Chapter 679 Jia Heng: ... Didn't you see that you were already angry with him before?
In the evening, in the Rongqing hall, the hairpin skirt and the jacket are beautiful, and there is a sound of joking and laughing from time to time, which is the voice of Sister Feng.
Jia Mu sat on the Arhat bed, laughing non-stop when she was teased by Sister Feng, and on the embroidered pier at the bottom, sat Mrs. Wang, Aunt Xue and others, and Li Wan, Yingchun, Tanchun, Xiangyun, Dai Jade as a companion, in addition to Baoyu.
Because Shi Ding and his wife came to visit at noon, Baoyu had two glasses of wine, her cheeks were flushed, and her head was full of sweat. Jia Mu said that it would be easy to get heat stroke after eating wine and going back to school in hot weather, so she asked Baoyu to rest at home for two days.
Baoyu sat on the embroidered pier at the lower end, pestering Daiyu to talk, and Xiangyun was talking and laughing beside her.
Daiyu didn't ignore her. As usual, she sometimes said witty words and sometimes smiled with her lips pursed. Seeing Baoyu on the surface, there was no difference.
After all, women are born actors. The more beautiful a woman is, the better her acting skills are. If she really wants to act, she can repair the faucet every day.
"Old lady, the uncle is here." At this moment, a nun entered the hall and said with a smile, and the laughter in Rongqing hall also stopped.
While talking, I saw a young man in Shu brocade robe with bamboo green leaf pattern, tall and tall, appearing in front of everyone.
"Brother Heng is here." Mother Jia smiled, looking at the young man, she couldn't help feeling a little surprised.
Everyone in the family knew that Jia Heng was a busy person, so he went to Jinyi Mansion to ask questions in the morning.
Jia Heng sat down and explained: "Come here to talk to the old lady about something."
Mother Jia was even more surprised when she heard this, she smiled and asked, "What's the matter?"
Everyone also stopped talking and laughing, and looked at the boy.
Jia Heng put down the teacup, looked up at Daiyu, and said, "Old lady, Sister Lin has been in Beijing for a while, and she has been separated from Uncle Lin, father and daughter are not allowed to see each other, it is really hard, after a few days God, I was ordered by the emperor to go to Yangzhou for business, and I plan to bring my sister Lin to Yangzhou to reunite with Uncle Lin's father and daughter, and then go to Gusu to pay homage to my aunt."
As soon as these words came out, Jia Mu was slightly startled, but everyone in Rongqing Hall was stunned, and they all looked at Daiyu.
Xiangyun was surprised and said, "Sister Lin is going back to Yangzhou?"
Tan Chun's bright eyes sparkled, and he guessed: "The last time Brother Heng was fighting the flood in Huai'an Mansion, he went to Yangzhou to transfer troops. I heard that he also saw Uncle. I think Uncle misses Sister Lin."
And Baoyu's full moon face was filled with a smile, which froze instantly on his face, dumbfounded and in a trance.
Sister Lin is leaving?Going back to Yangzhou, never come back?
Baoyu's eyes were straight, and it seemed that she was about to suffer from hysteria again. It was just because everyone was focusing on Daiyu's return to Yangzhou, and for a while, no one cared.
In fact, as Daiyu grows older and enters the age of cardamom, the girl with a peerless appearance has half or six parts of the charm of a Xiaoxiang concubine, just like a hibiscus swaying in the wind, with a frown and a smile, bright and moving.
As the original book said, it has gradually reached the point where Xue Pan will collapse on the spot just by looking at it.If it is said that Baoyu used to be a playmate of his childhood sweetheart, and his heart towards Daiyu was only vaguely close to Daiyu since he was a child, then Baoyu, who is now a human being, is undoubtedly bound by love and affection.
In the original novel without Jia Heng, the second year of Baochai's arrival is precisely the period of rapid development of Baodai's love. In the end, they fall in love with each other and are difficult to separate, but... now it is just Baoyu's unilateral covetousness.
When Jia Mu heard the words, she looked down at Daiyu who raised her bright starry eyes, her eyebrows were clear, and she was about to say something, and said softly: "Brother Heng, this journey is going back and forth for thousands of miles, and Yu'er's body is weak. .”
