Uncle Hong Lou Rong

Chapter 313
I have never seen such a rush.Lin Daiyu replied coldly: "There are not many valuable things, but three or five books, and no one reads them here. It's better to move back to the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, so as not to occupy your house for nothing."

Brother Rong coughed lightly, realized that he had just overplayed, and replied embarrassingly: "If you can't occupy a room, it will be empty if it is empty. Someday Aunt Lin will get tired of staying in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, or one day Come to Yixia Pavilion to play with my sisters, there is also a place to rest here."

"It's not your own home, it depends on the face of the person where you go. Clean it up early, and save a lot of trouble." Lin Daiyu didn't give Brother Rong a good look at all, and said with a straight face, leading Xueyan, Zicuckoo's two servant girls went to Yixia Pavilion.

Uncle Rong stood where he was, not knowing whether he should be happy or unhappy.

I planned to go back to Yixia Pavilion to have a good rest, so I had no choice but to call two maids and tell them to follow Lin Daiyu.On the other hand, he took a side road to the pavilion by the stream, and was going to enjoy the wind by the stream first, for fear that it would be embarrassing to see Daiyu tidying up in person.

"I'm really a scumbag."

Brother Rong laughed at himself, looking at the lotus blossoms in a corner of the stream, and many lotus pods were facing the sun.Several servant girls propped up the boat and passed between the lotus leaves, breaking down the mature lotus pods.

Such a picture actually made Uncle Rong feel so beautiful that he forgot the time for a while.

When he came back with the servant girl who went to Yixia Pavilion, he finally came back to his senses.I heard the servant girl say: "Miss Lin cleaned up the books in the room, and even took away the paintings on the wall."

Brother Rong nodded and told them to disperse.Looking back at the Yixia Pavilion, it turned out that the door of Lin Daiyu's room was ajar, and a ghost pushed the door open to enter.

Sure enough, it was empty inside.Not to mention the paintings hanging on the wall, the books on the table, and even the glass hydrangea lamp that hung high.

The lamp originally belonged to Lin Daiyu, so it was only right to take it away.Brother Rong smiled wryly, feeling a little lost for some reason.

Maybe it's the bitch's hypocrisy.

There are some people who are so cheap, when others appear in front of them, they wish they could go far away and never see the best.But when others really left, I felt empty in my heart, and I also felt a kind of regret inexplicably.

A lot has happened in this room.Lin Daiyu's smiling face when she moved here is still vivid in my memory, and Daiyu's strange voice still lingers in my ears that day, but now the place is completely empty.

The breakthrough in the relationship between Uncle Rong and Grandma Zhu was due to being here, in Daiyu's room.

He approached the bed, put his right hand on the head of the bed that Zeng Daiyu had leaned on, and touched the bed rail that Li Wan used to hold firmly with both hands.Laughing at himself, he said, "Have I been infected by Lin Daiyu? Why did I get infected with her hypocrisy, or do I pretend to be affectionate from the bottom of my heart?"

"Let's just go, no matter how beautiful you are, it doesn't suit you." Brother Rong comforted himself, and he didn't want to go upstairs, so he just lay on the bed in this room to rest.

Anyway, this place has become a no-man's land, and it is used as the rest room of Uncle Rong.

In the afternoon, Uncle Rong had a beautiful dream in his room.I dreamed that I was punting into the Huajian of Xike, and there was an innocent girl sitting behind him. She kept instructing him which way to go in the punting, so that it was easy to pick lotus pods.

Dreams are just dreams, false.

Even Brother Rong in the dream knew this.But when he realized it, he looked at the girl behind him and found that the girl was Princess Beijing.

Thinking about it for a while, Princess Bei Jing is not such a person.

Sure enough, the person behind became Baochai again.

Occasionally, Baochai has this naive side, and if she really wants to study it carefully, the face behind her becomes Daiyu again.

Good fellow, I heard Daiyu holding a lotus pod and recite a poem she has never heard before.

Instantly woke up from the dream.

For a while, I was in a trance, seeing the setting sun in the west approaching Tianxiang upstairs, and hurriedly got up from the bed.Walking out of the Yixia Pavilion, looking at the surroundings seems like a lifetime away.He didn't understand why he had such a dream, he just remembered that he was quite happy in the dream.Now that I wake up, I can't help but recall the innocence and beauty of my dream.

Who doesn't love a time of innocence?Carefree, don't have to think too much.There is no calculation, no right or wrong, even if you do a trivial thing, you can be happy for a long time.

In the Grand View Garden, at this moment, everyone is preparing for it.

