Chapter 79
Xue Ke and Xue Baoqin, distant relatives of the Xue family, came to Beijing to seek refuge. It happened that Xing Xiuyan was also taken to the Grand View Garden, and Shi Xiangyun was kept by Jiamu for a long time. It was really lively.
Hengwuyuan happened to be empty, so Sister Feng packed it up and let Xing Xiuyan and Shi Xiangyun live in together.Xue Baoqin and Lin Daiyu hit it off right away, and Jia's mother was very happy to see the childish Xue Baoqin, so she wanted to keep her in the Grand View Garden for a while.
Aunt Xue was very happy about this and happily let her live with Lin Daiyu.
Xue Baoqin only heard Zhou Lang mention a few things about Lin Daiyu, and she already admired Lin Daiyu's talent, but now the two live together, thinking about composing poems every day, and they are so happy that they don't want to leave.
With the company of Xue Baoqin who is cheerful all day long, Lin Daiyu is much less melancholy and more energetic.
Occasionally, Zhou Lang would also visit the Grand View Garden, quietly giving Xue Baoqin and Lin Daiyu some supplements such as bird's nest.
Both Xue Baoqin and Lin Daiyu were orphans, and they didn't have much money. Living in Daguanyuan, they had no way to buy good bird's nests, and they didn't dare to bother to ask the mother-in-law in the kitchen to cook bird's nests for them.
A room full of books, calligraphy and paintings looks full, but they are useless.
On the surface, Lin Daiyu borrowed Xue Baoqin's favor, but in fact, she also knew that Zhou Lang was using Xue Baoqin to give the bird's nest.Xue Baoqin was bouncing around all day long, so how can she make up for it by eating bird's nest every day.
In the past, Lin Daiyu felt that Zhou Lang was vulgar. When he was not married, he took care of the Xue family's business every day. After he was married, he was also busy with his husband's family affairs. He either opened a new shop or calculated the family's daily expenses.She still plays with a few sisters in the garden every day, and plans to start a poetry club, but Zhou Lang doesn't participate anymore.
Many times, Lin Daiyu would have the illusion that Zhou Lang was getting farther and farther away from them, but the medicines and supplements she gave her every month reminded her that Zhou Lang always cared about her.
In this Grand View Garden, everyone laughed and talked about Yan Yan, but few people could really care about her.
Baoyu grew up with her, and they were always together, treating her very well.But he is also very kind to other sisters and girls in this yard.
Today when she was sick, Baoyu came to visit, and tomorrow when a sister or girl was sick, he would also ask her how to stay warm.When surrounded by others, how could Baoyu remember her?
Not to mention how Lin Daiyu treats Jia Baoyu hot and cold, which makes Jia Baoyu puzzled, but Zhou Lang has put in all his efforts for Lin Daiyu's marriage.
First he asked Itachi to investigate a bunch of young talents, and then he screened them carefully, picking out all the careless and big men with a temper.
There were seven or eight people left, and Zhou Lang looked left and right and didn't know what Lin Daiyu would like, so he simply changed his way and asked Itachi to invite someone to visit him.
Set up a few banquet tables, listen to ditties, look at the beautiful scenery, everyone writes poems, draws some pictures, and writes a word no matter how bad it is.
Zhou Lang kept all their works, intending to coax Lin Daiyu to take a look when she came to play in her home.
Among them was Wang Yan, who had never been seen before, but Zhou Lang thought it should be pretty good.Everyone else wrote poems and paintings on paper, but he was the only one who was unrestrained and unrestrained, and wrote a couplet on the two pillars of the pavilion with a pen.If you haven't practiced for a few years, you really don't dare to show off that skill.
Zhou Lang inspected it and was quite satisfied.
In autumn, Zhou Lang originally wanted to host a crab banquet, but he never thought about it. Before he finished writing the post, Sister Feng sent someone to invite her, saying that the village had sent several baskets of big crabs, and invited her to try them out.
Zhou Lang's crabs were naturally not as good as those in the Grand View Garden, so he packed up and went to the Grand View Garden for a meal.
During the banquet, the big guys were bustling with drinking orders, and Zhou Lang also said a few words to join in the fun.
