Chapter 303: Winter Snow Minor Illness
The boatman put away the cable, and the boat turned around, ready to leave Jinling and go to the capital. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
On the bow of the ship, Jia Lian looked at the convoy led by Jia Huan and slowly advancing towards the city gate. Daiyu and the others were in the car, and a very strange feeling welled up in his heart. Like, something has gone off track.
"Ugh..."
Jia Lian sighed softly. The old lady wanted him to take Miss Lin back to Jiafu, but now he could only hand it over to Brother Huan to take care of according to Uncle Lin's last wishes.
Zhao'er stepped forward and said, "Second master, the bow of the ship is windy, go back to the cabin." ”
Jia Lian nodded.
…
A convoy of six horse-drawn carriages slowly marched along the streets of Jinchuan Menli. The city of two million people shows its prosperity and prosperity on a winter morning, blooming with the unparalleled cosmopolitan atmosphere of this era.
Jinling, the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, the political center and cultural center of Jiangnan.
Jia Huan rode a horse and slowly followed Daiyu's carriage. He had just said a few words to Aunt Pei.
If Jia Huan knew Jia Lian's feelings, he would definitely tell him what had changed: fate!
In the original book of the Red Mansion, because he learned that Jia Yuanchun had chosen Fengzao Palace during the journey, Jia Lian took Lin Daiyu to return to the capital day and night. At that time, Lin Daiyu was lonely.
And now Daiyu is accompanied by Aunt Pei, the old housekeeper Yuanbo, the nurse Mama Wang, Zijuan, Raider, and Snow Goose.
Jia Huan's newly bought residence is located in He'an Street, not far from Yingtianfu Fuxue in Jinling South City. Outside the street is the Wuding Bridge on the Qinhuai River, and along the river to the east, there are Wende Bridge, Confucius Temple, Jiangnan Gongyuan. To the upper reaches of the Qinhuai River is Fuxue, Dagongfang and so on.
The residence of the mountain chief Zhang Anbo is in the Dagongfang. A few miles to the north, there is Runde Fang, where Jiafu is located. Six dynasties of gold powder, ten miles of Qinhuai River. Jia Huan's new residence is located in the famous ten-mile Qinhuai River scenery belt.
The convoy entered Ho'an Street. The slaves selected from Jiafu followed. Jia Huan and Steward Liu explained a few words and entered the backyard. Lin Daiyu's luggage is most books, which are enough to load two large cars. The servants were sent to Daiyu's residence.
Jia Huan, Daiyu, Aunt Pei, Zijuan, and Raider sat down in the main hall of the backyard to speak. Qingwen and Ruyi poured tea and came in.
The decoration in the hall is elegant and freehand. Zijuan walked around, looking at her new accommodation. The tiredness of the journey on his face did not disappear, and he turned in from the side hall, and said with a happy expression: "Third master, the environment here is very good." ”
Jia Huan smiled, "The previous owner was an official of Zhishi, and I entrusted my friend to buy it for me." It's about the same as Mochizuki, where I live in the house. In the front and back yards, there are more than a dozen houses. Enough for twenty of us. Sister Lin lives with peace of mind. I'll adjust what I'm not used to. ”
When they got off the boat just now, Jia Huan and Lin Daiyu said a few words briefly. However, at that time, Daiyu and other ladies wore hats and could not see their faces. Look at it again at this time: the flower looks like the moon, the facial features are exquisite, and there seem to be tears on the pretty face like jade. The delicate and colorful appearance makes people feel pampered.
Lin Daiyu was wearing a cyan long skirt outside, and said softly: "I listen to Brother Huan's arrangement." ”
Jia Huan was slightly stunned, and then smiled. The arrogant, smart, and beautiful Lin Daiyu was so obedient that he almost didn't react for a while. Daiyu's performance was too different from the inherent impression of Daiyu in his mind. Anyone who has read Dream of Red Mansions knows what kind of character Lin Daiyu is. It's a bit unimaginable to be so well-behaved!
He is now Daiyu's guardian!
However, Jia Huan didn't have much pride in his heart, but felt a heavy responsibility. The girl believed in her heart that he could take care of her.