For some reason, Mother Jia, who was knocking on Baodai's CP, subconsciously didn't want Daiyu to go back, but what Jia Heng said was reasonable. Daiyu came to Shenjing for so many years, and her relatives were separated. Now, father and daughter should be reunited. Regardless of these, Daiyu, who has grown into a slim girl, went back to her ancestral home to worship her deceased mother. Isn't it the most affectionate and filial piety?
Jia Heng said: "Don't worry, old lady, this journey is by boat, and the road is smooth and tight. Besides, I originally asked Xiren to serve Sister Lin and go south together."
As he spoke, he glanced at Daiyu, under the determined eyebrows, his clear eyes were warm and flickering, because he had mentioned the matter of going south with Daiyu before, so there was a wink in his eyes.
Under Dai Yu's smoldering eyebrows, those bright starry eyes flickered, caught the fleeting look, her heart jumped, her breathing was a little short, she turned to look at Jia Mu with her bright eyes, and said softly Said: "Grandmother, I came to Shenjing when I was six or seven years old, and I was separated from my father for many years. I only knew the current situation when Hongyan passed on a letter. Since years ago, my father's health has not been very good. As a woman, I can't come to serve him. Tangyao, I really feel uneasy."
Speaking of this, thinking of his family background, he sighed softly, his eye circles were reddish, and he choked up and said: "I have grown up now, and I also want to visit my mother."
As soon as these words came out, there was a sense of sadness in everyone's hearts. So far, it is almost impossible for Jiamu to refuse. Daiyu has been in Beijing for five or six years since she was six or seven years old. Growing up as a cardamom girl, she should go to pay homage to her dead mother no matter what.
Looking at this scene, Jia Heng was a little absent-minded, and sighed softly in his heart.
Therefore, he did not agree with Jia Mu's actions. Except for Lin Ruhai's death, Daiyu followed Jia Lian to Yangzhou for the funeral. After that, the scope of activities was completely limited to Jia's mansion and the Grand View Garden. To put it bluntly, she was like Baoyu's child bride Generally speaking, Daiyu whose parents died, the purpose of her existence was to fall in love with Baoyu, and then she died with tears, how sad?
Mother Jia was also touched by Daiyu's words, her eyes were moist, tears flowed freely, she opened her arms, and whispered, "Yu'er, my poor Yu'er."
"Grandmother." Daiyu called softly, and she was so close that she was held in her arms by Jiamu.
When everyone saw this scene, they also sighed with emotion, without him, Daiyu's words just now were truly like the words of a grown-up girl who lost her mother when she was young.
Because Jia Heng is here, originally she was just a girl who felt sorry for herself because of her mother's early death. When she really expressed her thoughts of missing her deceased mother, she was moved by the feeling of "I am already strong, and I should return to my hometown to serve my father and sacrifice my mother".
Seeing this scene, Aunt Xue also picked up her handkerchief and wiped her tears, looking at Daiyu.
Jia Heng looked at Daiyu quietly, and suddenly a poem came to his mind, although it didn't fit the occasion... There is a girl in my family who is just growing up.
Mother Jia gently stroked Daiyu's back, comforted Daiyu, and sighed: "Yu'er, I didn't let you go back in the past. Firstly, I thought you were still young, and secondly, I was worried that you would be too sad when you see things and think about others." , now that you have the intention of going home to visit, it happens that brother Heng is also going to Yangzhou, so go home and meet your father, and then go to Gusu to visit your mother."
After all, Jia Min is the only daughter of Jia's mother, so she has weight deep in her heart.
Daiyu's teary eyes were hazy, and she gave a soft "hmm", tears shed silently from her snow-cold jade face.
How many years has she not seen her father, and how many years has she not seen her mother?If it wasn't for Brother Heng, who knows when he will be reunited with his father?
Mother Jia comforted Daiyu, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, raised her old eyes, and said: "Brother Heng, Yu'er has never traveled far, so take care of her on the way."
"Don't worry, old lady, I will take good care of her." Jia Heng nodded, thought for a while, and said seriously: "However, if the old lady is worried, why not lend me a person to take better care of sister Lin on the way living."
Baoyu's eyes moved slightly, his heart skipped a beat, his mouth opened, and he hesitated to speak. If he went to Yangzhou, he would be able to take good care of Sister Lin on the way.
Jia Mu was puzzled for a moment, and asked, "Which one do you want Brother Heng to borrow?"
The others also looked at the young man, their eyes unclear.
Jia Heng smiled and said: "The mandarin ducks around the old lady have always been careful, I want her to send Sister Lin to Yangzhou together, and add a waiter Xiren to take care of Sister Lin." Thoughtful and appropriate."