Before leaving, Zhou Lang said to Sister Feng: "I ate crabs today. In a few days, I invite my sisters and sisters to start a poetry club with me. I will introduce new members to you."
Sister Feng said: "That's good, lest they take the money and come to trouble me!"
Everyone was very curious about the new member that Zhou Lang was talking about. Xue Baoqin and Shi Xiangyun kept pestering Zhou Lang and asked who it was. Lin Daiyu sat reservedly with a curious expression on her face. Sanchun also looked at Zhou Lang, waiting for her explain.
Zhou Lang naturally didn't reveal the truth, he only said that he was a new friend who could write poems and paint.
She planned to invite the sisters and sisters from the families of those young talents of the right age to gather together, not only to have a name, but also to make Lin Daiyu meet new friends.
Since we want to start a poetry club, we must have a few decent desks, good brushes, ink, paper and inkstones, and the surrounding scenery must be worthy of it.
Zhou Lang simply changed the whole garden, placed chrysanthemums of various colors, and a few branches of residual lotus in the pond, transplanted pine, bamboo, plum and Suihan Sanyou, and set up some small rocks for the scenery.
Although you can't see it in autumn, it makes people look forward to the scenery in winter.
As soon as Lin Daiyu came to the garden, she really liked it very much, and said repeatedly: "When it snows in winter, I must write a poem in front of the three friends of Suihan, otherwise I will live up to the scenery."
Sanchun, Xue Baoqin, and Shi Xiangyun had all been to Zhou Lang's garden, and they were used to joking together since they were young, and they were not restrained, and they all smiled.
Zhou Lang led a few new girls and introduced them to everyone one by one. They were nothing more than the youngest daughter of the doctor Yushi, the girl of the head of the Imperial Forest Army, the niece of the editor of the Imperial Academy, and so on.
Some girls are shy, some are cheerful, and some are aloof.However, no matter how lonely and arrogant a person is, seeing a group of talented girls in the Rongguo Mansion, he can't help feeling that they are all like gods, no wonder their eldest sister Yuan Chun is favored in the palace.
Introducing Wang Yan's younger sister, Wang Yue, Zhou Lang specially pulled her to the side of the pavilion to introduce, pointed to the couplet and said, "Look, this is written by her brother, both brothers and sisters are full of ink, I will give it to you later." We write a good poem."
Everyone went to look at the pillars of the pavilion, only to hear Lin Daiyu read slowly: "Mid-autumn is the end of the turbulent world, and the jokes of the world are still mid-autumn."
Xichun who was standing by the side smiled slightly, and said: "This person is living in troubled times, but he is still chic."
Wang Yue was a shy girl, she just pursed her lips and smiled: "It's all leisurely work, brother is used to it."
The girls were also conservative, they only said a few words, and then made a fuss to go shopping, so that they could write poems later.Zhou Lang also walked around with them, and just asked the maids to watch and serve snacks and tea at any time.
Zhou Lang pulled Wang Yue to Lin Daiyu's side, and asked her when he had free time, "When did you come to the capital? Where did you come from? What do you like to eat and play on weekdays?"
Wang Yue answered one by one, saying that she was from Yangzhou, everyone was surprised, and said: "Same as Sister Lin, Sister Lin also lived in Yangzhou before."
When the fellow met the fellow, he felt very cordial. Sure enough, Lin Daiyu and Wang Yue recalled the mountains and rivers of Yangzhou together. Sanchun and Xue Baochai also listened around, and became good friends within a few words.
During the winter, Zhou Lang asked everyone to gather together, and Wang Yue became more and more familiar with the girls from Rongguo Mansion.Whenever Lin Daiyu and the girls from Rongguo Mansion were mentioned at home, she would always admire her face, and then sighed to her brother Wang Yan: "It's a pity that you were born in Rongguo Mansion. Such a character was wasted."
Wang Yan just drank, smiled and said nothing.
What does the people of Rongguo Mansion have to do with him?They have long been the thorn in the eyes of the Holy Majesty, but they still haven't restrained themselves. They are extravagant and extravagant every day, and they have won many lawsuits.The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, how good can a girl raised by such a family be?
The author has something to say: I hope everyone will support me a lot, thank you!