Jia Huan has a general relationship with Daiyu in Jiafu. Far less familiar than Baochai, Tanchun and Daiyu. Daiyu can joke and joke with Baochai and Tanchun, but not in front of him. Therefore, Jia Huan did not ask Lin Daiyu to change some of her bad habits now. Just told Daiyu to rest for a few days, recuperate her body, and relax her mood.
Daiyu had just arrived in Jinling, and the two sides were still in the stage of getting acquainted with each other. It's not a good thing to talk about it in a shallow way. In the future, he will slowly make Daiyu change.
Daiyu sat in the chair and answered one by one in a soft voice. felt the faint concern in Jia Huan's words. It made her feel a little warm. It's like the sun shining on you in this cold winter.
Aunt Pei listened on the side, looking at the calm and meticulous Jia Huan, and felt slightly relieved. It seems that the old man's choice makes sense.
Zijuan covered her mouth and smiled, she knew it would be like this. She believed that the third master could take good care of the girl.
While everyone was talking, Daiyu's nurse Mama Wang came in and replied, "It's all ready." Girls, aunts and grandmothers are tired from the journey, so they can go to rest first. ”
When you arrive at your new home, you take a bath and then rest. The room was already ready. Mama Wang prepared bathing utensils and clothes.
Jia Huan got up and said, "Sister Lin will rest first, and at dinner, I will talk to Sister Lin again." ”
Jia Huan's original intention was to live separately from Lin Daiyu to avoid damaging Daiyu's reputation. However, when the mountain chief Zhang Anbo heard Jia Huan talk about this, he persuaded him.
Living with your own cousin, of course, you need to pay attention to etiquette. But if you let your relatives live outside, it can't help but be chilling. It can be handled as if a relative lives at home. Daiyu is not alone, but also followed by aunts, maids, and wet nurses. This will not be criticized by mainstream voices. In the future, even if there are some rumors, the gentleman is frank. Compared with the responsibilities of the orphan, it can be ignored. It's easier to take care of staying at home.
…
In Jia Huan's new house, it is divided into a front yard and a back yard. In the backyard, Jia Huan, Qingwen, and Ruyi live in the middle. And Daiyu and Aunt Pei live in the courtyard in the east.
Jia Huan arranged for Yuan Bo to be in charge of the six diligent and dutiful servants he had selected from Jiafu. Four men and two women. The monthly money is from Jia Huan's side. It can be regarded as having nothing to do with Jiafu Gongzhong. These men followed him in the future. Mainly responsible for Jia Huan's chores here, such as laundry, sprinkling and cleaning.
Chef, Jia Huan invited three. Responsible for the kitchenette. Two are good at Su cuisine, and one is good at Huaiyang cuisine. Try to take care of Lin Daiyu and Aunt Pei's tastes. Jia Huan's own taste, in Jiafu, is all Jiangnan cuisine, and he is also a habit of eating.
In modern terms, Jia Huan is now buying a villa in Nanjing, hiring nannies, maids, and cooks. Of course, with his current net worth, these expenses can be afforded. Even in a prosperous place south of the Yangtze River, five thousand taels of silver is more than enough for two years. Except for the five hundred taels of silver that cost to buy this house, Jia Huan actually didn't have any big expenses.
On October 14, Daiyu arrived in Jinling. Time flies by after that. Jia Huan's life is nothing more than three points and one line. Running with his family, Guozijian, and the mountain chief's mansion, he studied hard to prepare for the exam. Every day after dinner, I would visit Daiyu.
Daiyu brought a lot of books from home and read and wrote at home every day. Zijuan is a maid who dares to speak, if Daiyu needs anything, she will tell Jia Huan directly if she feels uncomfortable. Jia Huan adjusted them one by one. This saves a lot of trouble.
The first light snow of winter covered Jinling on the 24th. The falling light snow, with the cold peculiar to the south, lingers and bites.
On the third day when the light snow melted, Jia Huan went to the door of Shi Fang Wang and invited a doctor in Nanjing Tai Hospital to see Daiyu. The seasons change, and Daiyu falls ill again without accident.
Seeing off Imperial Physician Wu, Jia Huan groaned and returned to the backyard. Ice ridges hanging upside down under the eaves. Jia Huan stomped his feet and entered the courtyard to the east. The attacker greeted him, and said softly and gently: "Third master..."
