Chapter 127: Shocking
The news of Biying secretly sending money still reached Daiyu's ears.Daiyu thought about it again and again, and called Xueyan: "Let's save some money. The travel on the road we prepared last time was useless, and there is still some surplus. You can take 50 taels and send it to Mrs. An." If you ask, just say it’s our food money, please ask her to accept it. Let’s make peace of mind and plan slowly in the future.”
Xueyan thought that her daughter was very considerate, but at least she was a family with the same surname, so why should they be so carefully divided? But she knew Daiyu's temperament, so she had no choice but to let her go.Sure enough, I found a silver ticket and came all the way here.Biying was chatting and joking in front of An Shi, but she saw Xueyan coming.He answered Daiyu's words first, and then took out the bank note.
Biying hurriedly said: "Sister, what is she doing, our family does not lack this now, please don't do this, it will make our wife look bad."
But An Shi reached out to take the bank note, and said with a cold face: "Children don't understand anything. If you are as sensible as your sister, I won't worry about it."
Seeing her mother's actions, Biying was puzzled, opened her mouth wide, and said in surprise, "Is Madam going to accept sister's money?"
Anshi didn't speak, and still pretended nothing had happened.Daughter Yingbi was not happy, and walked away angrily.
An Shi gritted her teeth and cursed: "I gave birth to a good daughter, but she is so ignorant. Now my arms can turn outward."
Xue Yan was naturally upset when she heard this, and she thought that if the girl knew about it, she would not be able to secretly wipe her tears again.Why bother? Those who ran all the way just said they were going home, but unexpectedly they got angry.It's better to live in the palace, at least the prince will treat them sincerely.
Xueyan came back here sullenly, and Daiyu was sitting by the window, burying her head in drawing a pattern, and the room was very quiet.Daiyu heard the footsteps, looked back at Xueyan, and asked: "Will you send it away?"
Xueyan nodded.
Daiyu didn't say anything, and continued to draw patterns.
Xueyan looked at the side for a while, and asked: "Miss has not used needlework for a long time, do you want to do it yourself now? After careful work, don't we do the same work?"
Daiyu remained silent and continued to describe with her head bowed.Xueyan sat on the twig in a daze, her eyes stared straight, she was still annoyed by An's attitude just now, but she didn't dare to say anything.
Daiyu is such a clever person, but what she thinks is that if her aunt accepts the money, the following things will be easier to handle.I can't go away for a while, and I am asking for help, how can I keep my head down.Maybe it was because of a visit to the palace and lived outside for a few years, or maybe it was because he was getting older and learned a lot about the world, unlike when he lived in Jia's mansion.At that time, everyone in the whole family praised Sister Bao how to be a human being. She had never thought about this before, but now she has to think about it.
Maybe it's because I have controlled my head for a long time, my neck is a little sore, and my eyes are starting to feel astringent.Daiyu finished the last stroke lightly, and planned to go back for a walk.
Xueyan and others stayed in the house and did not follow.Daiyu went out of the room, stood under the tall ginkgo tree for a while, and then went to Biying's room to talk to her.
Daiyu has been living in Suzhou for two months, and there have been no major disturbances.On the one hand, Daiyu was secretly planning when to move out, but Tangshu and Biying kept blocking her, so she had to put it aside for the time being.
Seeing that An's birthday was approaching, Daiyu did some two-color needlework, and took a purse from the palace, which contained a pair of red gold jade bracelets with the word "Shou".
The magistrate's wife celebrated her birthday, and there were quite a few people who came to celebrate. Although the ostentation was not as good as that of Jiamu's birthday, let alone the Queen Mother's birthday banquet, the officials and ministers congratulated her, but she also set up a troupe in her small garden. Lin Ze Those friends I made on the way to officialdom, as well as the female relatives who were sent down from officialdom, also came to congratulate me one after another.
Daiyu also changed her clothes and left early in the morning.Biying's elder brother and sister-in-law also sent someone to send congratulatory gifts early.
Although the garden is small, there are several moving scenes, and the stage is set on the flying tower.However, as the sun gradually rose and the weather became hotter, those melodious singing voices gradually became hypnotic.
Daiyu tried her best, but sat there looking a little lonely.These people who come and go are all unfamiliar.Biying is cheerful by nature, and she is very happy to see her shuttle back and forth.
Not long after, I heard someone come to pass the news, saying that it was the female relatives of the Nanjing defense family.Anshi thought, Nanjing and Suzhou are so far apart, why did they come here.He was busy getting someone to pick him up, but he sat still.
When the female relatives of the garrison family came to the garden, An Shi stood up with a smile and said, "After such a long journey, the old sister has also rushed over. It's not a whole life, why bother to make such a big fuss and make you uneasy."
It turned out that the wife of the defending family was An's natal cousin, Ji, who later married the Lu family and became an official wife.
Mrs. Ji brought her eldest daughter-in-law with her, with a smile on her face: "My sister's birthday, how can I not come. Besides, it's just in time for our master to come back here for business, and it will be delayed for a month or two, so just in time gone."
