Red Mansions Counterattack Raiders
Chapter 102 Lin Daiyu
"Housekeeper, you arrange two more people to go to Rongguo Mansion. This time, find a way to enter the Xiaoxiang Hall to follow Miss Lin, and then tell her the news about the medicinal materials." Liu Wuhen said while changing clothes, he was about to attend At the gathering of the young masters in Beijing, even if there are few who think highly of him, he can't make people forget the Liu family.
Seeing the young master who was becoming more and more sensible, the housekeeper felt distressed, sighed, and said in doubt: "Master, you are thinking of Miss Lin in this way... It's not that the old slave is careless, this is really inappropriate."
Liu Wuhen waved his hand, "I don't have so many ideas, I just want to get to know each other. Miss Lin is a strange woman. If you keep it secret, others won't know."
The housekeeper frowned worriedly, but it was the first time that the young master was so concerned about a matter, so he still agreed to do it.
Liu Wuhen straightened his clothes and went out in satisfaction and got on the carriage. When he passed the Rongguo Mansion, he lifted the curtain and looked at it. He felt that it was ill-advised to let all the servants who scouted the news back last time. Growing up in seclusion, I really don't understand the twists and turns in the big family.This time he thought that it was useless for his family to keep these medicines. Since Lin Dai was in a hurry to ask for it, maybe they could become friends. Since he returned to Beijing, he felt that he was out of tune with others, and suddenly met Lin Dai who was better than him. In addition to being curious, I also had a feeling of the same kind, and I was eager to make friends subconsciously.
The two big stone lions at the entrance of Rongguo Mansion sat majestically, looking very quiet, but the mansion across the door was another scene.Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng were more attentive to Jia Mu after their accident. Every day, they would go to the west courtyard early to greet Jia Mu to wash and eat. On this day, Lin Dai and Sanchun were left by Jia Mu to talk. Jia Mu thought that Lin Dai hadn't talked with Baoyu for a long time After playing together, he asked with concern: "Yu'er and Baoyu are having trouble? I don't see you coming together."
Lin Dai smiled and said: "The old lady thinks too much. I'm just afraid of disturbing Baoyu's recuperation. A while ago, Baoyu was startled again and said that there is a ghost in the place where I live. I'm afraid he will be scared when he sees me."
Jiamu frowned disapprovingly, "I think it's because Baoyu thinks you don't go to see him talking nonsense, what the hell is there?"
Lin Dai shook her head, "It's always good to be careful, and we're all grown up, and it's time to learn something. Sister Bao often taught me that a woman is virtuous without talent, and that she should be a virgin, quiet and elegant. I thought it took a lot of time to start the poetry club, but now I should practice female red in the room more, and I will study when Baoyu recovers from illness."
Mrs. Wang saw that Jiamu was going to say more, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Daiyu is right. Those poems look good, but they are of no great use to our girls. We should do more female reds like Baochai, and be quieter." That’s good. Old lady, yesterday a master said he wanted to watch Baoyu study. This year Baoyu didn’t know if he had violated the Tai Sui. It’s about glory. Besides…” She smiled, and cast her eyes suggestively at Lin Dai, “We know that there is nothing in Daiyu’s yard, but Baoyu is also special. The person is so clever, this, this is really unknown, after all, it hasn't been long since Uncle Lin left, and there is no one in the Lin family, so I'm afraid he won't worry about Daiyu being alone."
Mother Jia gave her a sharp look, but she didn't say a word. She listened more or less, she was afraid of the eventuality, no one could compare with Baoyu. Thinking of this, the old lady began to regret the two jade The sons made a couple together, Daiyu lost her mother when she was young, and her younger brother also went. After a few years, her father lost her father, and there was no one in the family. Could this...could it be the death of relatives?Mother Jia was startled, seeing Daiyu's ruddy complexion, inexplicably thinking of Baoyu lying on the bed with a pale face, she was afraid that Daiyu had robbed Baoyu of her blessing, otherwise Baoyu would be shocked for no reason Come on, you still say there are ghosts in Xiaoxiang Hall?
Mother Jia's expression turned ugly, "The second child, your godmother who is looking for Baoyu, come and show him. Baoyu has lost a lot of weight. If anything happens, it will really kill me! His godmother is quite Some magical powers, please come politely."
Mrs. Wang hurriedly responded, "Yes, don't worry old lady, Baoyu's godmother also loves him, and she will definitely come if she knows he has something to do."
