Red Chamber: Bring Xue Baochai home at the beginning

Chapter 21 Daiyu
Jia Yucun?
How did you meet him here?
Feng Yibo couldn't help being stunned when he heard this name.

Before he could react, a new shock came again.

He heard a delicate voice behind him.

"Sir, it's time to come, the cabin is really smothered to death!"

Feng Yibo followed the voice and looked over.

I saw a little girl standing there pretty.

She is not very old, and she is dressed as a young man.

He was wearing a short jacket with a white background inlaid with emerald greens, and inside was a short piece of light green pleats.

There is a dark green sash around her waist, which seems to be not tight.

Because of Chu's slender waist, it's only fit for a grip.

Although she tends to dress up like a man, she can see her graceful figure at a glance.

Stepping on suede leather boots, slender and light.

Covered with a green calyx plum cloak on a white background.

Like a lotus leaf, it hugs the delicate figure from behind.

Her body is fragile, but she has a romantic attitude.

Looking up, the hair is simply tied up on the head, and it has a melon-seeded face.

The most catchy thing is her eyebrows.

Two curved eyebrows that seem to be frowning but not frowning, and a pair of eyes that seem to be happy but not happy.

In the blink of an eye, it seems that she has taken up all the spirit of beauty in the world.

When speaking, she seems to be panting slightly, like Xizi holding her heart.

With the light emerald green on her body, she stands timidly in the water like a hibiscus.

It is the opposite of Baochai's beauty.

This is a light-faced little beauty.

Even if he is dressed as a son, it is still difficult to hide his aura.

"Mr. is not here, they won't let anyone come out!"

The girl shook off her mother-in-law, and stood beside Jia Yucun lightly.

Jia Yucun was a little displeased when he heard the words, frowned and said in a low voice:

"The cabin is stuffy but warm, and the deck is ventilated but cold. Don't stay too long, lest you suffer from the cold."

"Students know."

The girl responded obediently.

Jia Yucun looked her up and asked in a low voice:
"Didn't you say that your grandmother's family has more rules, why do you still dress like this?"

The girl had a younger brother who died young at the age of three.

The parents raised the girl as a fake child to comfort the desolation under their knees.

She was smart and smart since she was a child, how could she not understand?
In order to make her parents happy, she sometimes pretends to be a son.

Her father even hired a teacher to teach her how to read and write.

It's just that her mother passed away and her father was busy with his career.

The grandmother felt sorry for her, so she was picked up and raised under her knees.

But she knew that no matter how close grandma was, it was also her uncle's house.

If she went, she would live with others, maybe she couldn't be so casual anymore, right?

"Isn't this here yet?"

The girl was sad in her heart, but she didn't seem to care on the surface, and she still licked her tongue slightly when she heard the words.

Seeing that Feng Yibo was still there, he felt a little impolite, his pretty face flushed slightly.

She restrained her appearance, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, sir, I will change tomorrow, and I will only be a daughter from now on."

Only then did Jia Yucun nod in satisfaction, and introduced Feng Yibo with a smile:

"This is the daughter of Lord Lin, who is also the owner of the two ships."

How can I introduce him?
Feng Yibo's appearance has already guessed that this person is Sister Lin.

It is worthy of being the head of the twelve beauties in Jinling, and the two beauties have their own strengths.

She was too young, Feng Yibo naturally had no other thoughts.

I just feel that she is obviously slender and weak, but she also gives people an extremely agile feeling.

He couldn't take a closer look, and stepped forward to salute upon hearing the words.

"Feng has met Miss Lin's family and is about to thank her for helping her face to face."

"It's a trivial move, don't worry about it."

Lin Daiyu returned the gift generously, like a passionate dragon girl.

She smiled again and said, "Before we set off from Yangzhou, stories of Feng Jieyuan's suppression of Japanese were spread all over the south of the Yangtze River. I didn't expect to meet here. It's a great honor."

Feng Yibo didn't dare to say: "Miss praises you, it's just a fluke."

He had just watched the two of them chatting in low voices about homework, but his heart was already as anxious as ants in a hot pot.