Jia Huan smiled dumbly, he knew that the attacker was a little afraid of him. Nodding his head, he sighed, "It's not going to be a good winter this year." Sister Lin slept? ”
Winter in the south is characterized by wet and cold, which is very different from that in the north. He was used to being in the south in his previous life, and now he has been in the capital for 4 years, and this year he still needs a process of adaptation in the south.
"Not yet. As he spoke, he asked hesitantly, "Third Master, how is the girl's condition?" I see you frowning as you come in. "Serving Daiyu, she is also doing her best.
"Let's go in and talk."
The attacker followed Jia Huan into the inner room. The charcoal stove is warm. Aunt Pei, Zijuan, and Qingwen are accompanying Daiyu. Daiyu was sick and lying in the bed, hugging the lake-blue brocade quilt. The flowers look haggard.
Jia Huan shook his head and told Zijuan: "Change the air for half an hour every morning, noon and evening." "He doesn't know how to do medicine, but he still knows a little about health care.
Qingwen brought a chair for Jia Huan.
Aunt Pei was in her twenties, her appearance was beautiful, she was wearing a light cyan long skirt, her figure was slender, and she asked anxiously: "Third master, how is Yu'er's condition?" ”
"It's not a big deal. Imperial Doctor Wu said that it would be better to take medicine and rest for a while. Jia Huan told him all about his condition.
Aunt Pei stroked her chest with her hand and breathed a long sigh of relief. She has followed Lin Ruhai for many years, and she can be regarded as having some insight. Seeing that Jia Huan invited the imperial doctor in the city, the best doctor, he knew that Jia Huan would not harm Daiyu.
"That's good." Zijuan and Raider breathed a sigh of relief. The atmosphere in the room was slightly more relaxed. It's really Daiyu's body that is really worrying.
Jia Huan comforted Aunt Pei a few words, and asked Daiyu, who was lying on the pillow, "Sister Lin, how do you feel?" ”
Lin Daiyu said softly: "Dizzy." ”
Jia Huan said: "Sister Lin's illness is certainly caused by the change of the seasons. Most of them are heart disease. The deceased is long gone, and the living are like Sifu. After Sister Lin recovered from her illness, I took Sister Lin to take a walk inside and outside Jinling City. ”
After listening to Imperial Doctor Wu's diagnosis of Daiyu today, Jia Huan now has a little bottom in his heart. In addition to the wind chill and cold, Daiyu's body does have hidden dangers. There is a congenital deficiency that needs to be maintained, but it has not yet reached the point where there is no cure.
She died of illness in the future, most likely because of heart disease. Love is not long! As written in "Vain Eyebrows": Think about how many tears can there be in your eyes, how can you not help but flow from autumn to winter, and spring to summer!
From now on, recuperate and strengthen exercise, there is no hope of recovery, and there should still be hope for a good life. He groaned just now, frowning unconsciously, just for this matter.
Before Lin Daiyu could answer, Aunt Pei and Zijuan both said, "This is okay." ”
Qingwen pursed her lips and smiled: "Third master, there are only spring outings and autumn outings, and there are winter outings." There is not much to see in winter. ”
Jia Huan laughed, "Who said no?" The wonders of winter and winter. Mochou Lake is the first scenic spot in Jinling. I haven't been there yet. You don't see anything in the carriage. When the time comes, women disguise themselves as men and walk around the lake. ”
Jiangnan has an open atmosphere. And there were also women weavers. It is common for young women to walk in the streets. It's not for nothing that the little lady who smashes people with a hydrangea is not nothing. However, Daiyu still has to cover it up a little when she travels.
In Jia Huan's opinion, it is best to put on an ugly makeup for Daiyu. Otherwise, with Daiyu's beauty, it is easy to be watched. Thinking of this, Jia Huan thought: That Lin girl in the capital is a middle master.
Aunt Pei and the maids in the house who said this all laughed, a little yearning.
Daiyu smiled lightly.
…
Daiyu was sick, and Jia Huan asked the imperial doctor and bought medicine, but the relationship with her became closer.
Just when Jia Huan was studying, discussing with the maids at home, Aunt Pei, and Lin Daiyu to go to Mochou Lake to see the winter scenery, a small boat from Yangzhou arrived in Jinling. (To be continued.) )