Mother Jia nodded and took a sip of tea, "It's good for the girls to stay in the room as long as possible. Don't bother with Yingchun and the Laoshizi Poetry Club. They should get married in a while."
Mrs. Wang poured tea for Jiamu, and said with a smile: "don't worry, old lady, I will look at each other. I will choose some good ones for them, especially Daiyu. We have been entrusted by our sister and uncle Lin. Seeing her happy."
Mother Jia said "Yes" in satisfaction, then waved her hand and said, "I'm tired, let's all go back." She never looked at Lin Dai again.
Lin Dai lowered her eyes and did not move her expression. She bowed to Sanchun and said goodbye. After leaving the door, she walked slowly to the garden. This is the only way to return to Rongxi Hall from the west courtyard. He nodded, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.As expected of Mrs. Wang who has been in the back house for decades, her casual words carried countless hints and traps. Not only did she confirm that there was a ghost in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but she was also said to be an ominous person who restrained her father, mother and younger brother. People, considering how much the old lady loves Jia Baoyu, it seems that she immediately disliked her, right?
Although it was consistent with her original intention, it was really not happy to be calculated and disgusted like this.Lin Dai stood in the garden for a while before quietly leaving with the snow geese.
A moment later, Mrs. Wang walked into the garden dignifiedly and gracefully, with a smile on her face and a smug look in her eyes.This was the first time she let the old lady dislike Lin Daiyu willingly. Back then, Jia Min stepped on her in front of the old lady. Later, the old lady shamed her because of Lin Daiyu several times. Even her son was fascinated by Lin Daiyu. This mother and daughter can be said to hate to the bone.Now the old lady will definitely not marry Lin Daiyu for Baoyu. After a while, she will marry people far away with a dowry that is not worth it, just like those concubine sisters of Jia Min. Who will remember it after a long time? !
The things lost these days have not been exposed, and Madam Wang has relaxed a lot. It is just an ordinary thief who loves money. She once again solved the eyesore. After a while, I only had time to scream and fell to the ground!
The maids were startled, and rushed forward, only to see Mrs. Wang embarrassingly spitting out clods of grass clippings and sneezing from time to time, with a few black marks on her face that made her lose her appearance.A few servant girls squatted around her and frantically tried to help her up, but just as they tried hard, Mrs. Wang screamed again.
"Don't move! Don't touch! My waist! It hurts—" Madam Wang burst into tears instantly, and her face was as ugly as green and white.Not only because of the fall and injury, but more importantly, because she, a wife of an aristocratic family, made such a big embarrassment in front of many servants, what face would she have to go out in the future?
"Madam? God, how did this happen?" Zhou Rui's family quickly got the letter and ran over. Seeing that Mrs. Wang was twisted, she didn't dare to touch her, and hurriedly assigned everyone, "You, hurry up and invite the doctor. You guys, immediately go find someone who understands in the mansion to come and bring the wife back. Give me all this quickly, I won’t spare you if the wife’s injury is delayed!"
The people who were pointed out hurriedly saluted and ran away in a hurry, but Mrs. Wang was not at all relieved. It would be impossible for her to lie here, but if someone came to carry her, it would alarm dozens of people and let everyone know about it. I'm afraid that the entire family will laugh at her behind her back in no time.She became angry from embarrassment, and after being rinsed by the waiter of Zhou Rui's family, she sternly reprimanded: "Where is the gardener? Who is in charge of this? Do you dare to plant such pungent things in the house? Do you want to harm people? And the ground is What's the matter? The sweepers didn't clean it up, did they go to drink and gamble?"
Zhou Rui's family was stunned for a moment, and blurted out, "Ma'am, what is pungent?"
Mrs. Wang was also taken aback, "Didn't you smell it? Ah Choo! This is it, it smells so bad, and it smells like pepper!"
Zhou Rui's family followed her fingers and saw nothing wrong. They even leaned forward to smell it, shaking their heads and looking at her in bewilderment, "It really doesn't have any smell, it's just an ordinary flower scent."
The servant girl who heard the cry and ran over looked at each other, looked at Mrs. Wang with fear and vigilance, and they didn't smell anything wrong, but Mrs. Wang said that, could it be that she wanted to take down someone to vent her anger?Besides the slippery ground was not clean, there were so many people running around just now but no one fell down, even Mrs. Wang had nothing at her feet.
Mrs. Wang was only concerned about her anger, and didn't pay attention to the expressions of the people around her. She patted and shouted: "You think I'm going to lie to you on purpose? What are you doing here? Why don't you hurry up and see if anyone is coming? A bunch of people who are not good at things, They're all idiots! Ah Chi!"
