Red Mansion Daiyu, the Rise of the Lin Family

Chapter 204 I Need a Female Manager

When the news of Lady Jia's illness reached the Lin family, Lin Daiyu was listening to Zijuan report the news about Qingwen.

"Miss, I have temporarily placed her to live with me."

"When anyone asks me about it, I always say that I rescued him from outside."

"I'm afraid that if the Jia family knew she was Qingwen, they would embarrass the young lady."

"She can eat now. After a few days of recovery, she will be able to kowtow to the master."

Lin Daiyu put down the book in her hand and said,

"I don't expect her to kowtow to me, and there's no need to be sneaky. She can still call herself Qingwen openly."

"I'm not afraid of embarrassment or misunderstanding. If anyone really asks, I'll say I was rescued on the way to the crematorium."

"Not dead yet."

"It's just a matter of one sentence, so there's no need to be sneaky or hide it."

"Unless you change your appearance, you will not be recognized."

"To be honest, I'm looking forward to seeing others being surprised. Gnashing their teeth and looking helpless."

“It’ll make me happier.”

Zijuan, a decent person, really couldn't understand Lin Daiyu's current interests.

I had no choice but to nod my head in agreement.

Lin Daiyu continued,

"Just tell her that I don't keep idle people here, and see what she can do."

"To be honest, I don't need a personal maid."

After hearing what Lin Daiyu said, Zijuan was even more surprised and stunned. For people like them, what they learned since childhood was how to serve others.

If I don't want to be a maid, do I have to be worthy of being a master?

"Miss, do you think highly of her? She is very capable. She can learn needlework after watching it for only once, while we have to learn it three or four times."

"She has deft hands and can tell how to make any needlework or clothing pattern on the market just by looking at it."

"She is also willing to do needlework for the young lady!"

Zijuan is truly a good sister who spares no effort in promoting Qingwen.

Lin Daiyu rolled up the book and patted Zijuan twice.

"Besides being a maid, she is so capable, can't she think of anything else?"

"Then what's the point? Being a housekeeper, it's not time for her to get married yet!" Zijuan pondered over it but couldn't figure it out.

Lin Daiyu felt that she needed to convey her thoughts to her maid.

Being able to manage people and get work done, he would definitely be a professional manager in the future.

"Zijuan, I don't lack a housekeeper. You will be my housekeeper in the future."

"I'm in need of a great manager."

"A female shopkeeper who can grasp the fashion trends."

There was a loud rumble like thunder exploding in the sky, shocking Zijuan to the point of being dizzy.

Lin Daiyu looked at Zijuan's pale face as if she was playing a prank.

"Just ask her if she dares?"

"Hahaha..." Lin Daiyu smiled and went to Jia Min.

Lin Daiyu's figure gradually walked away in the winding corridor, leaving Zijuan alone, stunned and disheveled in the wind.

……

Jia Min had just finished listening to Jia Lian's report and was busy packing her bags, feeling anxious.

Seeing Lin Daiyu coming, he hurriedly said, "It's just right, Daiyu, there's no need to notify you."

"Your grandmother is ill, and mother has to go and take care of her."

"Are you going with mom or..."

Before Jia Min could finish her words, she was interrupted by Lin Daiyu.

"No, mother, I will go with you."

"Otherwise, if you're alone, I'll be worried to death."

What Lin Daiyu said was particularly true. She felt that the Jia family was in a turbulent time now, and now a little white rabbit like Jia Min was gone.

It's easy for the wolves to eat it until not even a hair is left.

Each of them is not an easy task to deal with.

However, there was no such thing as illness in the original book. Grandmother Jia fell ill after learning that Jia Yuanchun died in the palace.

This time it came earlier than expected because something unexpected happened.

Lin Daiyu has complicated feelings towards Lady Jia. She doesn't want to get close to her, but she also doesn't want her to die of illness so soon.

It's best for everyone to keep to themselves. After all, there are blood ties and family ties that cannot be severed.

Even if there is a chance to save people, Lin Daiyu is only willing to save those girls, and for the others she can only respect their personal fate.

There were a few people who did evil things, and it is not unfair that they died.

Jia Min was naturally very pleased to see that Lin Daiyu was willing to go with her.

"Daiyu, we have to stay a few more days this time."

"Ask Zijuan to prepare a few more clothes." Jia Min reminded.

Lin Daiyu answered directly,

"Mom, don't worry about it. Let's go now. Someone will send the clothes and other things over later."

"We are going to take care of the sick, not to go on a picnic. We should dress casually to avoid appearing anxious."

"Let's go!"

Jia Min was stunned by Daiyu's words and immediately put down the clothes in her hands.

"Banxia, ​​prepare the sedan chair, we will leave immediately."

After saying this, the mother and daughter hurried out and headed straight for the Jia family.

……

When she arrived at Jia's grandmother's Rongqing Hall, Jia Min was shocked to find that there were several people taking care of her and the room was so crowded.

She had no room to intervene, and Mrs. Xing even spread out bedding on the couch opposite Lady Jia's bed, as if she had lived there all day.

Mrs. Wang also diligently served her medicine and food, and Yuanyang always stayed by her side to serve her.

Maids were constantly bringing and changing water, and the house was filled with people coming and going.

"Mom, how do you feel?" Jia Min had to squeeze through the crowd and asked with concern.

Grandmother Jia had caught a cold from her last visit to the Lin family. After returning, she was busy with searches and stayed up all night for interrogations. In addition, she was very angry. The combination of these factors eventually caused her to fall ill.

Although she was sweating after taking the medicine, the noise in the house made her upset and unable to rest.

Hearing Jia Min's voice, Jia Mu frowned and opened her eyes, "Who asked you to come?"

Grandmother Jia has always been strong-willed and was unwilling to show weakness to her daughter before the Lin family's affairs were resolved.

Jia Min was speechless for a moment and didn't know how to answer.

Mrs. Wang was secretly delighted when she saw this, thinking that this was a good opportunity to suppress and control Jia Min.

"Don't be so hypocritical. Everyone knows that you made your mother sick."

"Now you are pretending to be filial again."

"If you are truly filial, you will naturally know what your mother needs."

"She doesn't need a servant, don't you see? One more or one less person here won't make any difference."

Jia Min was flustered when she heard this. She wanted to quarrel but felt that the timing was not right. Lin Daiyu was unwilling to stay any longer.

"Mom, let's go. I think grandma is in good spirits."

"There are so many people showing filial piety here, we are really not the only one left."

"If you are really taking care of an illness, you need to stay here quietly and let your grandmother rest more."

"That's great. There are more than ten people in a room. Who knows if they are sincere or just acting?"

After saying that, he pulled Jia Min out, thinking that nothing good would come of staying here.

By then, there will be a lot of noise and you will have to worry about the rift.

We are here to provide timely assistance, not to add icing on the cake.

No one has arranged a place for me to stay for the time being, which is obviously embarrassing.

"Let's go and stay at Xiaoxiang Pavilion."

Fortunately, Lin Daiyu and Jia Min were accompanied by many maids and servants, who came in a group.

He hurriedly arranged the room, made a fire, and laid out the bedding he had brought with him.

Lin Daiyu saw that Jia Min was still confused.

"Mom, don't think about it. It's time to eat and sleep. They will invite us tomorrow."

The rustling of bamboos outside can help even a worried person fall asleep.