Seeing that the two boats were not far from leaving the lake, they were about to dock if they didn't think of a way.

Now that he had the opportunity to speak, he immediately said earnestly:
"On the contrary, Miss Gao Yi, if you saved this inferior person, please give me an address, and I will definitely reward you generously in the future!"

When Daiyu heard about it, she declined.

"It doesn't have to be like this, it's just a matter of raising my hands for me to ask for help."

"When you go out, you will inevitably encounter some troubles. No matter who sees Feng Jieyuan, no one will remain indifferent. How can I take kindness?"

I thought it would be nice to be polite.

Unexpectedly, Feng Yibo shook his head when he heard the words.

"That's a bad word!"

With a righteous face, he shook his head and said:

"Miss Lin is a bodhisattva, but don't be a Zigong!"

"If everyone refuses money like Zi Gong, will there be fewer people to save people in the future?"

Zigong rejects gold, which is an allusion of Zigong, a disciple of Confucius.

It probably means that Zi once said to Zi Gong:

Do not reward for doing good deeds, it will dampen the enthusiasm of others.

Feng Yibo's words are like an old sour Confucian, showing the momentum that he must call Confucius.

"Giggle!"

Daiyu is well-read and knowledgeable, and she can't help covering her mouth and chuckling.

Unexpectedly, Jie Yuan was a nerd.

She is free and easy, but she doesn't care about these things.

Then he nodded and said: "Since that's the case, after the young master's exam, you can go to Rongguo Jia's mansion for a while, and then my elders will welcome you."

According to my mother, the second uncle likes to associate with scholars the most.

Presumably he would not mind entertaining a Jieyuan.

But Daiyu didn't know that Feng Yibo was waiting for the words "Rongguo Jiafu"!

Hearing this, he was immediately surprised, and asked: "Miss said, but among the four princes and eight princes, the Jia family of one family and two princes, that Rongguo Jia's mansion?"

"That's right, Rongguo Jia's Mansion is my grandmother's house, and I'm going to visit her old man's house."

Daiyu didn't catch the meaning behind Feng Yibo's words.

"It's really a coincidence!"

Feng Yibo slapped his thigh, his face was full of surprise.

"My mentor is the Li family of Jinling. In secret, his daughter-in-law is the daughter-in-law of the government official Jia of Rongguo!"

Daiyu felt something was wrong, and exchanged a glance with Jia Yucun.

Both the master and the apprentice felt that the development of the matter was a bit strange.

Feng Yibo knew that the other party would not trust him lightly, but he still had a backhand.

Unhurriedly, he took out two letters from the package and handed them to Daiyu.

"This time I went to Beijing to rush for the exam, and my mentor asked me to bring a letter to Zheng Gong, and then visit my senior sister Jia Lishi on his behalf."

Although Li Shouzhong and Jia Zheng are in-laws, they haven't seen each other for many years.

The two had a very good relationship when they were young, and they often scolded Fang Qiu together and talked freely about their ambitions.

Coupled with the fact that the two families are from Jinling clan, it is logical to make a marriage arrangement for their children.

Later, Jia Zheng was bestowed an official by the Supreme Emperor before he was selected.

Since then, there have been more central officials in the court, who are despised by literati.

Jia Zheng was unwilling to be content with turbidity, and began to prefer simple talks, ignoring common affairs.

Li Shouzhong was in Jinling again, and the two drifted apart.

However, there are not many people Li Shouzhong can trust in the capital.

After all, Jia Zheng was his old friend and the relative of his sons and daughters.

Presumably Rong Guogong's lineage can also provide shelter for Feng Yibo.

At least he won't be bullied by others.

In addition, he may not have been in touch with his daughter for a long time, so he just asked someone to visit her.

Hence these two letters.

Daiyu took it and only glanced at the envelope.

really.

One is to Jia Zheng and Jia Cunzhou of Rongguo Mansion.

One to Jia Li, Li Wan, and Li Gongcai in Rongguo Mansion.

When things got to this point, she had to believe it.

Returning the letter to Feng Yibo, Daiyu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This is really a coincidence."

"Who said it wasn't! What a coincidence!"
