Daiyu through the Red Mansions

Chapter 21 Concubine Dongping's Heart Is Deep

As mentioned last time, a picture of Avalokitesvara with Western painting techniques pulled Daiyu into the door of memory and couldn't extricate herself.

Shui Rong discovered Daiyu's situation, and curiously picked up the Guanyin picture to appreciate it.But he couldn't figure it out, so he went to entertain the male guests after being on pins and needles.

"Yu'er, you feel a little uncomfortable. Auntie sees that you don't look well, but you've got a cold. I'll call the imperial physician over immediately."

But Concubine Bei Jing was looking at the gifts presented by everyone, and felt that Daiyu's little hand that she held in her hand was trembling uncontrollably.

Looking back, she was shocked, Daiyu was trembling all over, and her face turned pale.This made Liu Mei feel flustered and at a loss for what to do. She hurriedly hugged Daiyu into her arms and asked, tears streaming down her face.

"Thank you aunt for your concern, Yu'er is fine. It's just that I suddenly thought of my mother, and I felt a little unhappy, which really spoiled my aunt's interest." Daiyu was moved and comforted when she heard the concubine's concern.

"Silly boy, sister Min is really blessed to have such a well-behaved and sensible daughter as Yu'er by her side.

Now that Yu'er looks so gorgeous, sister Min must feel relieved.Yu'er, don't be sad, isn't there still an aunt here, and the aunt will take good care of Yu'er instead of sister Min. "

Seeing Daiyu's small appearance still stained with tears, the concubine felt very sad, for her own daughter could not recognize each other, how could it be a painful word.

"Well, thank you aunt, Yu'er is not sad, and my mother doesn't want to see me sad.

Yu'er also wants to pay tribute to her aunt's birthday. This is the Avalokitesvara embroidered by Yu'er herself. I hope my aunt will like it, which is Yu'er's blessing. "

Daiyu nodded to Xueyan, Xueyan understood, and hurriedly handed over the gift from her own girl.

"Yu'er is very happy to be able to come to Auntie, so why bother. If she is tired, it is Auntie's fault. There is no need to see Auntie."

Grand Concubine Liu Mei saw that Daiyu's pale face slowly recovered, and she found nothing wrong after looking at it for a long time, so she felt relieved.

After hearing this, Daiyu embroidered a gift for herself, and she was very happy in her heart.After receiving Daiyu's gift, she was about to observe carefully when Princess Dongping said:
"Sister Bei Jing, I don't know what kind of treasure this girl gave me, but my little sister is lucky enough to catch a glimpse of it?"

Concubine Dongping has been paying attention to the expression of Concubine Beijing, wanting to know which lady Princess Beijing cares about so that the Dongping Palace can make a decision, but she finds that Concubine Beijing cares deeply for the girl sitting next to her .

In the impression of Princess Dongping, there is no such stunning girl in the Beijing Palace and the Taifei's natal family.It's just that it's not good to go forward to speak rashly, now that Daiyu gave a birthday gift, and Dowager Bei Jing was full of joy, she couldn't help feeling puzzled, so she took the opportunity to ask.

"Hehe, it's just children embroidering something, so it's not worth my sister's attention."

Of course Liu Mei didn't want Concubine Dongping to look at it, this was a gift from her daughter, and it was embroidered with her own hands, it was very meaningful, so she refused without a trace.

"Sister Bei Jing, you are so out of touch. You can't take it lightly when you think about the things made by such a beautiful beauty. It has aroused my sister's interest even more, two sisters, don't you think so?"

Concubine Dongping saw that Concubine Beijing refused to refuse, the more she felt that this birthday gift was very interesting, so she passed the conversation to Concubine Xining and Concubine Nan'an.

Concubine Xining is a living Bodhisattva with a heart like still water, but Concubine Nan'an is a jumper. If I say this, it will definitely arouse the interest of Concubine Nan'an.

Sure enough, Concubine Nan'an smiled and said: "Sister, just take out the treasure, and we all will see it, and we will live up to this girl's filial piety to her sister."