Mrs. An hurriedly called Bi Ying to meet Mrs. Ji, Mrs. Ji held Bi Ying's hand and praised repeatedly: "Bi'er is so big, and looks good." Then she complained to Mrs An: "Sister shouldn't be so young I promised Bier to someone else, and I still want her to be my second wife. Hey, it seems like a dream."
Biying smiled and walked away.Daiyu felt bored, and when Biying came over, she got up and said to her, "I'm a little sore, I'll go back to my room to rest for a while."
Biying said: "That's fine, I'll go with my sister. It's boring here." So she brought Daiyu to say goodbye to Anshi.Mrs. An didn't pay much attention to it, but Mrs. Ji caught Daiyu with a glance: "Ah, where is the young lady from? This all-over style surpasses all these girls. Why haven't I seen it before?"
An's could only explain: "She is the daughter of the uncle's family. This time she came back from the capital and lives in our house."
Daiyu smiled and saluted slightly.
Mrs. Ji agrees, and stares at Daiyu, who feels uncomfortable all over.Then she went down with Biying.
The drama here is still the same.Mrs. An and Mrs. Ji haven't seen each other for many days, and they gossiped together.Later Mrs. Ji asked about Daiyu's situation: "I remember that her parents passed away a long time ago. Now she is here with her younger sister. Isn't she in Shangjing at her grandfather's house? Why do you want to come back?"
An Shi sneered and said: "Who knows. Such an extra person came out of nowhere and lived at home. I said a few words, and the master at home said that I didn't see it. But this girl is not in good health, so I don't want to bother people by asking for medical medicine." Yes. I hold these words in my heart and I can’t find anyone to say them to. Sister, my aunt is not easy to do.”
Mrs. Ji lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly said with a smile: "My sister said what about our family? The second sister of our family has also seen it, what do you think?"
Anshi didn't understand what Mrs. Ji meant by this.Mrs. Ji went on to say: "The theory is that our family is on the top, but she is not as good as our family now. I think it's okay, but I don't know if she agrees."
An Shifang understood Mrs. Ji's thoughts, and smiled knowingly: "Sister fell in love with the eldest girl, will you want to be your own daughter-in-law?"
Mrs. Ji nodded: "Although she is a little thin, she is a child from a family of poetry and calligraphy, and her foundation is not bad. My second child's life-long event has not been decided, and I have chosen a lot of girls from other families. Either it is not good here, or it is not good there. Okay. Otherwise, I don’t know the basics. Isn’t it a great joy to kiss and add kisses? She lost her mother, so naturally you, as the aunt, made the decision. I wrote her post, and I asked people to count it up. If Alright, I'll book it for the second child."
An Shi thought to herself, if this is the case, it would be cheap, and she wholeheartedly wanted to make this marriage a success.
A day later, Mrs. An asked Daiyu to come over, and said to her personally: "Miss, you are not young anymore, you are the elder sister of our girl Bi. Since you live in our house, I am your aunt, and I am your aunt. It's time for you to make arrangements for you. If you continue to delay like this, but what about the old lady, your parents will blame us for not fulfilling our responsibilities in the underground."
Before this, Daiyu had heard some rumors, lowered her head, and rubbed a corner of her clothes feebly, thinking that no matter where she goes, she can't control herself, is it so difficult to be the master once?She had no words to refute the aunt's meaning, but just listened meekly.An's was talking vividly about the second son of the defense family, what kind of talent, what kind of family background, what kind of family tradition.
Only then did Daiyu look up at Anshi, and said coldly: "Auntie, Daiyu doesn't want to get married."
An's face changed instantly, her smile froze immediately, and she asked sharply, "You don't want to? Why?"
Daiyu said honestly: "There is no reason, I don't want to go against my heart. Please forgive me, Auntie."
An Shi sneered and said: "Sure enough, you are big, and your heart is big. Your father was a Tanhua in the previous dynasty, and also a inspector of salt. You are a young lady, so naturally you can't look down on such a small family, but these It's all in the past. If it weren't for your surname Lin, or your uncle, I don't care what you do. Could it be that you still want to stay in our house for the rest of your life. Let me tell you the truth, today I am telling you these words , not waiting for you to nod or shake your head. There is also a mental preparation as early as possible."
Daiyu knew that there was no way out, and she couldn't see the direction of the future.I thought I knew this earlier, so why did I still want to come back.
She went back to the room sullenly, and shed tears for a while.It didn't take long for Biying to persuade her again and talked to her a lot.But this was her mother's decision, and Biying couldn't control her mother, so she just promised Daiyu: "Sister, don't worry, I really don't want to. I'll go talk to daddy and let daddy persuade my mom. Dad always loves me the most, and he will definitely Yes."
Daiyu shook her head: "What's the use? I appreciate my sister's kindness."
Later, Daiyu found out the jade pendant that was given to her by water solution, and thought to herself, what is he busy in Beijing at the moment.Have you ever had a better day?Suddenly remembered what Shui Rong said to her before parting, in order not to embarrass the two of them, he chose to walk away.But in the past few months, has she ever felt better?
Daiyu gave a wry smile twice, and thought to herself: Can you bear to pay a thousand dollars for a smile?After all, lovesickness is not as good as meeting each other.
