Qing Wu Red House

Chapter 277

Lin Haorui really did not expect that on the second day of the Nazheng ceremony, the date of the royal invitation was set on August [-]th, which was two full months after the Nazheng ceremony.Lin Haorui looked at the date with some surprise, and looked at the two ministers in puzzlement.

Chen Liang said with a little embarrassment: "This is the nearest auspicious day calculated by His Royal Highness in Qintianjian. Originally, the sixth day of August was a good day, suitable for marriage and housekeeping. But the fifth day is not suitable for everything. , according to the emperor's will, the day before, the crown prince had to give Miss Lin the gold book, so the prince had no choice but to give it up. That's why he chose this two-day auspicious date."

Lin Haorui smirked, but he didn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of Ji Xueyong and Chen Liang, so he asked seriously: "Then our dowry will also be sent to Changyang Palace on the [-]th?" Chen Liang said with a smile: "Isn't this Are you going to discuss this matter with Lord Hou? His Royal Highness means that we will officially award the gold book at the moment of Chenshi, and the dowry is being carried out from our mansion at the time of Sishi. I am afraid that there is not enough time for my servant to see what Lord Hou prepared that day. Not enough, what do you think, Lord Hou?"

Lin Haorui raised his eyebrows, knowing that these people couldn't handle Tianyou, and now he was looking for a breakthrough from him.But what Chen Liang said was also true, the dowry might not be finished in a while.So he asked: "Master Chen should be troubled to report back to the emperor and His Royal Highness, the dowry may have to be delivered one day in advance!"

Chen Liang let out a sigh of relief. Although Daqi's rule is to give the dowry the day before the wedding, no one has explicitly said that it cannot be given in advance.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince attaches great importance to this girl from the Lin family, and he is not willing to be wronged at all. Now that Lin Haorui has said it himself, it will be easier for him to go back.

Ji Xueyong also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, settled the business, and began to establish friendship with Lin Haorui: "Master Hou, you can choose all the living people who will send you off. My mother-in-law asked me the day before yesterday, saying that Miss Lin's The horoscope is so good, I'm afraid it's not easy to find someone to send you off!"

Lin Haorui smiled and nodded, he knew that Ji Xueyong's wife had a very good horoscope, and both parents had both children, and the most rare thing was that she matched Daiyu's horoscope.He also discussed with Wushuang yesterday that he wanted to ask Sister Feng to sign a line with her and visit her.Who would have thought that Ji Xueyong would actually talk about this matter by himself today.

Lin Haorui smiled and said: "I was talking about going to visit my wife yesterday, if my wife can help, Hao Rui would be very grateful!" Ji Xueyong said with a smile: "Then we really thought of getting together. Master Hou doesn't need to go to visit , Tomorrow I will ask her to put on Miss Lin's makeup. Let's officially start the makeup period!"

Lin Haorui laughed, and the banquet was set.So the two adults were invited to sit down.Yang Wushuang and Daiyu also learned the exact time in the backyard. Wushuang smiled and said: "It's good to have a date, and we have a plan in mind. After tomorrow, many people will come to visit and add makeup, sister If you don't want to see him, stay in the Yanyu Pavilion, and my sister-in-law will help you!" Daiyu thanked Yang Wushuang with a smile.

Who knew that Wushuang, the first family who came to add makeup, would be unstoppable, and it was the Ningrong Second Mansion.Mother Jia came here in person with her eldest daughter-in-law, Youshi, Youjia sisters and several girls, so Daiyu had no choice but to come forward to see her.Mother Jia brought a lot of makeup gifts, but Daiyu also knew that Jia's mansion might not be as good as it used to be.These things were just common ones when she lived in Jia's mansion, but now they are collected and given away.

Yang Wushuang obviously didn't think as much as Daiyu thought, but felt that the gift from Jia's mansion was a bit too ordinary.But she didn't show it on her face.Instead, he greeted him more cordially.Yingchun, Tanchun, and Xichun also gave Daiyu gifts, but they were obviously not very interested.Daiyu knew that Lian's second brother had returned to Beijing triumphantly a few days ago, but he did not help Yingchun's marriage.

Jia Amnesty insisted on going his own way, and the ancestors never reached out.Yingchun's wedding date was hurriedly set at the beginning of July.Daiyu sighed when she found out, but she also knew that father and son are normal.This is probably the fate that sister Yingchun cannot escape.So when she added makeup, she gave a big gift.Thinking about making Yingchun more beautiful when she gets married.