Zhou Rui's family immediately got up and ordered people to watch at the intersection. The rest of the people retreated to the side and stood silently. The benevolent second wife suddenly became furious, and the people who saw them didn't even dare to breathe.
The people in the mansion heard that the second wife had a twisted waist, so they asked someone to help them, but no one dared to step forward, they are not doctors, usually they are rough and fleshy, and they can walk home by themselves enduring the pain, and they landed on the wife They can't even move, and they won't be rewarded if they get it right. Maybe their wife hurts them and they'll be scolded. If they don't, it's probably the result of the whole family being sold out.Therefore, all the people who were asked said that they did not understand these things in fear. Even those who had twisted their waists said that they were in unbearable pain at that time.
After they said this, Mrs. Wang's maids didn't dare to tell them to go, so Mrs. Wang lay on the ground in the garden for half an hour, and she didn't even have the energy to curse before waiting for the doctor.It was not the first time for the doctor to see a person lying on the ground, but Mrs. Wang regarded this as a lifelong shame, wishing to find a crack in the ground to sneak in, and she was extremely angry at Zhou Rui's family and all the servants.
After tossing and turning for a long time, everyone finally carried Mrs. Wang back to Rongxi Hall under the guidance of the doctor. The doctor prescribed medicine for external application and internal administration, saying that she had been cold on the ground for too long, and told her to stay in bed for more than a month, otherwise she would not be able to support her. Well, it will definitely hurt when it rains.
Mrs. Wang's earlier complacency was gone, only anger was left. After the old lady found out, she was also very tired of her. Accidents happened all day long, and the house was restless.However, because of this, the old lady was more sure that there was something dirty in the house, and hurriedly sent someone to invite Ma Daopo, but no matter how hard she searched, she couldn't find Ma Daopo, as if the person had disappeared out of thin air.
Later, I found a family not far from Ma Daopo's residence, and the person said, "Ma Daopo? It's almost a witch. She must have done too many evil things. Unexpectedly, there is no ashes left after being struck by lightning." I saw it with my own eyes that day, a bowl-sized thunderbolt struck the witch's head, and she disappeared in an instant, alas, we don't want to talk about this kind of person, let's go, let's go."
After hearing the letter, the old lady immediately went into the small Buddhist hall and knelt in front of the Buddha to recite sutras. She was terrified. Jia Baoyu recognized Ma Daopo as her godmother.What can I do?
The old lady began to have trouble eating and sleeping, and had to recite scriptures for two hours in the small Buddha hall every day. She regarded Jia Baoyu as the only descendant who could support the Rongguo Mansion. It's over!
Aunt Xue also felt that the Jia family was very unlucky these days. She also felt that the garden smelled bad, but it was not as serious as Mrs. Wang. I hesitated about my marriage.In private, he couldn't help asking Baochai what he meant.
Xue Baochai was also a little uneasy, "Since Baoyu and Xiangyun were startled last time, everything seems to have changed, and I can't tell what's wrong, but I always feel panicked."
Aunt Xue sighed: "me too, alas, Baoyu is very sick now, this... your eldest brother Zhu left before he was twenty, and Baoyu is like this now, or let's let this marriage go. "
Xue Baochai pondered for a moment and nodded, "That's fine, even if sister-in-law Zhu has a son, she is still in an embarrassing situation, and she can't be a family in the mansion. She doesn't have much status. It's really not right. And if Baoyu disappears as soon as I enter the house, when the time comes Aunt must blame me."
"That's not it! She told me that Li Wan is a bastard," Aunt Xue made up her mind immediately after hearing this, "Let's rest our minds for now, let's take a look, and I will also find a way to look at others Don't be afraid, my son, I won't make you feel wronged."
After visiting Mrs. Wang, the Xue family's mother and daughter also began to live in seclusion. Mrs. Wang recuperated from illness, and Jia's mother prayed to Buddha. Lin Dai and Sanchun listened to Jia's mother's words and stayed in the room to be female celebrities. It was not half lively, and there was a sense of lifelessness and ominousness.
Lin Dai felt that this little butterfly fanned her enough. The crowd was so aggrieved that the original owner's enmity was avenged, and their final ending was also tragic. She could almost arrange to leave the house.It is definitely not possible to go directly, Zijuan, Xueyan and others who follow her have to be arranged, no matter what, there must be an aboveboard reason.
