A Dream of Red Mansions Unexpected Visitors

Chapter 24 Daiyu's Heart-Frightened Jin Chuan's Death

When Daiyu returned to the room, Qingxuan was annoyed when she saw the swollen peach-like eye sockets on her face.He hurriedly called Zijuan and said, "Get a hot towel for the girl, and apply it well." At the same time, she asked Chunyu to bring two hard-boiled eggs from the small kitchen, rolled them on her eyes, and tossed for a while.Seeing that Daiyu's eyes were still swollen, Qingxuan said angrily to Daiyu: "I think Baoyu deserves this beating. Does the girl have to cry and live for him like this?"

Daiyu said: "I heard that it was a powerful person in the palace. I heard that Baoyu knew an actor who had gone away. He came to the mansion to beg for it. He beat him up for this master. What deserves him?"

Qingxuan sneered: "If it's just for this, the second master wouldn't beat him so hard. The girl also knows that Jin Chuan'er jumped into the well and died today, and the family is crying and trying to save him, so he can still be saved. It was the fault of Second Master Bao!"

Daiyu raised her eyebrows: "It's impossible. You also know that Baoyu has a temperament of sympathy and pity for jade. She treats these maids in a humble way. How can you let them die?"

Xueyan, who was tidying up the towels next to her, heard it and said, "Miss, this matter really has something to do with Baoyu. I heard Caixia from the second wife's room say that Baoyu asked for the rouge on Jin Chuan'er's mouth that day. It was a bit of a joke." In a word, Madam saw it, and Madam wanted to drive Jin Chuaner out, but Baoyu didn't say a word. After leaving for a few days, Jin Chuaner threw himself into a well and died."

Daiyu scolded: "Nonsense, a good girl's family, if she goes out, she will no longer be a servant, and she won't just seek death like this."

At this time, Zijuan also came over and heard what everyone was saying, and also interrupted: "The girl also knows that in our house, the big maids around the masters live better than ordinary girls, and they wear Silk and satin, wearing gold and silver jewellery, even fat chickens and ducks are tired of eating every day. Since the empress visits her relatives, they can even eat such good things as Poria cream and rose dew. How can I be willing to go out. Besides, when it is usually a marriage, the master rewards the silver and waives the deed to go out. Being kicked out like this must have violated the taboo of the master's family. How can I find any good people in the future. Jin Chuan'er's departure is equivalent to falling from the fairy world to the mortal world, and sooner or later he will die."

Qingxuan said: "I don't like the way Baoyu treats maids like this on a daily basis. They pamper them lawlessly one by one. If they do something wrong in the future, who can he save. I also know that Baoyu's nature is like this, but he was born in a greenhouse. The flowers and plants in the garden have not withstood the wind and rain, how can they adapt to the weather outside, they are just withering."

Daiyu asked Qingxuan sincerely: "Then how should we treat them? If everything is done according to the rules, what's the point!"

Qingxuan smiled: "What's the matter, the most important thing to be a slave is to recognize your identity, not to be inferior or arrogant, to regard yourself as a young lady, it is inevitable that your heart is higher than the sky, and your fate is thinner than paper; Cowardly, I lost the master's face. There is a line in my heart about what to do and what not to do, hold on to this line, there is nothing to get over, the girl is doing very well on weekdays."

Daiyu sighed: "Even though Jin Chuan'er was at fault again, Baoyu was too irresponsible. If he had persuaded the second wife that day, with his wife's love for her, he might be able to bypass Jin Chuan'er."

Seeing Daiyu like this, Qingxuan shook his head: "Oh, actually, you don't have to think too much about it. Without the consent of the second wife, no one who gets close to Baoyu will have good results. The second wife regards Baoyu as her lifeblood. If at that time Baoyu begged for mercy, maybe my wife would be even more angry."

Daiyu was speechless, and after a while, she added: "Since that's the case, go to Jin Chuan'er's house tomorrow and bring them 50 taels of silver, and quietly don't tell anyone. This is all I can do."

Qingxuan always thinks of that little benefit when looking at Daiyu and people. Even if the Rongguo Mansion falls in the future, Daiyu will definitely save Jiamu, Baoyu and Sanchun sisters without hesitation.So he sat down and told Zijuan: "Go and call Chunyu, and then tell everyone outside to go out, and let Chunyu tell the girl why I don't refrain from looking at the people in this house with the greatest malice."

After Chunyu came, after hearing Qingxuan's words, she became strange: "Didn't my sister say not to tell the girl for the time being?"

Qingxuan smiled wryly: "I'm really worried about Yu'er's temperament. You can tell the girl to understand what kind of situation she is in now."

Chun Yu started to talk: "Miss also knows that since we moved to Zilingzhou, we have a small kitchen again. I am in charge of making some medicinal food for the girl, and Xia He is in charge of making snacks and porridge, so I also know a little about medicine. Because the girl didn't need to take the ginseng Yangrong pill, I put it away, but I found that the color of the medicine was wrong at the time. After smelling it, I broke it up a little and found that it was all made of debris. Good people will get sick if they eat it, let alone girls."

After saying this, no one in the room spoke, only the sound of Daiyu's sobbing, and suddenly heard a sound from outside, everyone was startled.I hurriedly opened the window and looked out, but there was no one there. Suddenly, the parrot raised by Daiyu fluttered its wings and read another sentence: "Once the spring is over, the beauty will grow old, and the flower will fall and the person will die." Then I was relieved.

Daiyu cried and said: "They have already used up all the money of the Lin family, and even embezzled a lot of things from the old lady's room. How have I ever said a word, just like this, don't let me go, I can still go where?"

Qingxuan picked up the handkerchief and handed it to Daiyu: "Yu'er is crazy. Back then, everyone knew that the girl's family had sent a large sum of money to this mansion. The second wife didn't want the girl to marry Baoyu, but the things had already been used." Quite a lot. In the future, if the girl marries someone else, and the dowry is carried out, others will know that Jia’s family has embezzled the girl’s money. The old lady is also thinking about the girl’s marriage to Baoyu for the girl! Don’t worry, girl, with us, we I won't let anyone harm the girl." The others also nodded heavily.

Daiyu wiped her tears and said: "It turns out that even the old lady can't protect me in this world, thanks to you. Sister Qingxuan, don't worry, I will never marry Baoyu. It's just that my grandmother has a loving heart. How can we get her to stop thinking about it?"

Qingxuan said: "Girl, don't worry, Mr. Lin left us to take care of the girl, isn't it just to help you solve these problems. Go to bed, girl, it's getting late."

Daiyu just rested, and dreamed of her father again, and then she felt a little comforted, and a smile appeared on her teardrop face.Qingxuan who watched Gu Daiyu in the middle of the night sighed silently when he saw it, and gently covered Daiyu with a quilt.