The old lady arranged a place to enjoy the moon, and Mrs. Wang sent Wang Xifeng to prepare it for the moon festival.In the large courtyard, a large incense table is set up, and moon cakes, watermelons, apples, red dates, plums, grapes and other offerings are placed.There is a tablet of the moon god on the top, and there are two big red candles on the left and right.In front of the altar, place a splendid golden censer, and put some incense beside it.

On the big case, there are three wine jugs and a jug of wine.

Under the table, there are some straw mat cushions.

Everyone calculated the time correctly, but the old lady only saw that there were only female relatives in the courtyard, and there was no sign of Baoyu.I searched for someone and asked again, and then sent someone to Jia Zheng to inquire.

Jia Zhengcai sent someone to send a letter of worship to the moon, but he didn't know where Baoyu was.He only asked about the whereabouts of Jia Huan and Jia Lan, and he frowned when he learned that they were all in the garden.

After hearing this, Jia Lian replied, "Baoyu is invited by Xue Pan today, and this meeting should be in the back street."

Jia Zheng thought for a while, sighed, and asked someone to go back to the old lady without waiting for Baoyu.But he didn't pursue Baoyu's itinerary, which surprised the servants next to him for a while.

But Jia Zheng asked, "Why hasn't Brother Rong come here yet?"

The servant replied: "Uncle Xiaorong disappeared after the noon banquet, and no one knows where he went."

Jia Zheng frowned and said, "Go find someone and stop by to ask Brother Jing."

Jia Rong didn't need them to look for her, so Jia Jing definitely couldn't invite them.When night falls and the moon rises, the red candles in the Grand View Garden flicker.

In the inner courtyard, wives and grandmas paid homage to the moon one after another, and clusters of incense were also placed on the censer.

With the completion of the ceremony, Zhu Wen and paper treasures were lit on the red candles, and placed in the golden basin.

Flames ignited in the night.This fire carried the wishes of all the female relatives, illuminating the courtyard and everyone's faces.

Under the moonlight, Tanchun pulled Daiyu and asked in a low voice, "What did you promise?"

Sacrifice the moon and seek a good marriage.

Daiyu glanced quietly at Tanchun.How could she tell the third girl what was on her mind.

In the crowd, Aunt Xue hugged Baochai tightly, and said with a slight smile: "Young girl is not young anymore, it's time to get married. I asked Moon God for a good marriage for you. This year, I will ask a few relatives more. Find a good husband for the girl."

Baochai was stunned, what a good husband-in-law?Do you still need to look for it? The one in Dongfu is the one.

She dared not say these words.On the other hand, Tanchun whispered to Daiyu in the back, and suddenly remembered something, and told his mother about the birth, and approached Daiyu to ask about today's situation.

Daiyu lowered her head and took Baochai to the corner, and whispered one by one about her encounter with Brother Rong in the afternoon, her tone full of helplessness and resentment.

Baochai said with a smile, "Young girl Feng and I will make plans for my sister, what should my sister worry about?"

Daiyu said quietly: "You are all well-intentioned, but I feel uncomfortable. I am always unwilling to get it like this."

Baochai said: "Whether you are at ease, whether you are happy or not, you have to get it before you know. Who in the house doesn't know that Brother Rong is the most soft-hearted. If you continue like this, are you afraid that he won't come to see you?"

Daiyu: "..."

During this night, many people had more thoughts.Generally speaking, everyone was happy at first.It's just that halfway through the banquet, the old lady called Brother Rong's daughter-in-law, Qin Shi, over, and praised the two wives face to face.

Wang's complexion was the same as usual, but Xing's jealousy became more and more.

Now the Qin family has become the old lady's most proud great-grandson's wife, but the Xing family's eldest daughter-in-law has become a transparent person of the Jia family.Just listening to the old lady's bright laughter at the banquet, Xing thought about what the old lady said, not to mention the taste.

"Others are getting older, so they may not suit your temperament. Your empress and Brother Rong's daughter-in-law are about the same age, so it's good to walk around more..."

"Girls are not young anymore, and learn to manage housework by your sister-in-law. Brother Rong will take care of the outside affairs..."

It never occurred to Mrs. Xing that Wang Xifeng let go of the inner house, and she still had no hand in the housekeeper's affairs.Now that Jia Zheng is going to other provinces, he did not expect that the old lady would approve the East Mansion to preside over the foreign affairs of the West Mansion.

"eccentric."

Not only the Xing family thought this way, Jia She also thought the same way.

At the man's table, the atmosphere was quite strange.Especially when Jia Amnesty heard what Jia Zheng said, he couldn't help showing a look of displeasure on his face.Seeing Brother Lian's indifferent face, Master She was even more angry.

He cursed in his heart: "You useless boy, having such a son would be worse than getting his mother's mouth in his early years."