Before Lin Dai could think about it, she heard that there was a little girl in the yard who was redeemed by her family, and a new one was added.It was a trivial matter, but she found that the new little maid, Ye Er, was always rushing to her, serving tea and water, arranging vegetables and rice, and even cleaning the floor, but she didn't seem to be very scheming. like a climber.
Occasionally, when she was basking in the sun in the yard, she heard Ye'er not far away tell Xueyan and the others that there was a medicine hall in Beijing that had a particularly complete range of medicines, so she bought a batch of high-quality and precious medicinal materials, etc., and finally realized that there is something wrong with it. What's wrong, this Ye'er obviously approached her on purpose.
After dinner in the evening, she left Ye Er alone, "Tell me, how did you know that I wanted to buy medicine, and who sent you here? What is the purpose?"
Ye'er's eyes didn't evade, and her expression didn't show any fear. She smiled at Lin Daifu's body, "Miss Lin is smart, and she can see through it right away. The servant is from the Liu Mansion, and was sent by the young master to tell the whereabouts of the herbs. Maliciousness, the young master said that if a girl exposes the servant girl, the servant girl only needs to tell the truth, so as not to cause any trouble."
"Liu? Liu Wuhen?" Lin Dai was a little surprised, she didn't expect that the thief's family background was not bad.
Ye'er nodded, "It's the name of the young master. The young master told the servant to serve the girl carefully. If the girl has anything to do outside the mansion, just tell the servant. The servant has a way to spread the news."
Lin Dai frowned, "I only met your young master once. This is too much. Go back and tell him not to do unnecessary things."
Ye Er didn't bother, and directly took out a letter to Lin Dai, and bowed to leave, "The young master told me that if the girl doesn't like the servant to be served by the maidservant, she must go back to the house. The letter contains the address of the medicinal materials that the girl needs. But the girl please Listening to the servant girl, the Rongguo Mansion is in great chaos now, the girl must have a lot of things to do, and it will be much more convenient for the servant girl to spread the news to the outside world, please think twice."
Lin Dai opened the letter after she left and read it again. The letter was written by Liu Wuhen, saying that he would give those medicinal materials to her, and that he could not help but meet a master because he rarely met a master. Please don't He regarded him as a villain, and said that when he saw her before, he felt that she could be trusted for no reason, so he told her about his double identity, and hoped that she would not tell anyone about it. He also wanted to punish more corrupt officials, and he had a grudge against corrupt officials.
Looking at the densely packed pages of handwriting, Lin Dai always felt that this person hadn't had a good conversation with anyone for a long time. Otherwise, how could she be so defenseless against a "master" she just knew?But then she remembered that Qiao Feng and Duan Yu had just met and drank and sworn brothers, and the corners of her lips twitched. Could it be that people in the ancient world were so "informal"?It has the same effect as love at first sight.
Lin Dai burned the letter after reading it. She is an ancient woman now, and such things that attract people's attention should not be kept.She thought about the few medicines mentioned in the letter, which she had not yet found. From this point of view, the Liu family should have a deep heritage. If you don't want it, you don't know when you can meet it again, but if you want it, it's a favor. down.
Lin Dai sat cross-legged on the bed, surrounded by dozens of pots of flowers. With the advancement of her abilities, all the flowers went from bud to full bloom, then quickly withered and then gave birth to buds, while the stems and leaves below were the same.She has been able to separate plants to give birth at will, and the ability has gone a step further. As long as she gets the medicinal materials, it may take only a few days to give birth to hundreds of years.
After the power was stabilized, the surrounding flowers returned to their original appearance without any difference. Lin Dai slowly opened her eyes, touched her aching heart and sighed.Ability requires physical support, and the burden of being weak is also great. After she advances to the next level, she feels stronger on the outside and weaker on the inside. If she advances to another level, she may suffer from chest tightness and heart attack.
It seems that she has to owe the favor this time if she doesn't want to, she has no reason to put away the medicinal materials and die by herself.And looking at it from another angle, she should be very grateful to Liu Wuhen for helping her. This is the first person who has been kind to her besides Zijuan and her maids.
After figuring it out, Lin Dai didn't object to letting Ye Er stay. She promoted Ye Er to the same level as Zijuan and Xueyan, and then pawned a lot of jewelry through Ye Er, leaving only the original owner's parents to send She planned to use them as family heirlooms, and collected more than a dozen herbs from the prescription, and ordered them to put them all in the cabinet in her room.
