Red Mansion: Taming the Overlord

But it turns out that Mother Jia was relieved too early, because Daiyu quickly said, "In the past few years, my grandmother, uncle and aunt have taken care of me, and my granddaughter will always remember it. I can't be filial at my knees in the future. Take care of your health and live a long life."

"What are you talking about? Why are you not here anymore?" Mother Jia asked with a slight change of expression.

Having said that, in fact, she herself knew that Daiyu really couldn't stay in Jia's house anymore.Not to mention anything else, let's just say that the Lin family is so private, and the Jia family held it in the palm of their hands, thinking that they would not be able to escape, so it would not take much trouble to leave Daiyu as a little girl.Now that all these things are donated by her, the situation is different.

Moreover, originally she planned to facilitate Baodai's marriage, killing two birds with one stone, but now the empress in the palace prefers Baochai, and from the perspective of future interests, the Xue family is a more reliable ally, so the Jia family can't keep Daiyu at all. of.Not only could she not keep it, but she had to choose a good marriage for her to marry.

However, Daiyu is not what she used to be, and she has the title of a village lord. Although there is no real benefit, the Jia family can't afford to neglect her.It is not beneficial to keep such a person, and it takes a lot of energy to take care of him. Who would want to?

When Jia Mu thought of this, she looked at Daiyu differently than before.

She really loved Daiyu, although this kind of liking may be indistinguishable from her liking cats and dogs, but she liked it anyway.But that was because Daiyu was well-behaved, submissive, sensible and obedient at that time.But now, Mother Jia looked at Daiyu with a strange gaze.

Because she had already thought that Daiyu might have thought of this situation when she donated her family property.

If this is the case, then this granddaughter who grew up under her nose has unknowingly learned many tricks, but she didn't notice it at all.For Jiamu, it is impossible to stay.

After all, Daiyu knew that those things were in the hands of Jia's family, but she donated them directly without any discussion. I'm afraid she didn't do it on the spur of the moment as she said, but planned it long ago.Perhaps she had already guessed that these things cannot be taken back, so she did this.

If this is the case, it means that Daiyu has lost trust in the Jia family.

Many thoughts flashed through Jia Mu's mind, some of them were emotional, but more of them were rational.Her feelings for this granddaughter suddenly became complicated.

She didn't expect that she would be set aside by the other party.

Mother Jia couldn't help being a little sullen.As the head of the family, she has long been used to everything being under her control, even the two sons, she would never dare to disobey anything she said.She has been pampered and always in a high position all her life. She has already developed such a habit, and she is naturally unhappy when she is suddenly tricked by a junior who thinks she will have no problems.

She even couldn't help but began to suspect that Daiyu might have just pretended in front of her in the past.

Or maybe, something happened in the middle that changed her.Thinking about Lin Ruhai's death from illness and after Daiyu's return, the relationship with Jia's family has always been somewhat estranged. Maybe, what did Lin Ruhai confess when he was dying?

These thoughts fluctuated in my mind in an instant, but they were quickly suppressed by Jia Mu, and finally turned into a clear decision: Fortunately, the empress in the palace took a fancy to Baochai, and this time it was just for eating. Fortunately, since she wants to leave, let's go.It also saves the Xue family from worrying.After all, I had a crush on Daiyu before, and many people knew that the Xue family might hesitate because of this, but if Daiyu left, she would appear open-minded.

Daiyu said, "I used to be young, and I was taken care of by the elders. But now that I am growing up, my surname is Lin. Although I am a girl, I can't bear the fact that my ancestors have no one to sacrifice. To be named a country lord is considered to have the foundation of standing, so I want to re-establish my lintel. I hope my grandmother will forgive me." Then he wiped his tears.

She said this sincerely.According to the rules of the Jia family, it is not allowed to sacrifice in the mansion at will. However, Daiyu is a girl and cannot go out, so whenever she misses her parents, she can only burn a stick of incense in her own room.I also have to worry that this is the Jia family, and the ancestors of the Lin family will not be able to enter.Especially during the New Year's Eve, every place is bustling with excitement, and those who have passed away have their offspring offering sacrifices. When she thinks about her parents and the old days, how can she not feel sad?

So these words are not just excuses.