"Well, I'd like to ask Yu'er, after all, it's inconvenient to spread the things of women in the boudoir." Liu Mei can ignore Concubine Dongping, but now that Concubine Nan'an is intervening, it's embarrassing for herself.He only looked at Daiyu, wanting to hear Daiyu's decision.

"Auntie, it's okay, it's just an ordinary Guanyin statue embroidered by Yu'er, don't worry about it."

Liu Mei looked at Daiyu apologetically, but she didn't know that this was exactly what Daiyu wanted. Originally, she wanted to use the concubine's birthday to launch a new cross-stitch product of her own design, how could she not allow it.

With Daiyu's approval, Liu Mei was reluctant to let Nanny Liu take the Thousand-Handed Avalokitesvara statue to pass it on to everyone, and only told her to be careful and never damage it.

"Sister Bei Jing, the workmanship of this Guanyin statue is really exquisite, and the flat glass attached to it is extremely rare.

This Avalokitesvara has so many hands and eyes, I have never seen it before, so what is the source? "

Concubine Dongping took a look at the gift, and saw a Guanyin wearing a flower crown in a red sandalwood frame, and a transformed Buddha appeared in the crown.Two beams of light emanated from his body, shooting towards the void from left to right, and flying into the sky.Dressed in Yingluo, wearing heavenly clothes, stepping on lotuses with both feet, sitting on the Vajra Seat in good lotus.

Avalokitesvara has a total of 42 hands. The hands on the shoulders are put together to support a sitting Buddha on the crown, the hands in front of the body are folded together, and the hands slightly lower are placed on the belly.

The next two hands are placed on the knees to perform the meditation seal, and the remaining hands are divided into bottles, bells, wheels, mirrors, arrows, tussahs, shields and other magic tools.With a peach-shaped body on the back, flame patterns are engraved on the outer edge, and multiple arms are engraved on the inside, with one eye in each palm.

The Avalokitesvara statue was pressed under a transparent glass plate, and this completely transparent glass surprised her.

Such a large transparent glass has indeed never appeared in Middle-earth now. There are several small pieces in the Dongping Palace, which are also treasured and regarded as treasures.Unexpectedly, an unknown little girl would hold such a large piece as a decoration, which made Princess Dongping even more puzzled.

Liu Mei didn't notice any transparent glass, she only valued the gift made by Yu'er for her, and ignored everything else.When Concubine Dongping mentioned this, she was taken aback, looked at Daiyu and said:
"How does Yu'er use such a precious thing? Auntie must have been born to Yu'er. I don't know where the Avalokitesvara with thousands of hands and eyes comes from. Yu'er knows."

"Don't worry about it, Auntie, it's just a little bit of filial piety. If Auntie likes it, it's worth it to appear here. As for the Avalokitesvara with thousands of hands and eyes, I used to study with my father and read a certain Buddhist scripture. :
The merciful and compassionate Guanyin Bodhisattva once vowed to save all living beings, but all living beings often feel powerless.So he turned into 42 Bodhisattvas of Great Mercy and Great Compassion, aiming to benefit all sentient beings.

Avalokitesvara's master Wuliang Buddha saw this and advised him not to be impatient, otherwise haste makes waste.

Infinite Buddha combined 42 bodhisattvas into one body, leaving only 42 arms, and let each palm grow an eye, representing an incarnation.

In this way, apart from the original two arms of Guanyin Bodhisattva, there are still forty arms, and each arm is matched with the number "25" in the three realms of Buddhism.

Yu'er then thought about Hugh, who worshiped the Guanyin Bodhisattva with thousands of hands and eyes devoutly, and would ensure that everything goes smoothly and there will be no misery.

On my aunt's birthday, Yu'er also just embroidered it, which shows that it is related to my aunt, so I dedicated it to my aunt, wishing my aunt all the best and endless happiness. "

Before Daiyu came, she had already planned her speech, and now she is talking about it with eloquence.

"It's really embarrassing for Yu'er. She has such ingenious ideas at such a young age. Zhen really deserves to be brought up by Lin Tanhua."

Concubine Bei Jing was amazed in her heart when she heard this. Yu'er was indeed deeply influenced by Lin Ruhai and Jia Min, and she was well-read at a young age.For a while, he slipped his mouth, but everyone listened to him.
