Chapter 13 Courage
Rongguo Mansion, Rongqing Hall.
Inside the Bisha cupboard in Dongnuang Pavilion.
Behind the rosewood bird-patterned floor-to-ceiling screen, a half-year-old boy wears a collar around his neck, a precious jade, a name lock, and an amulet. His face is like a full moon, and his eyebrows are affectionate. He is lying next to the cloud-patterned begonia fragrance. There is no golden lock in sight.
year girl writing.
In addition to the four treasures of the study and the brush holders, there is also a gilt suanni incense burner and a wood-fired beauty vase on the table.
On a pair of glazed blue and white lamp stands, two large sticks of butter wax illuminate the interior of the Bisa cabinet.
Not long after, the girl finished writing and raised her face, revealing a face that was extremely charming and beautiful.
The eyebrows look like they are frowning but not frowning, and the eyes look like they are happy but not joyful. The expression is full of sorrow, which is a disease of the whole body.
Tears a little, panting slightly. Silence is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and action is like a weak willow supporting the wind.
Those starry eyes are like the mist of a winter spring, but they are also smart and beautiful.
The young man was none other than Jia Baoyu. Just looking into the girl's eyes, he felt that he was full of beauty and refreshed.
He smiled and said: "Sister Lin's handwriting is really good! Strange Taoists say that her handwriting is just like the person she is!"
The girl is the granddaughter of Rongguo Mansion, Daiyu, the daughter of Lin Ruhai, the Yangzhou salt censor, and Jia Min, the beloved daughter of Rongguo Mansion.
It has been five years since Daiyu came to Beijing at the age of six.
When he was young, he and Baoyu ate and lived together in the Bisha Cupboard of Rongqing Hall. They grew up together. The relationship between cousins is closer than other sisters.
However, since the Xue family came to Beijing to settle in the Jia family last year, and Baoyu's daughter Baochai, who is related to Baoyu as a cousin, came, Baoyu and Baochai also became close, but in the end, Daiyu, whom they grew up with, was the most important.
That’s it…
Daiyu has been frail and sick since she was a child, and has a delicate and sensitive mind. She often sheds tears. At first, everyone in the Jia family was quite nervous, but as time went by, they became accustomed to it.
When Daiyu grew up, she only cried alone at night and rarely in front of others...
Hearing Jia Baoyu's words, she only turned her eyes sideways in annoyance and said in a voice like beads falling on a jade plate: "You will write it? I would like to see if your handwriting is like your person."
Jia Baoyu laughed, but he was not humble. He took the handkerchief from the maid Zijuan and washed his hands, and said with a smile: "Then you can take a look!"
After that, he wrote down the eight characters "beautiful bones and abundant spirit, handsome and elegant".
When Daiyu saw this, she couldn't help but laugh and covered her mouth with her handkerchief and said with a smile: "How shameless! Baoyu, I heard that you have been studying in recent days. Could it be that you are not studying the saints' articles, but people's faces?"
The maid Zijuan who was serving at the side couldn't help laughing.
Jia Baoyu, however, was not annoyed and explained with a smile: "What I am writing about is not me, but an elegant person I have recently met."
A sneer appeared on Daiyu's lips and she said, "What kind of good people can you meet outside?"
Jia Baoyu said seriously: "It's different this time. To be honest, you are still his aunt."
Hearing this, Daiyu said thoughtfully: "What you said, I remembered that I had vaguely heard someone mention it in the past two days. There was a person going out from Dongfu. It seemed that there was something different... By the way, you and Bao
Is it because of this person that my sister and her brother go to school frequently?"
Jia Baoyu touched his palm and laughed and said: "Even Sister Lin has heard about it? I said that a person like Brother Qiang with a girl-like character will never bury Wuming. However, it turns out that he is not
In this way, he is just like Brother Rong, fooling around all day long. Somehow, he seems to be a different person now..." The words were stalled at this point, and he felt that he vaguely knew what kind of stimulation Jia Qiang had received, so
After maintaining his innocence, he inevitably changed, and I admired him even more.
Of course, the main reason is because Jia Qiangsheng is so good, otherwise he wouldn't pay much attention to it.
What does it have to do with others? It’s just caught his eye...
After a pause, Jia Baoyu said again: "Feng Ziying of General Shenwu's Mansion is the young master Ren Xia I told you about before. Even he praised Brother Qiang for being different from what he used to be. It used to be a fake romance, but now he has
It's quite romantic. And Qiguan..."
Daiyu didn't care about what was said before. She was just an orphan, so how could she be in the mood to care about the affairs of men outside. However, when she suddenly heard the word "Qiguan", her eyebrows furrowed slightly.
He also looked at Jia Baoyu and threatened: "Uncle knows, watch your skin carefully!"