At this time, Daiyu looked at Yingchun, and said softly: "Sister Yingchun is getting married, and she came to add makeup to me. Daiyu is really grateful!" Yingchun was much calmer than expected, and smiled faintly: " No matter what sister Lin said, I will naturally come."

Tanchun glanced at Yingchun, but said nothing.It was You Shi who joined in the fun: "I heard that Miss Lin's dowry is very rich, why don't you show us around?" Daiyu was slightly taken aback, although she heard that there was such a rule of posting dowry, but she was really serious about it. Was asked to visit the dowry for the first time.She glanced at Xueyan, Xueyan replied cleverly: "I'm afraid Qingxinyuan is a little messy, everyone is busy right now."

You Shi said: "It's good to be lively!" Then he looked at Yang Wushuang: "Grandma Lin is afraid that our rented family will not be able to handle it?" Wushuang was angry in his heart, but smiled on his face: "Where is this This kind of worry, my ancestors want to go and see me. I am young and have little knowledge, I am afraid I have forgotten something for my sister, and I am worrying about it these days!" Then he looked at his eldest girl: "Zi Yan, You go to Qingxinyuan to inform them, let them stop their work and go to rest for a while!"

Ziyan replied respectfully: "Yes!" Yang Wushuang waited for the girl to go out for a while, then stood up, and smiled at Daiyu: "Let's ask our ancestors to check, if there is anything inappropriate, your brother and I It’s better to prepare again.”

Daiyu stepped forward to hold Jiamu by the arm, and said in a low voice, "Grandmother, walk slowly."

The three Yingchun sisters also enthusiastically embraced Jiamu and went to the Qingxinyuan, but the Youshi sisters seemed a little disdainful and excited, I don't know whether it was anxiety or envy.As soon as he walked out of the painting screen, he saw a seven or eight-year-old child walking towards this side together with Ao Jian and Xiang'er.

When Jia Mu and others saw Ao Jian, they all bowed and saluted. Ao Jian waved his hand and glanced at the people in Jia's residence.Then he smiled and said to Daiyu: "This boy was arguing about giving the girl some makeup gifts when he came today, but Xiang'er and I were teased. However, I think he is very serious, so I won't accept it." When he came over, he didn't expect Miss Lin to have guests, so he was really presumptuous."

Daiyu laughed and said, "Brother Aojian, what are you talking about?" Then she looked at the child and said, "What do you want to give me?" The child took out a large bag of things from his arms and handed them all Daiyu: "Sister Lin, my mother gave it to me, she said it was vegetable seeds."

Everyone was looking at the boy curiously, wondering if he could give him something valuable, but it turned out to be a bag of seeds.They couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing.Third Sister You was even more exaggerated, even laughing out loud.

The child blushed, and said in a low voice: "My mother said, we know that Sister Lin doesn't lack anything, and naturally she doesn't lack vegetables. But..." Ao Jian stretched out his hand to hold the child's head, and the child was there last year. Chen Ergou, who lives outside the peach forest of Grandma Liu's family, has been studying and practicing martial arts in the Lin residence for a year, and he is very familiar with Ao Jian.

Ao Jian glanced at Third Sister You, and said to Chen Ergou in a low voice: "Your Sister Lin will like this gift!" Daiyu glanced at Zijuan at the side, and then squatted down.Looking directly at Chen Ergou: "Brother Aojian is right, I like this gift very much. Go back and thank your mother for me, and just say that I accept her heart! In the future, even if Sister Lin is not here, you must Keep learning."

Chen Ergou nodded heavily, and Yang Wushuang said beside him, "Sister, don't underestimate this kid, he's a quick learner. A few days ago, your brother took what your master taught him to test him, and he answered fluently."

Daiyu smiled gratifiedly, and then stood up.Tanchun knew that the members of the Lin family were dissatisfied with Third Sister You's performance just now.He took out a purse, and stepped forward with a smile: "I think this kid is also very good, I give this to you, and I will be more ambitious in the future!"

Unexpectedly, Chen Ergou took a step back and looked at Tanchun firmly: "My mother said that you should not take other people's things casually. And the master also taught me that you will not be rewarded for nothing. Ergou thank you for your reward." , but please take the things back, girl!"