Sister Feng Danfeng rolled her eyes, smiled and said: "Old lady, I said that the old lady can take care of people, and Yuanyang is asking her to serve sister Lin."
As the young woman Huaxin spoke, she glanced at the boy's side face, clenched the handkerchief lightly, thinking in her eyes, and thought to herself, this is a mandarin duck, and she took the opportunity to ask for it?Brother Heng's abacus has been heard by Ningguo Mansion.
Mother Jia was taken aback for a moment, and after listening to what Sister Feng said, she smiled and said, "Brother Heng is good at picking people. Yuanyang is a good-looking and obedient child, and he is the best around me. I'm leaving her now, but I don't know who I am." I can’t eat well, and I can’t sleep well.”
He also understands somewhat in his heart, although he originally intended to give it to Brother Heng, but he still has to wait two or three years, and now he wants it, he is really reluctant.
Jia Heng laughed and said: "The old lady misunderstood, she just went to Yangzhou, and came back in a month or two. When she came back, she would still serve her in front of the old lady."
When Jia Mu heard this, she smiled and said, "It's rare for Brother Heng to speak once, Yuanyang."
The mandarin duck was helping Jia Mu to hold her shoulders, and the white and greasy cheeks of the duck's face blushed a little, and said in a pretty voice: "Old lady, please tell me."
Jia Mu smiled and said, "You heard Brother Heng's words just now, pack up and go to Yangzhou with Brother Heng."
Yuanyang's eyes flickered, and she pursed her pink lips, but she didn't respond immediately, instead she said with a troubled expression: "The old lady can't lack of service here."
"I'm not short of people here. You just have to go. I don't feel at ease when Yu'er is outside." Seeing this, Jia's mother had a smile on her old face, and she felt a lot of reluctance in her heart. There is indeed no one around me who is more considerate and reliable than Yuanyang.
"Yeah." Yuanyang responded lightly, feeling somewhat delighted in his heart.
It's not that the girl is tired of serving Jia Mu's daily life, but that she was moved by Jia Heng's words about visiting relatives, and also attracted by Xiren's description of the beautiful scene of going south.
"Brother Heng, Yu'er has never traveled far. When you are on the road, you must pay attention to her weak bones. Don't let her catch a cold. It is the wind." Jia Mu looked at Jia Heng and told her.
It can be said that Daiyu's departure from the mansion is a major event, because since she came to Beijing at the age of six, she has been raised under Jia Mu's knees, and then she has grown into a beautiful and beautiful girl, but now she has to leave home. It needs to be prepared several days in advance.
Jia Heng said: "Don't worry, old lady, I will take good care of Sister Lin."
Said, looked at Daiyu, and nodded at her.
Daiyu's tear-stained face was obviously more miserable, she pursed her cherry lips, her starry eyes twinkled, and said softly, "Brother Laoheng is here."
No one doubted it, just like in the original book, no one would think about Jia Lian, a cousin who already had a family, and brought Daiyu south to the funeral.
After that, Mother Jia told Jia Heng a few more words until the night fell, and Jia Heng didn't stay any longer and left.
When I returned to Ningguo Mansion, it was already dusk, the lights were brightly lit, and the sound of mahjong was heard. A few Yingying Yanyan gathered around a table, and asked the maid to clean up the mahjong. Basin, serving Qin Keqing and You Shi sisters, while Baochai washed his hands.
"Husband, where did you come back from?" Qin Keqing wiped her hands with a towel, and asked, looking at the young man who came in from the outside with her charming eyes under her beautiful eyebrows.
Baochai stared at the slender young man in Sujin robes, because he left food, Baochai did not leave.
"I'm going to the old lady's place." Jia Heng finished his narration of the journey south to Yangzhou, and explained: "It will only take three to five days to leave."
Qin Keqing frowned, squeezed her handkerchief, and asked, "Why is my husband going south again?"
Jia Heng briefly explained the key points of the salt work, and said: "There is nothing to do in Beijing, so go early and return early."
Qin Keqing thought about it for a while, and didn't ask any further questions, and said, "My husband wants to take Sister Lin to Yangzhou, did the old lady agree?"
Jia Heng nodded, and said: "Yes, I have been in the house for so many years, so I should go back to see my uncle."
