[Comprehensive] The Giant of the Red Chamber

Chapter 165 Buddhism is originally a pure place, and there is nothing to do to attract dust

When Mrs. Xing mentioned this, although she was suppressed by Mother Jia, the atmosphere was extremely heavy, and there was a trace of embarrassment in the seemingly lively scene.Especially Zou Shi and Li Wan who were present at the scene had read a lot of books and knew the importance of men and women's defense. For brothers, this matter is not worth taking seriously at all, but for sisters It is a big matter involving reputation, and it must not be sloppy at all.Regardless of Xing's words, it is indeed inappropriate for Jia's mother to ignore her granddaughter. She really loves her granddaughter from the bottom of her heart, and she will not allow things that may ruin her reputation to happen.Unless in order to facilitate this matter, they planned to tie the two together from the beginning, forcing the other party to submit. If this is the case, I will be too sorry for the Lin family.

Not to mention Zou's and Li Wan's thoughts, even Yingchun and Tanchun became a little bit thoughtful after hearing Mrs. Xing's words. Yes, they are grown up. Although they are brothers and sisters, they can't let Baoyu be unmoved. Just sneak into their room, and there is no gossip about disrespect from the girls of Rongguo Mansion, which will affect the future marriage.

Mother Jia's smile also faded a bit. Although she smiled again, it was obviously different from the joyful expectation just now.Among the people present, only Jia Baoyu continued to be happy like a normal person. He didn't hear a word of what he said just now. Maybe he did. He didn't think he was talking about him. After all, it was like what the ancestors said. They are all brothers and sisters of the same family, so they should eat and live together, play together and have fun together.Today, in order to welcome his younger sister Baoyu who came from afar, he specially dressed up very festively. With his round, chubby face like a jade plate, it complements each other perfectly. They are as childish as precious jade.

The embarrassing atmosphere didn't last long, and the bustle outside could be heard from a distance. Along the way from the outer door to the inner door, there were young servants running all the way in, and then there were women and maids all the way at the inner door. When it came to Jia's mother, "Miss Lin is here" "Miss Lin is here", so happy that Jia's mother couldn't sit still, she stood up and wanted to greet her outside the house.

"Old lady, please sit down first. The servant girl is said to be running fast. I'm afraid that sister Lin has just arrived at the inner gate, and she will have to wait for a while." Wang Xifeng smiled and helped Jia Mu to sit down again. Wang Xifeng didn't come too late, after tidying up the yard for Daiyu, she didn't care to take a breather, so she couldn't wait to wait in the main hall, the people would come before the stools were hot.It's just that Daiyu might not be able to hear the iconic laughter in the original book today.

"Very, very, not busy, not busy at the moment." Jia Mu sat down again, but there seemed to be nails on the chair, and she was quite restless.

After changing into a sedan chair at the inner gate, Daiyu, who was carried to the inner courtyard by four stout women, quietly looked at the scenery of the Rongguo Mansion, and silently observed the many maids she saw along the way.

The Rongguo Mansion is really as grand and majestic as the mother said, with servants like a cloud, which is more majestic than the home.Sure enough, it is a wealthy, prosperous and beautiful family. Some decent maids are dressed in rouge, silk and silk, wearing gold and silver, surrounded by jewels and emeralds. They even look like young ladies and wives. The more they go to the inner courtyard, the more dignified they dress up. .One by one stood on both sides of the road, or hid in the porch, or leaned on the pillars, all staring at her with a smile, quite bold, laughing and making trouble, whispering to each other, seeming to judge each other, how lively it is.From a distance, some girls can be seen chasing and playing, playing and cursing.

It's just that although the buildings in the mansion are simple and magnificent, they seem to be old, and they should have not been repaired in time, and they are quite decadent and decayed.As for the maids and women, Daiyu hesitated for a while, and then decided in her heart that she was not abiding by the rules, which was quite different from what her mother said about the strict rules. Presumably, it was because of what Master said yesterday that her grandmother was not energetic and had many children. I couldn't manage it for a while, so I lost some rules.

Especially when I entered the Supreme Palace yesterday, there were also a lot of people in the mansion, and there was a posture of one post at three steps and one post at five steps, but everyone held their breath and strictly abided by their duties, and their actions were silent, let alone raised their heads and stared at them boldly. Looking at the master, all of them lowered their eyebrows and lowered their eyes. Even if they had to face the master, their eyes drooped three points, not daring to look directly, with a respectful and orderly appearance.