Tanchun was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious.Daiyu laughed and said, "Sister, leave him alone. He's very stubborn!" Saying goodbye to Aojian, she continued walking towards Qingxin Courtyard with Jia Mu on her arm.Mother Jia glanced back at Chen Ergou and asked, "Who is that child?"

Daiyu replied: "He is a neighbor of Grandma Liu's family. My brother saw that he is a good man. That's why I stayed by my side to teach!" Jia Mu nodded, but still whispered: "Although the child is good, in the end You have to find out the department, don't be mixed in by someone with a heart!"

When Third Sister You heard Jia Mu's words, she felt that she had found a chance to defend herself, so she said, "What the old ancestor said is true. I don't think that child is such a worry!" Daiyu glanced at Third Sister You, Wushuang smiled and looked at Mrs. Xing: "This girl can tell, but the eldest lady hasn't introduced who this girl is yet? Why does she look so unfamiliar? Could it be that she is also a girl from our family?"

Mrs. Xing's face froze. Although Mrs. Wang could no longer move in the Rongguo Mansion, the power of housekeeping fell to Tanchun and Second Sister You, so she was dissatisfied and unhappy.But at this moment, she didn't dare to complain in front of Jia Mu, so she could only say: "She is sister You's natal sister, and she just lives in our house."

Wushuang sneered: "Who do I know? It turns out to be my aunt's sister." Then she looked at Yun Yan, her voice was a little harsh: "Hurry up and ask my aunt and her sister to rest in the side hall, what are you doing with us in such a grand manner. So It's been a long time, and you're still acting so stupidly, I'll help you plead if you see the uncle training you in the future?"

Yun Yan hurriedly bowed her head to admit her mistake, and said to Second Sister You and Third Sister You: "Auntie, please!" Third Sister You has never been wronged like this, she raised her eyebrows and was about to go mad: "You!" But she was stopped by Mother Jia's words Stopped: "Wu Shuang girl is still considerate, my old woman has ignored it. You go, don't stay here!"

Second Sister You also pulled Third Sister Layou, and said softly, "Yes, old ancestor!" Mother Jia snorted.Daiyu didn't seem to have heard these remarks at all, and continued to talk to Jiamu about the scenery on the roadside, and the maids followed respectfully.

Tanchun walked a little behind Daiyu, looking at Daiyu's still soft and weak body, he knew that sister Lin had already walked a different path from them.Now think about it when everyone lived in Rongguo Mansion back then, how many servants commented that Sister Lin was weak and poor, not as good as Sister Bao.

But now, Sister Lin is the daughter of the Hou family, she will soon become the concubine of the prince, and will be the mother of a country in Daqi in the future.As for Sister Bao, she has long since passed away, and even her body has not been found.

Tanchun sighed heavily in his heart, and couldn't help thinking about his future.Now the Rongguo Mansion is in chaos, and the second sister You and the younger sister are about to make a scene in the mansion, but the ancestors just don't see it, thinking about Baoyu's body every day.And what good results can she have for a daughter born from a concubine?But just like the second sister, she was sold by her father for 5000 taels of silver.

Looking at Daiyu's back, Tanchun felt that he had really miscalculated that he hadn't formed a deeper friendship with this sister Lin that day.Now they are thousands of miles apart.It's just too hard to get close relatives.Suddenly there was a burst of hearty laughter, and Tanchun couldn't help his eyes light up, as if he had found some light again.

To be able to make such hearty laughter and dare to be so presumptuous in the herb garden, no one but Wang Xifeng thinks of anyone else.Both Daiyu and Wushuang smiled, but Mrs. Xing dismissed it with disdain.

Wu Shuang already smiled and went forward: "Why is Auntie here now? Could it be that he smelled the aroma of our family's rice?"

Wang Xifeng twisted Wushuang's cheeks: "Look at your mouth, after marrying into this mansion, you haven't learned anything else. But this mouth is getting more and more unforgiving!" Wushuang laughed: "Where is this? What I learned at home, I obviously got it from my aunt!"

Wang Xifeng laughed, and then brought Ping'er Xiaohong and other girls to meet Jia Mu and Mrs. Xing: "I don't know that the ancestors also chose today to add makeup to Sister Lin. Otherwise, I would have come earlier. How about our mother?" It's also lively."

Jia Mu laughed and said: "Look at your temperament, you are the mother of two children. You don't seem to be restrained in the slightest. We are going to see your sister Lin's dowry, so you come with me!" Wang Xifeng said: "Aiyoyo , the old ancestors don’t know, I don’t like to go into that courtyard, just to remind me that the dowry was too little when I got married that day.”