Zijuan knew that the age of the medicinal materials should be paid attention to in the prescription, so she was puzzled by Lin Dai's move, and asked her why she didn't take the medicine as soon as possible, even if the age was not enough, it would still have some effect.Lin Dai only said that she doesn't feel any discomfort now, and she will use it when she feels unwell, and keep it for a few more years if she can.
Knowing that she was very happy after receiving the medicinal materials, Liu Wuhen asked her to come out and try again.Lin Dai searched for one night and went to the suburbs with Liu Wuhen. The two fought with all their strength, and it ended in a draw. With a little power enhancement, I am not surprised to be tied with Liu Wuhen who has a master now.
Liu Wuhen wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a hearty smile: "Miss Lin really didn't put in all her strength last time, you have such skill at such a young age, I admire you!"
Lin Dai found a rock and sat down, took out a water bag and took a sip of water, "Both each other, you didn't try your best last time. But listening to what you say, is it possible that there are very few skilled people in the world?"
Liu Wuhen nodded and said: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't want to make friends with the girl again and again. In fact, I have never seen anyone who can beat me except my master. I once wanted to visit the palace at night, but I was shocked. I met the Ouchi guards, and seven or eight of them didn't stop me." Speaking of this, he cupped his hands in embarrassment, "I'm also proud of learning something by myself. Please forgive me if I was rude last time. Miss Lin, forgive me."
Lin Dai waved her hand to show that she didn't care, but she was more interested in whether there was a gangster, "Didn't you guess that I was a killer before? Have you never seen a killer?"
"That's all I guessed. My master told me about it. Not only killers, but also gangs, alliance leaders, etc., but I have been back to Beijing for three years and have never seen those people my master said. Oh, yes, My master was already 120 years old when he passed away, so I think what he said might be about his youth. But now that I meet you, maybe what he said is true!"
However, Lin Dai felt that it was impossible. She did not learn from her master, but brought it from the end of the world.But seeing that Liu Wuhen likes to fight with others so much, it's better for her not to speak up, and let him divert some energy to find others.
After the two separated, Liu Wuhen remembered that he had forgotten to tell her about the evidence of the people in Jia's mansion. She was an orphan and lived in Jia's mansion. If Jia's mansion was questioned, she would have nowhere to go.Although she looks very powerful, but a woman must have a family to be good.Liu Wuhen shook his head, thinking to leave it alone, and ask her what she thinks next time we meet, there are still things from the Zhen family in there, once handed in, there is no way to reverse it.
When Lin Dai was free, she used supernatural powers to produce medicinal materials in her room, but occasionally the servant girl would come to her for something, and she had to cover it up, and it took half a month before she reached the level required in the prescription.She estimated the amount and cut some for Zijuan to boil the medicine. Zijuan thought she was not feeling well, so she hurriedly boiled the medicine, because until the medicine was precious, Zijuan stared at it all the time, not daring to move her eyes.
Lin Dai took it twice a day, and she obviously felt that her foundation had become firmer, and even after taking it for seven days, she didn't feel any discomfort at all.This time, she waited until Mother Jia asked for the pulse of peace and then invited the imperial physician to take the pulse. The imperial physician said that she was in good health and that she was well.After her body recovered, Lin Dai finally had no worries in this world.
Seeing the young master who was becoming more and more sensible, the housekeeper felt distressed, sighed, and said in doubt: "Master, you are thinking of Miss Lin in this way... It's not that the old slave is careless, this is really inappropriate."
Liu Wuhen waved his hand, "I don't have so many ideas, I just want to get to know each other. Miss Lin is a strange woman. If you keep it secret, others won't know."
The housekeeper frowned worriedly, but it was the first time that the young master was so concerned about a matter, so he still agreed to do it.

Jia Mu thought that Lin Dai hadn't talked with Baoyu for a long time After playing together, he asked with concern: "Yu'er and Baoyu are having trouble? I don't see you coming together."
Lin Dai smiled and said: "The old lady thinks too much. I'm just afraid of disturbing Baoyu's recuperation. A while ago, Baoyu was startled again and said that there is a ghost in the place where I live. I'm afraid he will be scared when he sees me."

Mrs. Wang hurriedly responded, "Yes, don't worry old lady, Baoyu's godmother also loves him, and she will definitely come if she knows he has something to do."
Mother Jia nodded and took a sip of tea, "It's good for the girls to stay in the room as long as possible. Don't bother with Yingchun and the Laoshizi Poetry Club. They should get married in a while."