When Jia Mu heard the words, she also shed a little tears, "You child has a heart. Pity me, Min'er, why did you leave us, the old and the young, and let go?"

The grandparents and grandson cried once. Although they didn't believe it, it was considered a promise.

When she calmed down and Daiyu formally said her farewell, Mother Jia remembered to ask, "If you move out from here, where will you live in the future?"

Could it be the Xue family?

In fact, it's not that Jia's mother didn't suspect that Daiyu was affected by Xue's family, but after thinking about it, she didn't think there was anything wrong. Besides, except for the borrowing of money, Aunt Xue and Baochai were still as close as before.As for the matter of borrowing money, it was later proved that Xue Pan did take the money to do business, and it was not because the Xue family refused to give it on purpose.

And that business is still doing very well. ——Mother Jia now regards Xue's family as her future in-laws, and naturally hopes that the Xue family's business will grow bigger and better, and she doesn't mind the fact that she didn't get any money at that time.One must know that opportunities to establish relationships with the Inner Mansion, the Eldest Princess' Mansion, and the palace are not so easy to come by.

In particular, making friends with the eldest princess's mansion will naturally be of great benefit to her mother's firm foothold in the palace in the future.

However, he still doesn't want Daiyu to live in Xue's house, and he always feels uncomfortable.

Daiyu shook her head and said, "Since I am self-supporting, I should find another place to live. I was going back to Yangzhou, but my godmother said that I will be alone when I go back. Even if something happens, everyone will support me. I am a girl. She can't rest assured. If I go back to Yangzhou, she will have to go back to Jinling to take care of me. Wouldn't it be a crime to let her old man run around for me like this? So I have written to Yangzhou to ask the old family to sell the old house. When the time comes Find another place to live in Beijing."

"Your godmother is right!" When she heard that Xue's family was going back to Jinling, Jia's mother was startled, and immediately said, "If your parents knew about it, they would naturally only hope that you are safe and well, and that someone will take care of you. If you are alone Living alone in Yangzhou makes them uneasy. As long as you have the heart, you can also be filial here. If you can't find a good house, just come and tell your grandmother, and I will ask your second elder brother Lian to find it for you."

"Brother Xue also said that he would find a house for me, let's see if we can find it." Daiyu said, "Fortunately, this matter is not urgent. Recently, I always dream that my parents are in Japan, so I feel uneasy and plan to stay for a long time. Fast in the temple and pray for parents. Others, wait until the filial piety period is over before making plans.”

When Jia's mother heard this, she knew that she might have been planning for this matter for more than a day or two, but she didn't notice it at all. While she was secretly wondering, her feelings towards her granddaughter became more complicated.

But she didn't know, in fact, where did Daiyu think of these things?It was all explained by Bo Yang before coming here.It's just that she has always been smart, and after listening to it, she understood the reasons for Bo Yang's various arrangements, so she spoke clearly and clearly, as if she had thought about it thousands of times and had a plan in mind.

Now that the matter has been settled, Daiyu doesn't plan to delay any longer and will move out immediately.Jia's mother had a headache when she thought that she would have to deal with other people's questions about the Lin family's property, so she didn't ask to keep her.

She lived in Xue's house and Jia's house for a long time before, so most of her things were moved there. It doesn't matter what stayed here, most of them belonged to Jia's house, so she packed them up Also easy.

At this time, other people also heard that she was leaving, and came to see her off one after another.Daiyu explained the reason with a smile, and then said, "Actually, it doesn't have to be like this. From now on, we'll still live in the middle of the capital. It's easy to walk around when we have time."

She had been away from Jia's house a lot in the past few months, and everyone else was used to it. Only Baoyu heard that she had moved out completely, and he went crazy like a bolt from the blue sky. He went to the old lady and begged her to let Sister Lin live. down.

The old lady had managed to deal with the people who left her son, daughter-in-law and Dongfu, and she was letting Yuanyang massage her head tiredly, when she heard her baby Yu'er making such a noise, she hurriedly got up to comfort her.However, Baoyu refused to stop as if he had lost his mind, and insisted that Daiyu stay.

The old lady promised perfunctorily, saying that she would keep her and never let her go, but she couldn't help but regret that she made the two of them get too close that day. At that time, Lin Ruhai was still alive, and the old lady had planned it... oh , don't mention it!Now that it's like this, it's better if Daiyu leaves, lest Baoyu can't let it go, and there will be troubles in the future, and it will be difficult to explain to Xue's family.