You Shi smiled from the side: "Bah. How little is your dowry? It was also carried into our house by 64 that day. How many people's eyes were red!" Wang Xifeng waved her hand and sighed: "A hero doesn't mention the brave , I only hate myself for not being born two years late. You don’t believe what I say, you’ll know when you get in!”

Mother Jia knew that Daiyu's dowry was indispensable, but she also felt that what Wang Xifeng said was too exaggerated.After Jia Mu really entered Qingxinyuan and saw the piles of rare antiques, calligraphy and painting books all over the floor.I think that girl Feng really didn't lie.

Wushuang smiled and introduced Daiyu's dowry composition, while asking Jia Mu's opinion.Mrs. Xing, Youshi and the others had already dazzled their eyes, and Tanchun began to think deeply again.An attention gradually formed in my heart.

Jiamu and the others stayed in the herb garden for a day and returned to Rongguo Mansion in the evening.Since this day, the vanilla garden has been continuously adding makeup every day, and Daiyu didn't know that her brother had become a mainstay in the court until now.Many people she had never heard of also sent generous gifts.And Lin Haorui looked at the gifts that the Qingxin Courtyard was almost out of pile.Also began to politely refuse.

But Wushuang had more things to worry about, repeatedly facing the list with Nanny Song.Constantly chatting with Lin Haorui: "Can't we add more dowry sets? How can this be accommodated!"

Lin Haorui shook his head: "I found out that when the Supreme Emperor got married, Empress Yang was only 120, and we are invincible, and we can't exceed this number." Wu Shuang sighed: "Oh, I'm really worried, Brother Rui But you have to be mentally prepared, I really can't do it well, I will ask Brother Rui for help!"

Lin Haorui looked at his wife amusedly. Since the loss of Xianli, Wushuang's body seems to be getting weaker day by day, but her personality has become brighter. It seems that she has really forgotten the obsession of her previous life and just wants to live a good life. It's just this life.

He held Wushuang's hand: "Okay, I happen to be going to the palace tomorrow to meet the queen, so I'll give it a try!" Wushuang smiled reassuringly.

Although the Empress Dowager reassured Lin Haorui on the second day, they were all sent to the palace anyway, so they would not suffer.As for the Yang family's precedent, no one will pursue it.But Wushuang is still full of sadness, and there is no other reason, Chechen's gift of adding makeup has been brought.

At this time, Che Chen was already the leader of the Jianzhou Jurchen. After two years of struggle, the entire Jianzhou tribe finally returned to calm.Wushuang didn't know when Chechen's gift of makeup would depart from Hetuala, but the time to arrive at the herb garden would be on August [-]st.

Naturally, Daiyu also heard about it, and she was moved by her sister-in-law as she watched the dowry-adding ceremony that was about to catch up with the dowry.But she still said: "These are too precious, tell my sister-in-law and brother, let's return them!"

Wushuang smiled and said: "Chechen said in the letter to your brother that if you want to return it, you can just throw it into the moat. Anyway, he won't accept it. Princess Yunting sent someone to send it back yesterday." It's a wishful one, and it's also of extraordinary value." Daiyu sighed softly, thinking of Chechen who was full of parting feelings in the gazebo that day, and smiled on her lips.

Although Daiyu didn't send back Chechen's makeup gift, she made an agreement with Hao Rui that she only needs to put part of it in the dowry, and the rest will stay in the herb garden for Xiang'er in the future.

Lin Haorui laughed after hearing this, but still did not veto Daiyu's proposal.Seeing that the third day of the eighth lunar month was here, and it was another year for Jiamu's birthday, although Daiyu thought about it, she stepped into the gate of Rongguo Mansion again.

When Yingchun was married in July, Daiyu was not present in person. The main reason was that the Jia family did not entertain guests and friends, and Daiyu couldn't bear to see Yingchun.I don't know if Yingchun will come back for Jiamu's birthday today.

Lin Haorui was worried that Daiyu would go alone, but Wushuang solemnly asked Sister Feng to take care of Daiyu because it was not easy for the Yang family to come.Daiyu felt a little funny about her brother's nervousness, but she still felt warm in her heart.

What Daiyu didn't expect was that she saw Baoyu again at Jiamu's birthday banquet.