Lin Dai lowered her eyes and did not move her expression. She bowed to Sanchun and said goodbye. After leaving the door, she walked slowly to the garden. This is the only way to return to Rongxi Hall from the west courtyard. He nodded, with a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.As expected of Mrs. Wang who has been in the back house for decades, her casual words carried countless hints and traps. Not only did she confirm that there was a ghost in the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, but she was also said to be an ominous person who restrained her father, mother and younger brother.

Mrs. Wang was also taken aback, "Didn't you smell it? Ah Choo! This is it, it smells so bad, and it smells like pepper!"
Zhou Rui's family followed her fingers and saw nothing wrong. They even leaned forward to smell it, shaking their heads and looking at her in bewilderment, "It really doesn't have any smell, it's just an ordinary flower scent."
The servant girl who heard the cry and ran over looked at each other, looked at Mrs. Wang with fear and vigilance, and they didn't smell anything wrong, but Mrs. Wang said that, could it be that she wanted to take down someone to vent her anger?Besides the slippery ground was not clean, there were so many people running around just now but no one fell down, even Mrs. Wang had nothing at her feet.
Mrs. Wang was only concerned about her anger, and didn't pay attention to the expressions of the people around her. She patted and shouted: "You think I'm going to lie to you on purpose? What are you doing here? Why don't you hurry up and see if anyone is coming? A bunch of people who are not good at things, They're all idiots! Ah Chi!"
Zhou Rui's family immediately got up and ordered people to watch at the intersection. The rest of the people retreated to the side and stood silently. The benevolent second wife suddenly became furious, and the people who saw them didn't even dare to breathe.
The people in the mansion heard that the second wife had a twisted waist, so they asked someone to help them, but no one dared to step forward, they are not doctors, usually they are rough and fleshy, and they can walk home by themselves enduring the pain, and they landed on the wife They can't even move, and they won't be rewarded if they get it right. Maybe their wife hurts them and they'll be scolded. If they don't, it's probably the result of the whole family being sold out.Therefore, all the people who were asked said that they did not understand these things in fear. Even those who had twisted their waists said that they were in unbearable pain at that time.
After they said this, Mrs. Wang's maids didn't dare to tell them to go, so Mrs. Wang lay on the ground in the garden for half an hour, and she didn't even have the energy to curse before waiting for the doctor.It was not the first time for the doctor to see a person lying on the ground, but Mrs. Wang regarded this as a lifelong shame, wishing to find a crack in the ground to sneak in, and she was extremely angry at Zhou Rui's family and all the servants.
After tossing and turning for a long time, everyone finally carried Mrs. Wang back to Rongxi Hall under the guidance of the doctor. The doctor prescribed medicine for external application and internal administration, saying that she had been cold on the ground for too long, and told her to stay in bed for more than a month, otherwise she would not be able to support her. Well, it will definitely hurt when it rains.
Mrs. Wang's earlier complacency was gone, only anger was left. After the old lady found out, she was also very tired of her. Accidents happened all day long, and the house was restless.However, because of this, the old lady was more sure that there was something dirty in the house, and hurriedly sent someone to invite Ma Daopo, but no matter how hard she searched, she couldn't find Ma Daopo, as if the person had disappeared out of thin air.
Later, I found a family not far from Ma Daopo's residence, and the person said, "Ma Daopo? It's almost a witch. She must have done too many evil things. Unexpectedly, there is no ashes left after being struck by lightning." I saw it with my own eyes that day, a bowl-sized thunderbolt struck the witch's head, and she disappeared in an instant, alas, we don't want to talk about this kind of person, let's go, let's go."
After hearing the letter, the old lady immediately went into the small Buddhist hall and knelt in front of the Buddha to recite sutras. She was terrified. Jia Baoyu recognized Ma Daopo as her godmother.What can I do?
The old lady began to have trouble eating and sleeping, and had to recite scriptures for two hours in the small Buddha hall every day. She regarded Jia Baoyu as the only descendant who could support the Rongguo Mansion. It's over!
Aunt Xue also felt that the Jia family was very unlucky these days. She also felt that the garden smelled bad, but it was not as serious as Mrs. Wang. I hesitated about my marriage.In private, he couldn't help asking Baochai what he meant.
Xue Baochai was also a little uneasy, "Since Baoyu and Xiangyun were startled last time, everything seems to have changed, and I can't tell what's wrong, but I always feel panicked."