The difference in size between the maids and women in the Rongguo Mansion is too big, and it's a little out of place.In fact, those in the Supreme Palace were all trained in the palace, and the best were selected and sent to serve in the Supreme Palace. Even nobles from aristocratic families with strict rules may not be able to meet the standards of servants of the Supreme Palace. The Rongguo Mansion, which is sympathetic to the servants and whose old mothers are more respectable than brothers and sisters, can't keep up with flattery.Originally, the servants of the Rongguo Mansion just didn't understand the rules. In the eyes of Daiyu who didn't know it, it became out of place because of the contrast.For a while, Jia Min had been instilling words like Rongguo Mansion being more valuable and polite than her own, which did not stand out in Daiyu's heart, and she also gained confidence in her heart. She was not so worried that her words and deeds might not be in line with etiquette and offended others. ridicule.

This is a beautiful misunderstanding, but it seems to be good now, at least let Daiyu regain her confidence, no longer belittle herself, no longer cautious, no longer sensitive and overthinking.Of course, Daiyu paid special attention to the rules and etiquette, and it was also inseparable from Jiang Yingrong's hints made in advance yesterday. If there were no such deliberate reminders, Daiyu might not have the thought and effort to notice such things, and even consider proper Inappropriate question.But with the reminder, I unconsciously pay attention to the content of this aspect. The more you pay attention, the easier it is to find problems, not to mention that Rongguo Mansion has a lot of big and small problems. If you think about it carefully, you can pick out one or two or Big or small faults.It has to be said that Jiang Yingrong's hand is really wonderful, it's beyond words.

Daiyu's thought was only for a moment, and she remembered what Jiang Yingrong said to learn to understand her grandmother's hard work. It is really difficult to cover everything in such a big mansion with one or two thousand people. Anyway, I am only here as a guest, so I don't need to take such things to heart.Fortunately, there was a reminder, otherwise, if I saw such a scene, if I felt that the subordinates did not respect me and showed a little trace, wouldn't it just cause my grandmother to worry, that would be a great disrespect.Poor Daiyu, you don't even know that you were fooled by a thousand-year-old fox, and you still thank her, but this is considered a kind fool, and it is a merit to help Daiyu recognize the true colors of some people.

Soon he arrived at Mother Jia's courtyard. This time, Mrs. Xing's companion Wang Shanbao's family greeted her in the courtyard. Zhou Rui's family had already gone to accompany her master, Mrs. Wang.Wang Shanbao's family personally helped Daiyu get off the sedan chair, and shouted to the door covered by the curtain: "Miss Lin is here." Then he helped Daiyu to enter the door.

The maidservants who opened the curtains on both sides opened the curtains early, waiting for Daiyu to enter.As soon as he entered the main hall, he saw a crowd of masters and maidservants, all staring at him intently.Daiyu pretended to be shy, lowered her eyes slightly, and saw an old lady with gray hair and a loving face standing on top of her, she must be her grandmother.Daiyu walked forward quickly, bent down and bowed down: "Yu'er pays homage to grandma."

"Okay, okay, get up quickly, get up quickly." Before Daiyu fully bowed down, Jia Mu helped her up with both hands, and sat down with Daiyu, hugging her in her arms and watching carefully.

"It's been more than ten years now, and I haven't seen your mother for more than ten years. You and your mother are exactly the same when you were young. You really look alike..." Jia's mother had tears in her eyes, and through Daiyu's face it was clear Recalling Jia Min's appearance when he was a child, he was filled with emotion and revealed his true feelings.

This remark also caused Daiyu to shed two tears, and the grandparents and grandchildren hugged their heads and cried, not for the dead Jia Min in the original book, but for the first meeting.Jia Min was still alive, so naturally the other people present would not also cry in memory of the dead. Wang Xifeng saw that it was almost done, and persuaded: "Old Ancestor, it is a happy event for Sister Lin to come today, and we are still waiting for your introduction. What about this beautiful little sister?"

"Yes, yes, don't cry, Yu'er, don't cry either, it's your old age that caused your little family to shed tears for nothing, come and meet your aunt and brothers and sisters." Daiyu The tears stopped in time, but the eyes were full of tears, the cheeks were reddish, and the appearance of panting slightly was more pitiful and cute, which made everyone present feel sorry for seeing him, and couldn't help but praise what a handsome and beautiful person.

"Old ancestor, I thought that the girl in our family was very beautiful. I never thought that there are people like Sister Lin in the world. She doesn't look like a granddaughter, but she looks like her own granddaughter." This is an indirect photo of Jia's mother. His flattery really made Jia's mother laugh heartily.

"You rascal, settled down, you're here to flatter me again, hahaha... This is your Lian's second sister-in-law, known as Feng Lazi, from now on you can just call her Lazi." Mother Jia introduced Wang Xifeng narrowly.

Daiyu stepped forward and bowed, "Second sister-in-law Lian."

"This is your first aunt, and this is your second aunt."

"The first aunt is well, the second aunt is well."

