "

Dongyu cheered immediately, and went to wash with hot water in a short time, while Dongjing and Zijuan went to watch the night without mentioning it.