Aunt Xue sighed: "me too, alas, Baoyu is very sick now, this... your eldest brother Zhu left before he was twenty, and Baoyu is like this now, or let's let this marriage go. "
Xue Baochai pondered for a moment and nodded, "That's fine, even if sister-in-law Zhu has a son, she is still in an embarrassing situation, and she can't be a family in the mansion. She doesn't have much status. It's really not right. And if Baoyu disappears as soon as I enter the house, when the time comes Aunt must blame me."
"That's not it! She told me that Li Wan is a bastard," Aunt Xue made up her mind immediately after hearing this, "Let's rest our minds for now, let's take a look, and I will also find a way to look at others Don't be afraid, my son, I won't make you feel wronged."
After visiting Mrs. Wang, the Xue family's mother and daughter also began to live in seclusion. Mrs. Wang recuperated from illness, and Jia's mother prayed to Buddha. Lin Dai and Sanchun listened to Jia's mother's words and stayed in the room to be female celebrities. It was not half lively, and there was a sense of lifelessness and ominousness.
Lin Dai felt that this little butterfly fanned her enough. The crowd was so aggrieved that the original owner's enmity was avenged, and their final ending was also tragic. She could almost arrange to leave the house.It is definitely not possible to go directly, Zijuan, Xueyan and others who follow her have to be arranged, no matter what, there must be an aboveboard reason.
Before Lin Dai could think about it, she heard that there was a little girl in the yard who was redeemed by her family, and a new one was added.It was a trivial matter, but she found that the new little maid, Ye Er, was always rushing to her, serving tea and water, arranging vegetables and rice, and even cleaning the floor, but she didn't seem to be very scheming. like a climber.
Occasionally, when she was basking in the sun in the yard, she heard Ye'er not far away tell Xueyan and the others that there was a medicine hall in Beijing that had a particularly complete range of medicines, so she bought a batch of high-quality and precious medicinal materials, etc., and finally realized that there is something wrong with it. What's wrong, this Ye'er obviously approached her on purpose.
After dinner in the evening, she left Ye Er alone, "Tell me, how did you know that I wanted to buy medicine, and who sent you here? What is the purpose?"
Ye'er's eyes didn't evade, and her expression didn't show any fear. She smiled at Lin Daifu's body, "Miss Lin is smart, and she can see through it right away. The servant is from the Liu Mansion, and was sent by the young master to tell the whereabouts of the herbs. Maliciousness, the young master said that if a girl exposes the servant girl, the servant girl only needs to tell the truth, so as not to cause any trouble."
"Liu? Liu Wuhen?" Lin Dai was a little surprised, she didn't expect that the thief's family background was not bad.
Ye'er nodded, "It's the name of the young master. The young master told the servant to serve the girl carefully. If the girl has anything to do outside the mansion, just tell the servant. The servant has a way to spread the news."
Lin Dai frowned, "I only met your young master once. This is too much. Go back and tell him not to do unnecessary things."
Ye Er didn't bother, and directly took out a letter to Lin Dai, and bowed to leave, "The young master told me that if the girl doesn't like the servant to be served by the maidservant, she must go back to the house. The letter contains the address of the medicinal materials that the girl needs. But the girl please Listening to the servant girl, the Rongguo Mansion is in great chaos now, the girl must have a lot of things to do, and it will be much more convenient for the servant girl to spread the news to the outside world, please think twice."
Lin Dai opened the letter after she left and read it again. The letter was written by Liu Wuhen, saying that he would give those medicinal materials to her, and that he could not help but meet a master because he rarely met a master. Please don't He regarded him as a villain, and said that when he saw her before, he felt that she could be trusted for no reason, so he told her about his double identity, and hoped that she would not tell anyone about it. He also wanted to punish more corrupt officials, and he had a grudge against corrupt officials.
Looking at the densely packed pages of handwriting, Lin Dai always felt that this person hadn't had a good conversation with anyone for a long time. Otherwise, how could she be so defenseless against a "master" she just knew?But then she remembered that Qiao Feng and Duan Yu had just met and drank and sworn brothers, and the corners of her lips twitched. Could it be that people in the ancient world were so "informal"?It has the same effect as love at first sight.
Lin Dai burned the letter after reading it. She is an ancient woman now, and such things that attract people's attention should not be kept.She thought about the few medicines mentioned in the letter, which she had not yet found. From this point of view, the Liu family should have a deep heritage. If you don't want it, you don't know when you can meet it again, but if you want it, it's a favor. down.