Then I heard Brother Lian say to Jia Rong with a smile: "I will listen to Brother Rong's arrangement in the future. Don't forget me as an uncle if you have something good to do."

Jia Amnesty was even more annoyed: "There is no blood at all, no wonder that girl lives in the East Mansion and doesn't want to come back."

Of course, Jia Amnesty was a hundred dissatisfied, but no sound came out of his mouth.Family matters have always been decided by the old lady and brother Jia Zheng, and his eldest son and elder brother have little power in the family.

Jia Amnesty couldn't say anything against him, but seeing his brother Jia Zhengre staring at him, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and agree.He said politely: "In this family, what chance do we have to talk? With you and the old lady in front of the West Mansion, and brother Jing in the family, we have nothing to say."

Brother Rong could see that Jia She had a lot of resentment.In fact, he didn't want to meddle in the affairs of the West Mansion, either internal or external.Just looking at today's posture, it is estimated that the internal and external affairs of the West Mansion will have to worry about in the future.

After all, where is it only about foreign affairs and not involving internal affairs?
Brother Rong raised his glass and said with a wry smile: "Second Grandpa thinks highly of Rong'er's ability. Rong'er is a rough man, and he used to be a dude. There are many things that need to be taught by Eldest Grandpa and Uncle Lian. All matters concerning the two prefectures are handled by the family. It’s right for everyone here to make up their minds together, how can a kid like me make the decision.”

Jia She secretly rolled his eyes, thinking that Brother Rong still has a little bit of self-knowledge.He replied casually: "Brother Rong, don't worry, as long as it is beneficial to the family, I will definitely support it. With me and your Uncle Lian here, there will be no trouble in the West Mansion."

"Save it, save it." Brother Rong agreed with a smile.

It's just that Jia Zheng didn't feel relieved when he heard it. No one knew the details of his brother's elder brother better than his younger brother.Jia Zheng grinned, brushed his beard with his hand to cover up his expression, and said softly, "Brother Rong will be too much work for the family from now on."

Jia Amnesty bared his lips and snorted secretly, so he had to drink himself a cup.Looking at Jia Lian next to him, who was heartless and innocent, he wished he could kick him.

Such unhappiness, Jia Amnesty waited until the dinner was over, and it still persisted.

When they returned to the Rongguo Mansion, Jia She and the Xing family complained a lot about this, but there was nothing they could do.

Another day passed, but the Princess of Beijing County hadn't left the Ningguo Mansion yet, she just set aside a room in Conglvtang.

"Their family is also strange. The aunt at home actually intervenes in the errands of the men. They don't go to other places and come here."

Listening to what the maid next to her said, Princess Beijing raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.Said: "That's the best. When I was still in Jinling in the past, the master of the family would ask my mother for advice on some official affairs. If you really want to keep the inside and outside without interfering with each other, it will not work."

The maid groaned, but didn't agree.

The princess of Beijing County smiled and said: "You are still too young to know the depth of the inner house. I only see the women here giving advice. In fact, in such a family, the walking and communication between the inner houses is serious. Many times , the inner house can affect the official career of the men in the family. Grandma Rong was recognized as a daughter by Princess Zhongshun, and it is also the same when Grandma Zhu came to help Brother Rong. The same reason."

The maid thought for a moment and replied: "The two of them are married, and there is still a generation gap between them. Instead of going to the study in the front yard, I found a secluded place where I am not afraid of gossip. One of them is a married woman."

The Princess of Beijing Commandery said: "Don't talk nonsense. It is only after generations that others can't gossip. So what about chaste women, how can you look at people with such eyes."

The maid suddenly dared not speak.

The princess of Beijing County said politely: "They know that there are guests like us here, and they can come here. Naturally, they have no ghosts in their hearts. Let's not disturb their work. I haven't visited this garden much. Come back later in the afternoon."

maid:"……"

A few people came out of Cong Lv hall master's building, the maid secretly looked at the podium study, only to see Uncle Xiao Rong and Nanny Zhu were ordering themselves.The distance between the two is not close, and the doors and windows are open, so it is very aboveboard.

The maid only blamed herself for thinking too much, she lowered her head slightly ashamed.

Huifang Garden is not very lively on weekdays, although the maids occasionally play here, they immediately become cautious when they see guests.The Princess of Beijing County accidentally ran into someone from Yixia Pavilion, and was invited to drink tea in the attic.

She also listened to some gossips between Wang Xifeng and Brother Rong in Yixia Pavilion, and knew that this sister Feng belonged to the Wang family, and was Mrs. Wang's niece, who married Xifu Lian as his wife in her early years.

later……

Later, for some reason, he had some gossip with his nephew in the East Mansion, and this year he moved directly into the East Mansion and did not go back to the West Mansion.