At this moment, Baochai suddenly heard that Jia Heng was going to Yangzhou, she was obviously a little surprised, and asked: "Brother Heng wants to go to Yangzhou with Xiaoer?"
Jia Heng turned his eyes to look at Baochai, and said softly: "The last time I went to Yangzhou to see my uncle, my uncle was always talking about Sister Lin, and this time I just let her reunite with Uncle Lin."
Baochai nodded her head, feeling emotion on her plump, white and greasy face, and said softly: "Shouer should go back and see Uncle Lin."
This is human relations and filial piety. How can there be someone who lives in grandma's house for several years and doesn't go back to visit the old father and visit the grave of the dead mother when there is an opportunity?No one can tell.
Third Sister You, who was sitting not far away, tilted her head and listened to the conversation of several people, her eyebrows were condensed, and there was a trace of anxiety on her beautiful and beautiful face. The uncle just came back not long ago, and he is leaving again?What about her?
At this time, several people sat down and began to eat food.
"Husband, at noon, I heard from the old lady that the Empress Dowager's birth will be the day after tomorrow, and the wives of each family will enter the palace to celebrate the Queen Mother's birth. Husband asked me what gift I should prepare." Qin Keqing put down her chopsticks and asked.
This is Madam Gaoming's usual social banquet, so Qin Keqing said so.
A few people listened to the couple's conversation, and didn't interrupt, but they had different thoughts, and ordered the wife to be invited to the palace to chat with the queen mother, empress, and princess.
Jia Heng stared at Qin Keqing and asked, "What did the old lady say?"
Before, Jinyang didn't tell him, maybe he forgot, maybe he will tell him next time.
Qin Keqing said softly: "The old lady said that gold, silver and jewelry are too vulgar, and asked me to pick some wild ginseng and some rare utensils outside to play with in the warehouse. Woolen cloth."
Jia Heng pondered for a moment, looked up at the three beautiful girls with snow-skinned skin, and said, "Actually, I don't know what to give. You guys are smart, why don't you make up your mind together?"
Qin Keqing glanced at Jia Heng reproachfully, and thought, since you don't know, you can ask the eldest princess.
It's just that these words are slandered in my heart, and I definitely won't say them out of my mouth.
Baochai said softly: "The main reason is that Sister Qin doesn't know what the Empress Dowager likes. Brother Heng knows more people, so maybe he can ask someone who knows."
Jia Heng glanced at Xue and Qin, who seemed to be allies, and said with a smile: "Then I can find someone to ask?"
Jinyang, what did your mother like when she was born?I asked my daughter-in-law to prepare a copy, um, why are you so owed?
After the few people were eating, Third Sister You put down the teacup, looked at the young man opposite with her beautiful eyes, and said with a sweet smile: "Master, I have already written a lot of volumes in the volume of Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, when will you read it?" , the ax is right and the ax is right."
Hearing this, Jia Heng first took a look at Qin Keqing who lowered his head and scooped up a bowl of egg custard with a spoon, and handed it to Qin Keqing gracefully, his face paused, and he hesitated to speak.
"Third Sister's book, I reviewed it before, and the writing is not bad." Seeing her husband looking at her first, Qin Keqing took the handkerchief and gently wiped her pink lips. With a smile, he said softly.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, staring at Third Sister You, whose eyes were as bright as water, and said softly: "These two days are quite busy, and I have to go to my father-in-law's house tomorrow, so let's wait for two days."
I still try to give myself a holiday today, besides, I need to spend more time with Keqing at night, didn't I see that I was already angry with him before?
Under Qin Keqing's arched eyebrows, her watery eyes fluttered with joy and satisfaction, she picked up a chopstick with leeks and eggs, and said softly, "Husband, try this."
"Well, this is delicious." Jia Heng said softly, thanked him, and lowered his head to eat the food.
Third Sister You's jade cheeks were reddish, she hung her head down and ate the food, and said nothing else.
No matter how hot-tempered he is, when he speaks such proactive words in front of a group of "playing friends", he will inevitably feel a little shy in his heart.
Listening to the conversation of the three, Baochai saw a trace of suspicion in her moist almond eyes. With the exquisite clarity of a girl, she faintly felt that there was something else, but she couldn't understand it after careful consideration.
Everyone present, except Qin Keqing, knew the details, but Baochai and Second Sister You didn't know what riddle they were playing.
At the end of this chapter, there are actually [-] words, because some foreshadowing and clues have not been sorted out, so I will update it the next day.