"This is your sister-in-law, Pearl."

"Sister-in-law Zhu."

"This is your sister Yingchun and sister Tanchun." The three girls greeted each other again.

The highlight is at the end, Jia Baoyu.Why is Jia Baoyu so quiet at the moment? It turns out that Daiyu has been staring blankly since Daiyu came in. Everyone in the room seems to have disappeared, leaving only Baoyu and Daiyu. Baoyu is only concerned about Daiyu. Yu's every move, every frown and smile.

"This is Baoyu." Mother Jia pulled Baoyu, who was standing aside, to her side and introduced her.

Daiyu thought to herself, Baoyu's troublesome cousin is here, cheer up, don't make any trouble with him.

"This is..." Before Jia's mother could introduce Daiyu, Jia Baoyu took the lead: "I've seen this younger sister before."

As soon as these words came out, the people in the room inexplicably felt a sense of embarrassment spread. The laughter and laughter just now were like pressing the pause button, and the quietness of the room could be heard.

It was Jia Mu who broke the silence first, and said with a smile: "You are talking nonsense again, how could I have met your sister Lin."

Baoyu's brain became spiritual now, and he smiled and said, "Although I have never seen it before, I only feel that I have a kind face, and I don't know if it is just an old acquaintance."

As soon as I said this, Jiamu was happy, it was fate, and it was definitely fate that couldn't escape: "Okay, okay, we must get along well with your sister Lin in the future, and don't make her angry." Seeing Baoyu's reaction, Jiamu became more and more angry. I feel that my plan can't be wrong, and it is obvious that the atmosphere between the two is different.

In the original book, Daiyu listened to Baoyu's words, and she also wondered that Baoyu was very kind, as if she had seen it somewhere.But now I just care not to offend this irresistible master, and don't pay attention to Baoyu at all. After listening to Baoyu's words, I feel that Jia Baoyu is really talking nonsense. Daiyu, who was [-] years old, already knew about the defense of men and women, and felt that Baoyu's words offended her, and felt a little uncomfortable.It's just that everyone was present, so they didn't show it. They just lowered their heads slightly and stopped paying attention to Jia Baoyu.

But Jia Baoyu didn't let Daiyu go, seeing Daiyu's frowning made her feel a little pitiful, and in a flash of inspiration, she felt that it fit Daiyu's shape, so she continued: "Sister Lin has words. ?”

"There was no word." Before it was time to marry, why did Jia Baoyu ask some weird words?

"May I give my sister a word?" Baoyu was eager to try, thinking that this word would make Daiyu happy, but he didn't know where the confidence came from.

Zou Shi and Li Wan looked at each other awkwardly, but they had no position to stop them.Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng didn't get it right. One of them didn't know many characters, and the other didn't know big characters. Naturally, they don't know much about what is written and what isn't.As for Jia's mother, who knew and had a position to stop her, she didn't say a word, and let Jia Baoyu continue such impolite things as if she hadn't heard.

Daiyu really felt offended now, she is not a clay figurine, she can endure the other party's offense again and again, just like the master said, if you feel upset, you don't have to bear it when you are bullied, just go back, God She will carry it when it collapses.He simply stopped being patient, his little face immediately sank, and he said stiffly: "I will worship Taizhen Yuanjun as my teacher in three days, and the master will personally give the letter at that time, so I don't need to bother my cousin." I don't know the words, first stop Jia Baoyu's rude behavior, if he really makes him show his words, how can he see people in the future.What the master said was not wrong at all, but I didn't know it when I saw it, and I was shocked when I saw it. Jia Baoyu's behavior was more shameless and rude than what the master said.

This has to be said in the original book why Daiyu didn't stop Baoyu from writing the watch. First, she was only seven or eight years old when she first entered the Rongguo Mansion, and she was still a little ignorant. Second, she entered the mansion alone, and her father had another The meaning of asking Gu is that he will live under the fence in the future, how can he just brush off Jia Baoyu's face when he comes up.The most important thing is that Daiyu had a good impression of Jia Baoyu at that time, which is why there is the word "frowning" in the original work.

Well, things are different now.Seeing that Daiyu was really angry, Mother Jia came out to stop her at the right time: "Baoyu must not mess around." Simply because Jia Baoyu's desire to survive at the moment was not bad, seeing that Daiyu was unhappy, he resentfully stopped talking about it. .And Jia's mother's remedial action at this time also made Daiyu feel that "inside and outside" are really different, so she endured the grievance of being offended and comforted herself to care about herself.

The young lady got angry when they came up, and Mrs. Xing and Wang Xifeng, who were watching the battle, were secretly happy. The old lady had a good idea, but there was someone who was holding her back. Maybe Jia Baoyu would be able to play without them.