Lin Dai sat cross-legged on the bed, surrounded by dozens of pots of flowers. With the advancement of her abilities, all the flowers went from bud to full bloom, then quickly withered and then gave birth to buds, while the stems and leaves below were the same.She has been able to separate plants to give birth at will, and the ability has gone a step further. As long as she gets the medicinal materials, it may take only a few days to give birth to hundreds of years.
After the power was stabilized, the surrounding flowers returned to their original appearance without any difference. Lin Dai slowly opened her eyes, touched her aching heart and sighed.Ability requires physical support, and the burden of being weak is also great. After she advances to the next level, she feels stronger on the outside and weaker on the inside. If she advances to another level, she may suffer from chest tightness and heart attack.
It seems that she has to owe the favor this time if she doesn't want to, she has no reason to put away the medicinal materials and die by herself.And looking at it from another angle, she should be very grateful to Liu Wuhen for helping her. This is the first person who has been kind to her besides Zijuan and her maids.
After figuring it out, Lin Dai didn't object to letting Ye Er stay. She promoted Ye Er to the same level as Zijuan and Xueyan, and then pawned a lot of jewelry through Ye Er, leaving only the original owner's parents to send She planned to use them as family heirlooms, and collected more than a dozen herbs from the prescription, and ordered them to put them all in the cabinet in her room.
Zijuan knew that the age of the medicinal materials should be paid attention to in the prescription, so she was puzzled by Lin Dai's move, and asked her why she didn't take the medicine as soon as possible, even if the age was not enough, it would still have some effect.Lin Dai only said that she doesn't feel any discomfort now, and she will use it when she feels unwell, and keep it for a few more years if she can.
Knowing that she was very happy after receiving the medicinal materials, Liu Wuhen asked her to come out and try again.Lin Dai searched for one night and went to the suburbs with Liu Wuhen. The two fought with all their strength, and it ended in a draw. With a little power enhancement, I am not surprised to be tied with Liu Wuhen who has a master now.
Liu Wuhen wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a hearty smile: "Miss Lin really didn't put in all her strength last time, you have such skill at such a young age, I admire you!"
Lin Dai found a rock and sat down, took out a water bag and took a sip of water, "Both each other, you didn't try your best last time. But listening to what you say, is it possible that there are very few skilled people in the world?"
Liu Wuhen nodded and said: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't want to make friends with the girl again and again. In fact, I have never seen anyone who can beat me except my master. I once wanted to visit the palace at night, but I was shocked. I met the Ouchi guards, and seven or eight of them didn't stop me." Speaking of this, he cupped his hands in embarrassment, "I'm also proud of learning something by myself. Please forgive me if I was rude last time. Miss Lin, forgive me."
Lin Dai waved her hand to show that she didn't care, but she was more interested in whether there was a gangster, "Didn't you guess that I was a killer before? Have you never seen a killer?"
"That's all I guessed. My master told me about it. Not only killers, but also gangs, alliance leaders, etc., but I have been back to Beijing for three years and have never seen those people my master said. Oh, yes, My master was already 120 years old when he passed away, so I think what he said might be about his youth. But now that I meet you, maybe what he said is true!"
However, Lin Dai felt that it was impossible. She did not learn from her master, but brought it from the end of the world.But seeing that Liu Wuhen likes to fight with others so much, it's better for her not to speak up, and let him divert some energy to find others.
After the two separated, Liu Wuhen remembered that he had forgotten to tell her about the evidence of the people in Jia's mansion. She was an orphan and lived in Jia's mansion. If Jia's mansion was questioned, she would have nowhere to go.Although she looks very powerful, but a woman must have a family to be good.Liu Wuhen shook his head, thinking to leave it alone, and ask her what she thinks next time we meet, there are still things from the Zhen family in there, once handed in, there is no way to reverse it.
When Lin Dai was free, she used supernatural powers to produce medicinal materials in her room, but occasionally the servant girl would come to her for something, and she had to cover it up, and it took half a month before she reached the level required in the prescription.She estimated the amount and cut some for Zijuan to boil the medicine. Zijuan thought she was not feeling well, so she hurriedly boiled the medicine, because until the medicine was precious, Zijuan stared at it all the time, not daring to move her eyes.
Lin Dai took it twice a day, and she obviously felt that her foundation had become firmer, and even after taking it for seven days, she didn't feel any discomfort at all.This time, she waited until Mother Jia asked for the pulse of peace and then invited the imperial physician to take the pulse. The imperial physician said that she was in good health and that she was well.After her body recovered, Lin Dai finally had no worries in this world.