……

Shizhong Temple is located in the western suburbs of the capital. It is large in scale and prosperous in incense, and dignitaries and dignitaries often come and go.In this way, naturally many people came here admiringly, or became monks, or brought their hair to practice, or like Daiyu, just fasted and prayed for blessings, among them there were not a few female relatives.Therefore, Shizhong Temple simply set aside a separate area for female guests, and the daily life here is also bhikkhuni, very thoughtful.

Jia Lian personally sent Daiyu to Shizhong Temple under the order of Jia Mu. He had to ask the abbot here to explain the situation, but when he came, he found out that Xue Pan had already been waiting here.Naturally, the arrangements here have already been made properly, just waiting for Daiyu to move in.

This time, Daiyu came alone, without any maids to serve her.

This is what Bo Yang meant.For one thing, Zijuan, the maid who has been described in the original book, is Jia's family after all, so she may not be able to endure hardships with her here.And although the original book says that she has a heart for Daiyu, Bo Yang always feels that she may not have little affection for Baoyu.

——After a woman gets married, the maids around her often become her husband's housemaids or concubines. It is normal for people in this era. If they are as public as Wang Xifeng, they can only give Ping'er to Jia Lian.So it is normal for the little girl to have some thoughts about the future son-in-law.

But Bo Yang can't accept it, and he doesn't want Daiyu to be surrounded by such a person, so that she can't break up with the Jia family.

Secondly, it was Bo Yang who wanted Daiyu to be more independent.

The reason why Daiyu was so sensitive, delicate, and sorrowful in the past is certainly because of her personality, but in Bo Yang's view, part of it is because her life in Jia's house is too idle, except for joking with her sisters and doing work. Besides, there was nothing else to do.And other people have their own affairs, so they can't stay with her all the time, and in life, there are maids who take care of them very well, so she doesn't need to worry about it.

In this way, she will naturally have a lot of free time to read, think, and be in a daze, so she will think too much.

But now, there is no servant girl to serve her, so she has to do many things by herself.Practice has shown that physical fatigue can greatly relieve the feeling of loneliness and depression in the mind. ——Of course, this is also because Daiyu's situation is not hopeless, but bright, and she will take the initiative to accept these changes.

The temple is relatively simple, and there is nothing to worry about. Every day, the morning bell and the evening drum are calm, and there are things to do, so life is naturally very fulfilling.Coupled with proper diet and conditioning, her body must be able to slowly improve.This is a difficult time, what Bo Yang can do is to set up all the foreshadowing and preparations for her, and then let her go by herself.

When Xue Pan went to dismiss Jia Lian, Bo Yang was also talking with Daiyu.

"From now on, you will live here alone. If you have anything to do, you can find those masters. The house has been taken care of, and you won't be neglected." He explained with some anxiety, "This place is full of female nuns and female guests. , I can’t go in, my wife and Baochai will visit you once a month, other times, you can only rely on yourself to persevere. If you can’t get used to it, tell Baochai when the time comes, and we’ll find a way.”

Hearing what he said, Daiyu laughed, "Brother Bai, are you afraid that I won't be able to endure hardship?"

"No..." Bo Yang was going to explain, but after thinking for a while, he said, "You...you grew up with rich clothes and good food, let alone other things, there has never been a shortage of material things. How can I rest assured? ?”

"Everyone living here is like this. If others can do it, so can I." Daiyu said, "I know my brother's intentions, and I will remember them in my heart. I dare not forget them for a moment. Now that I have come here, I will definitely not forget them." I will let you down, and I will not let the previous efforts be in vain."

Bo Yang thought that there was actually no harm in her having such an idea, so he nodded and said, "That's all, you just remember to measure. Anyway, there are us."

Daiyu nodded, and looked at him with some reluctance, "I've settled down here, brother, let's go back too. It's getting late, and the city gate will be closed any later."

Bo Yang said, "I will say one last thing."

"I told you before, if you don't want to cry when you think about it, you just look away." He took a breath and said slowly, "Now I only hope that you will always remember this sentence and never cry again in your life." Weep, safe and sound."