Jia Baoyu quickly bowed, smiled and begged, "Good sister, please don't betray me! That official Qi is a serious person, and it's interesting to say that Sister Lin looks a bit like Brother Qiang before."
Saying this, Daiyu became curious and said: "He looks a bit like me? Are you bumping into a guest? Please ask your godmother, Ma Daopo, to come and take a look at it for you."
Jia Baoyu glared at her angrily, told her everything about today's restaurant, and finally said with a smile: "I'm not lying, right? People like Qi Guan like Brother Qiang's demeanor very much. But Brother Qiang doesn't look like that.
Knowing the elegance of this place, I would reject people from thousands of miles away. But Qiguan is a wonderful person and took the initiative to resolve the embarrassment. Looking back, I would like to advise Brother Qiang again not to spoil people's elegance like this."
While he was talking, he suddenly saw a tall girl with a slender figure, a long face, and a silver-red gauze skirt walking over. She smiled at Jia Baoyu and said, "Madam, please come over." Then she said to Daiyu, "Miss, today.
Are you feeling better?"
This eldest girl was a girl whom both Jia Mu and Mrs. Wang trusted. Her name was Xiren, and she followed Jia Baoyu to serve her personally.
When Daiyu heard this, she smiled casually and said, "What can happen to me? This is true for most of the year. I worry about you worrying about it."
Jia Baoyu got up regretfully, but was still reluctant to leave. He said to Daiyu, "Good sister, remember to take the Ginseng Yangrong Pills and don't cry at night. It's not worth ruining your body by crying."
Daiyu looked at him for a while, nodded and said, "I understand, you can go ahead."
Jia Baoyu just turned around and left...
…
Ningguo Mansion, Tianxiang Tower.
The furnishings here are actually more magnificent than those in the Xifu.
Although in the Rongguo Mansion in the west, except for Jia Yuan, the founder of the country, the second generation was equally ambitious and made great achievements and still took the position of Duke.
But after all, the Ning Mansion is the long-term resident, so if the West Mansion has the East Mansion, it can often get a share of the rewards.
In addition, since Duke Hua of Dai Dynasty, the Ning Mansion has been luxurious. After generations of accumulation, the splendor of this Ning Guo Mansion is ranked among the many noble residences of princes in Beijing.
As for Xifu, it was only after the death of Daishan Gong more than ten years ago that it gradually became luxurious.
On the second floor of Tianxiang Building, there is a green and Chinese ink jade bed placed in the southwest corner. Even on a hot day, you can feel cool when lying on it.
To the north, there is a purple lacquered begonia-style long incense table with gold landscape and water patterns. On the long table are placed a bronze incense burner with plum blossoms, three breasts and feet, Longquan celadon wine pots and cups, a small plate with lotus petals and a small blue and white porcelain wine jar. There is also a side
Purple stone inkstone, a piece of sapphire animal head paperweight, a row of Huying sheep hair and a small bowl with lotus petals and chicken hearts.
Jia Zhen only wore a purple-red brocade shirt, sat on a rose chair, dipped a goat hair in ink, and carefully sketched.
Opposite to Concubine Xiang, there is a beauty sitting on the couch. She is wearing a rain silk brocade Li Xiaoshu gauze dress, and Concubine Yang's plain silk skirt underneath. Her eyebrows are picturesque, and her spring eyes are full of shyness and uneasiness...
…
After a long time, Jia Zhenfang put away her pen. Her usually stern gaze was now full of admiration and praise, and she sighed: "Although I try my best, I can't paint the beauty of my daughter-in-law."
After that, he invited his daughter-in-law, Qin, and said, "Come, come, let me see how my father's painting goes."
Qin's heart dropped when she heard this, but she did not dare to disobey her father-in-law's order, and slowly stepped forward, with a graceful figure and light eyes.
When the crabapples started to fragrant, I looked up and became crazy.
Is she the peerless beauty in the painting?
The Fairy of Zongyue Palace is nothing more than that...
…
Outside Tianxiang Tower, at the corner of the west corridor, Jia Rong looked at the two figures getting closer and closer reflected on the window screen on the second floor, biting her lips tightly, her eyes full of crazy violence.
From ancient times to the present, which man can be subjected to such shame and humiliation?!
Even if Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty wanted to seize Yang Yuhuan, he would pretend to let Yang Yuhuan become a monk for a few years first.
But let him go upstairs to catch the traitor, even if you give him ten more courage, he won't dare.
However, he originally thought that he would not have the courage to resist his father's behavior in this life, but now...
He remembered Jia Qiang's act of kicking his father over and running out of Ningguo Mansion!
Thinking of this, Jia Rong became more courageous. She glanced hard at the second floor of Tianxiang Building, then turned around and headed west...
